NOT EVERYTHING IS FOOTBALL: CRICKET IS THE 2ND MOST POPULAR SPORT IN THE WORLD AND GENERATES MILLIONS OF DOLLARS!
It is
evident that soccer is the sport with the most fans in the world, with
approximately 3 thousand 500 million fans. But although it sounds very
unfamiliar, the second sport with the most followers is cricket PAKISTAN SUPER LEAGUE TEAMS 2018, with
approximately 2.5 billion. This unique sport generates millions of dollars in
sponsorships and is present in some countries in Europe, Oceania and the bulk
in Asia ... I tell you about this:
Cricket is a
sport similar to baseball, where they play 11 vs 11 and throw a ball to which
the opponent must hit him with a shovel, looking to run to the other end and completing
a race. This sport originated in England several hundred years ago and by the
18th century it was already the most popular sport in the country. Later with
the epoch of colonial expansion, England exported its practice to the countries
it dominated.
Currently
cricket is played in England, Wales, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh,
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Zimbabwe and some other Caribbean countries
with British influence.
The number
of fans (2 thousand 500 million) is concentrated in a few countries, but it is
an attractive sport because of the population reach. Taking as a reference that
FIFA enters approximately $ 4 billion dollars every 4 years with the World Cup,
cricket is not far away as it has budgeted to enter just over one thousand 500
million dollars in the period from 2010 to 2015, for sponsorships ,
transmission and licensing rights.
