i would have to say football


altho as a sport to play personally, i played both

cricket definetly requires more skill, it looks easy but when you get a rock hard ball thrown at about 70mph its abit hard to stop it from hittin them sticks, i compare it to tennis, cause there both dull to watch, they look pisseasy to play but once you actually play, you can appreciate the talent needed to be a good player although its not your kinda sport


whereas with football, its a endurance thing, you need to be kinda fit to play 90 minutes and your body aches later on that day or the next day like you been bellyflopped by a sumo wrestler, but i still love it, i dont play anymore, but its great to watch to

yea cricket does require alot of skill. theres bowling, batting and fielding.

all this soccer business is confusing. y cant it all b called the smefing in all countries.

i usually knock the sticks over wit me bat or just hit them wit me feet smehow -so i never play cricket.

Rounders is more my thing-so much easier n soo much mre fun, gr8 2 play during the summer in the park or wherever.

i rember we used 2 play in ma garden n we used them big old garden chairs as the posts. n i got hit on the face wit a rounders ball! i was such a day dreamer.

karom, wat a legendary game. remember in bd wen every1 used 2 b playing that til late outside the basha balanced on 2 chairs n every1 from the village would cme crowd round the board. i was the karom champ for a short period of time. but then i lost 2 my mum. i think we got a board smewhere.

but the best sport 2 play is basketball, or netball but i bet u guyz would never agree on that 1.

Check this:

in cricket, the fastest bowler bowled at a speed that is about the GENERAL speed for a pitcher in baseball.
in cricket, the bat is 10x (perhaps an exxagerration) thicker than a baseball bat, and its got a flat side, making it easier to hit.
in cricket, you just run back and forth. in baseball, you gotta run around THREE bases that are quite spaced (tho it doesnt appear so on television).
in cricket, you can get 6 runs by hitting over a distance that is soooooooo much smaller than that of baseball.

the only thing I can give cricket is the fact that nobody wears gloves...

(BTW Star, it was us canadians that invented Basketball. And Hockey. And Lacrosse. )
