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.
