Truth be told, a progression of Codes of Law has administered this game for more than 250 years. Much the same as baseball (which could be called cricket's cousin in light of their likenesses), cricket's fundamental element is the technique in question and that is the primary motivation behind why cricket fans love the game to such an extent.

    Junior Cricket Australia’s victories in India have boosted popular enthusiasm for one of the world’s great games. Cricket encourages excellence and is indeed a game for champions. However, the game which has given scope to the masterful skills of W.G.

Not all youngsters develop at the same rate, and there are other reasons why kids may arrive at their first primary school encounter with cricket, without possessing even rudimentary ball skills. The child who comes to primary school from an environment of backyard cricket, older siblings and sportive parents begins organised sport with a momentum which is not shared by all.
