    I don't know whether its true that "cricket is the 2nd most popular sports after the soccer". No. of countries where this game is popular is on a very lower side, but its extreamely popular in India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, England, Australia, West Indies, New Zealand and becoming popular in other countries as well. Cricket world cup is gonna start on 19th Feb, 2011. Here is a great resource for watching the live cricket streaming of the world cup matches, live scorecards, results, and schedules in your local timezone: Live cricket streaming

    i got cricket and its a piece of sh-t. the customer service sucks air. they act like they don't have a clue as to what is going own. also they do not write down anything that is said or what they did to help you. so you have to start all over when you talk to another person. if anyone knows the ceo of this company then let me know because i got a some chose words for him or her.

    I actually have no issues at all with the service itself. I don't drop calls, I get all my texts, everything works as it should. The problem I have is with the customer service. If you have to call in for any other reason apart from paying a bill then you will end up wanting to beat your head into a desk before it is all over with. When I initially got my phone the caller I.D. said a different name. I'm guessing the previous owner of the number I had. I would call customer service and they would tell me it's fixed just give it (insert a time frame here ranging from 24 to 72 hours). I did that 3 times and then could not get a live person on customer service for 3 solid weeks. The IVR would just loop. Follow the prompts and it would take you right back to the beginning again. I would try all hours in an attempt to get through to ANYONE. Finally, after 3 weeks I did reach an actual human, at that point I wanted a supervisor. He give me the same thing. Yadda, yadda, yadda, it will be fixe... Read more

    The Huns had a game similar to cricket. They used severed heads instead of cricket balls. To translate the name from the Hunnic Language is a little difficult, but it means "cockroach."

    I love cricKet! I've had them for 3 years now and I don't ever plan on switching! I live in nashville so I get great coverage! But just the other week, I switched off my dad's plan on to my own plan under my own name. Before that, I was on the $45 plan which gave me unlimited talk, text, pix/vid, web, long distance, mexico text, and 411! It was all I needed except for nationwide coverage... This was something that i really wanted, and i went great lengths to try to get it. I tried boost mobile (BIG MISTAKE DON'T EVER GET BOOST), and I was getting ready to try straight talk by tracfone, but I decided it would be to complicated and just stuck with cricket. Good thing I did cause when my parents were kicking me off their plan, cricket had an amazing sale on their plans, $5 off! So i got the next best plan for the same price! now i do have nation wide coverage cause cricket gives me 30 roaming minutes each month. I know thats not a lot but its enough for because I rarely travel. And it... Read more

    This cell phone is the basic $50.00 Cricket phone. I bought this with PayGo service. The phone has the worst sound quality as far as cell phones go. It echoes, is scratchy and hard to hear callers. I am constantly being told I" cannot hear you", and I am constantly saying to the callers, "I can't hear you!" I am not sure if it is just the phone itself, or the crappy Cricket coverage and phone service. I wish I never bought this piece of S....!!! I am trying to sell it on CL, but no takers! In addition, the $1, $2 per day plans fail to tell you that you are charged roaming etc.

    Two stars here as cricket may be dull but it's still more interesting and has got more going on than baseball - a simple game for young kids - and golf.

    Cricket is a game of mental strength, endurance, tactics, pre match preperation and overall - skill!

    Cricket is good because you can sit out in the sun and watch it, while eating crisps and heckling. Also they have a tea break every 30 minutes, which is very refined. I know 1 very good looking cricketer, but he may be an exception to the rule

    Cricket is similar to Baseball in some ways- for example, a ball is used and a bat is used and there is a 'bowler'. Cricket requires most skills, such as endurance, agility, speed, accuracy without going overboard-except where Tests are concerned, but Tests are boring. The only fault is the existence of the Tests, which are incredibly boring, but it is quite easy to actually hit the ball, unlike baseball, where it is damn near impossible. Try it.

    It combines everything that is required in a sport - skill, toughness (facing a 90mph ball), Athletic ability (fast bowling), mysticism (spin bowling), fitness, stamina, strategy, statistics and most importantly concentration (the first mistake you make may be your last).

    Although this game is quiet lenghty but requires great amount of skill like soccer. Far better than BASEBALL. Try it once.

    It surprises me more Americans don't like it given their fondess for sport statistics - cricket has more than enough. And it's the grandaddy of baseball. Of course it requires concentrating for more than five minutes at a time. Cricket combines so much of what is required for a great sport - great skill, strategy, tenacity, flair, excitement, a certain element of mysticism (look at Murali and Warne in action...how do they do that?). It also has a code of conduct that puts the onus on the professionals to act honourably at all times, on or off the field, to preserve the integrity of the game and the players in it. You can only really understand how devastating the recent match-fixing allegations are if you understand the spirit of cricket. Cricket is life, a philosophy, a true sport and it's immense fun. 1.5 billion people can't be wrong.
