- Cricket is a bat-and-ball sport popular in many countries, often referred to as "the gentlemen's game." Just like baseball, it involves two teams taking turns to bat and field, with the objective of scoring runs while trying to dismiss the opposition. However, there are several key differences that make cricket a unique and captivating sport.
In cricket, each team has 11 players, and the game is typically played in two innings. During the batting team's turn, one player from the opposing team (the bowler) delivers the ball to the batsman, who attempts to hit it and score runs by running back and forth between two sets of stumps. Unlike baseball, where bases are used, in cricket, the batsmen run on a straight pitch between wickets.
Similarly to baseball, the fielding team aims to get the batsmen out. In cricket, a wicket can be taken in various ways, such as getting the batsman bowled (hitting the stumps with the ball), caught by a fielder, or leg before wicket (LBW) if the ball would have hit the stumps but was obstructed by the batsman's leg.
One significant difference is that cricket doesn't have a fixed number of innings. Instead, it continues until a predetermined number of overs (a set of six deliveries by a bowler) are bowled, or all batsmen are dismissed. Matches can last for several hours or even days in the case of Test cricket, making it a more strategic and patient game than baseball.
Additionally, cricket fields are much larger than baseball diamonds, and the playing area is circular. The bowler can deliver the ball overhand or underhand, unlike baseball's strict overhand pitching. Moreover, cricket allows for multiple bowlers to take turns during an inning, adding variety and tactics to the game.
Overall, cricket shares similarities with baseball in terms of the bat-and-ball nature and the objective of scoring runs while dismissing opponents. However, its distinct rules, formats, and playing style make it a captivating and beloved sport in its own right, capturing the hearts of millions of fans worldwide.
Top 10 cricket players from various countries were widely regarded as follows:
1) Virat Kohli (India) - One of the greatest batsmen in modern cricket and former captain of the Indian cricket team.
2) Kane Williamson (New Zealand) - New Zealand's captain and a technically skilled batsman known for his elegant style.
3) Joe Root (England) - England's captain and a prolific batsman with an excellent technique.
4) Steve Smith (Australia) - One of Australia's finest batsmen with unorthodox but effective stroke play.
5) Babar Azam (Pakistan) - Pakistan's captain and an elegant batsman with exceptional timing and footwork.
6) David Warner (Australia) - An aggressive Australian opener known for his power-hitting.
7) Jasprit Bumrah (India) - India's fast-bowling sensation, known for his deadly yorkers and pace.
8) Kagiso Rabada (South Africa) - A South African fast bowler with raw pace and excellent skills.
9) Trent Boult (New Zealand) - A left-arm swing bowler from New Zealand, known for his precision.
10) Ben Stokes (England) - An all-rounder from England, known for his powerful hitting and valuable contributions with both bat and ball.
Widely considered some of the best Cricket players. - Sport
Arguably the biggest grudge match in Test Cricket, between England and Australia ("The Ashes") is currently being played out in England at the moment.
My dad watched the women's, is watching the men's today and flicking over to the women's world cup. Ohh and the golf.
@@wereleopard58yepihavetwo2💀🔥
@@wereleopard58yepihavetwo2 I've been swapping between the women's football, Ashes cricket, and Tour de France all evening here in New Zealand!
@@jamesdignanmusic2765 Same here in Vegas but instead of women's football I've been watching major league cricket :)
@@grahamstubbs4962😂😂😂 it's the game for respect. Coz English Cricket is dead.
The India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup game on the 23rd of Oct 2022 at the MCG had EVERYTHING!!
The biggest events in the cricket calendar are (hopefully not too controversially):
Cricket world cup: This is a one day format (each team get 50 overs) tournament. Played every 4 years with the men's competition later this year and the women's competition happened last year.
T20 world cup: Twenty20 format tournament played every 2 years. Both men's and women's due to be played next year.
IPL: The Indian Premier League. This is the premier T20 franchise tournament that takes place every year. It's comfortably the richest cricket tournament in the world and draws the top players from around the world. India is probably the most obsessed with cricket of any nation and the spectacle of the IPL shows it. Other T20 franchises include (but aren't limited to) the "Big Bash" (Australia), "T20 Blast" (England), "Pakistan Super League" (Pakistan), and most recently "Major League Cricket" (USA).
