Expert Answer
Cricket is different from other games in many ways. These are as listed below:
- Test Cricket - a form of Cricket - is long drawn which continues till 5 days and still can end in a draw. No other modern team like football, tennis or baseball taken even half as much time to finish a game.
- The length of the pitch is specified – 22 yards; however, the size or shape of the ground is not. Even the sizes of the ball, bat and stumps have been regulated over a period of time unlike the ground. Most other team sports such as hockey and football lay down the dimensions of the playing area but cricket does not.
- Unlike golf and tennis, cricket has refused to remake its tools with industrial or man-made materials: plastic, fibre glass and metal.
- Also, cricket was formed well before team games like soccer and hockey and it gave itself rules and regulations so that it could be played in a uniform and standardised way.
