The game of cricket has gained popularity around the world. There are a lot of countries in the present time that have shown their high interest in the game and are participating in global events. The long history of the game and its international importance is incredibly significant when we talk about its role in the economy of certain countries.
It all started in England and then India emerged as the second most valuable player over the years. Although West Indies and Australia have been known to be the most aggressive sides that have a remarkable history in the World Cup tournaments.
In the present day, most people know that cricket is most popular in India. This is further supported by the fact that, for example, many Bollywood movies are based on cricket, and most of the sponsorships in the world tournaments are Indian. Domestic leagues like IPL in India are popular globally and all international players play a leading role in the tournament. Moreover, the reason cricket is immensely popular is also because the excitement in the crowds remains unmatched whether it is a 5-day long game (test match) or the shortest T2O format game.
The fascinating thing here is to explore what people usually do during cricket matches and what is the latest trend that is gaining popularity.
Get ready for a five-day long game
Matches that go on for up to five days are demanding for the crowd to watch. Prepare yourself with other types of entertainment for the breaks! For instance, add some excitement with live casino. There are popular card games like Andar Bahar, Teen Patti, etc, and new options to consider as well. Many casinos have mobile applications that make user-friendliness better and come with exclusive deals for players.
Fantasy sports: A fun opportunity
Another interesting trend is when people try fantasy sports. The users choose a team of their choice and win rewards after the same players perform well in the real match. For instance, Dream11 is exceedingly popular in IPL wherein the players make their teams through strategic thinking and gain rewards. Many popular players are brand ambassadors of these platforms and thus increasing the credibility for users.
Cricket in our hearts
With IPL around the corner, everyone is preparing for the best tournament ever with ten teams this season. Making a strategy and devoting time to various things is a better option. Starting with an easy approach and slowly making progress is the best answer for the newcomers. All these options are also great opportunities to make friends and get involved in the happenings around the globe.
Cricket today is providing everyone with a platform that incorporates many things. The stadiums become a business area wherein small vendors earn their livings and the sponsors put in a lot of money in advertisements. The broadcasting rights are also expensive nowadays since the TRP (Target Rating Point) increases every day.
