Nowadays Cricket and Soccer...


Nowadays many countries compete for a sport, but lot of time its Cricket and Soccer competing from other countries. Ex: Italy vs. Mexico for soccer. Who is better NOWADAYS in football (soccer), I'm not talking about a long time ago we all know that Mexico could own USA easily in the past but now nobody cares about the past! The past is gone so I honestly think that USA is better than Mexico. And that 5-0 win was such bull, Mexico used there A team (mostly) and USA used their C team (mostly), while the USA A team was in the CONFEDERATIONS CUP. Besides the wins by Mexico in Aztecs and in the 09 gold cup, I don't really no any other time Mexico beat the US, so I think USA is better right? Every time I watch soccer I can never think that Mexico can beat USA. USA is so much better than Mexico. Nowadays black people in other countries don't play Soccer accept USA. In USA in black communities black people does play Soccer but the other people in other countries decided not to play because I think they're not really interested in play Soccer as the Americans. I guess they will come back to play Soccer in other times. Australia and India has competed, but Australia has won. Sri Lanka moves ahead of South Africa in third place as Ireland leapfrogs Zimbabwe. What are the Rankings and Ratings for the last games in 2011? Well, Australia has 1 rank and 131 rating, India has 2 and 118, South Africa has 3 and 118, Sri Lanka has 4 and 117, and England has 5 and 106 rating. As you can see England has the poor rating of all the countries. So nowadays as you can see there are lots thing going on everywhere that some of that we don't even know, but i gave you some of the information between soccer and Cricket. I hope you did get the information you wanted.

Wecome!

Hello, my name is Dharinee and I go to school in Pittsburgh high school area. Today I am going to talk to you about why I choose this topic "Cricket vs. Soccer." When I choose this topic I was confused because I thought that this topic is really hard but it isn't.


I choose this topic because I knew some of the information about it. Then I found some more information and finally I decided to choose this topic. When I was looking for more information I learned some things about Cricket and  Soccer that I didn't know about. The other facts I found were very interesting to me because I never knew about it. When was in India there was a play ground near my house. So every day I go there to hang out with my friends and the boys always play Cricket. I watch them playing Cricket every day. As I more watched I really got interested in Cricket. I like how Cricket is played with flat bat and a round ball. It is so fun to watch and play. I think Cricket is so easy to play even I didn't play Cricket before. When I came to U.S.A I didn't know what Soccer was but then I found out that its a game then I learned from my friend how to play Soccer. As I played more I really got into it and I really good at it. Since from there I love to play Soccer from now on. These aren't the only sports I like to play. I like to play Basket Ball, Soft Ball, and Base Ball. Since I love sports I choose Cricket vs. Soccer because I really like these two sports to play. :)

Welcome!

Hello, my name is Dharinee and I am a student in a Pittsburgh area high school. I go to South Fayette and I'm in 9th grade. I would like to talk to you about how Cricket is different than Soccer and some more information about each sport. I hope you get the information that you need. I hope you enjoy my blog. 


Cricket is  the most fun and popular sport. Everybody knows what cricket. Cricket is more popular in India and Austrelia. This sport is played in other countries too. In cricket there are 11 players in each team. There is also a reserve player called a "twelfth man." who is used whenever a player is injured during play. At first view, Cricket is similar to baseball, with players batting a ball and trying to score as many runs as possible. Cricket is played with a flat bat, rather than a rounded one, and players do not run around a square to score a point, but instead run forward to reach the opposite end of the pitch. If the ball is hit enough to go far, a player may keep running back and forth between the two ends. Cricket is played in a grassy rectangle measuring 66 x 10 feet (20.12 x 3:05m). There are two sets of wickets that are made up of three wooden stumps and two bails each. These are placed at each end of the field.


Soccer is a really playable sport in the United States and in Mexico. Lots of children loves to play this sport. This game is played by a single round ball (the soccer ball ). In both teams there are 11 players. Both teams compete to get the ball into other team's goal, therefore scoring a goal. The team that has scored more goals at the end of the game is the winner; If both teams has a tie in goals, then the gae is a draw. Soccer is played in a field that is 120 x 80 and the length 100-130yds, a width from 50-100yds.
I think now you what is the difference between Cricket and Soccer. I hope you learned somtheing from my blog and enjoyed it.