The Ashes: First conceived in 1882 when Australia beat England on English soil for the first time and Australian media wrote an obituary for English cricket, saying "the body will be cremated and the ashes taken to Australia". Since then, England and Australia have alternated tours to each other to play series' of Test matches (multi-day matches where teams bat 2 innings each) in order to win these "ashes". Often produces some of the best test cricket and sporting drama in the world. It's currently taking place in England with the 4th test of 5 in progress.
And any game which is India V. Pakistan
It was the English media that wrote the obit for English cricket. It was an Aussie lady who presented an urn supposedly containing the ashes of a cricket bail to the English captain when England toured there in 1883. They (the Australian lady and the English captain) later married.
@@eddisstreet You're right, it was the English media.
@@paparazzi.IndianFootball Good point, I was going for events that happen on a regular schedule, but India v. Pakistan is a great cricket rivalry too.
I wouldn’t include IPL. It’s a meaningless domestic league in comparison to the others.
To deal with the question first, there are world cups for theT20 and One Day format. The next One Day format one will be held in India in the Autumn, and the next T20 one is next year, and is being held in the US and West Indies. There is also an attempt to launch "Major League Cricket" in the US this year, which has the Cricket For Americans channel rather excited! In regards to the Test format, I think it works in an ongoing ladder, so there is never a tournament per se, but there is usually some matches going on somewhere that has teams attempting to climb the rankings.
I'd say that before watching any games, it's probably worth finding a video about the different types of bowling as that is the starting point for any strategies the fielding team are using. It affects how the fields are placed, but there is also a question about when is the right time for a particular type of delivery. Sadly, I can't find a video that fits what I'm trying to recommend. Hopefully other commentors may be able to help
Yup - tests are an ongoing ladder-like league, with the top two teams meeting to contest a final every two years.
...I'm not a TA in anything, but I did used to help run conferences, and I think I just got stress pains thinking about _trying_ to organize a tournament for Test cricket as opposed to the ladder system.
The biggest rivalries in cricket are India versus Pakistan and England versus Australia. the World Cups are different for different formats of the games. he ODIs have a 50 over each side game and the tournament is hosted every 4 years(current champions England) the T20 world Cup is 20 overs each side game which are originally scheduled for once in two years but are adjusted if two world cups align the same year(current champions Australia). the test matches include World Test Championships which is again a binary year contest between test playing nations where each series has 120 points and the best two teams after the WTC calender play the finals. Each World Cup have different Trophies and you can look up their significances. Ashes is going on right at this moment(the international series since 1854 the video was talking about) and you can catch up on the lore.
Australia vs New Zealand is pretty full-on as well, and not just in cricket. For two countries who are actually good friends, we really like to thrash the other in any sport.
@@mikeyhau yup agreed. New Zealand just can't win against Australia it seems. they are the kryptonite to your supermen.
The sound that the batter hears of the stumps being hit by the ball is appropriately called the “death rattle”
T20 cricket is probably a good place to start.
It's faster-paced because of the limited overs.
From there to the One Day Internationals, 50 overs each side.
There the elements of strategy become more obvious.
If you're still with us at that point, then test match cricket is where you're headed.
6 points
Yeah I imagine it would be difficult for an Anerican to watch a full test match lasting 5 days.
There are world cups for each of the 3 main formats of cricket: the World Test Championship for Test cricket, the Cricket World Cup for ODI (One-Day International), and the T20 World Cup for T20I (Twenty-20 International), with the most popular of these being the World Cup for the ODI format which happens once every 4 years. The next edition of the world cup will be taking place in India this year from 5 October to 19 November. 10 countries will be participating.
But none of them has the prestige of the Ashes.
@@peterjackson4763The World Cup doesn’t have the prestige of the Ashes?
@@noelmalik5018 From my PoV it certainly doesn't.
@@peterjackson4763Yeah from Ur Pov not the billions of people who watch it and the thousands of players who play it.👍
@@alternateaman Certainly from the PoV of most people who watch and play in England and Australia. Probably from many others who recognise that test cricket is the most skillful type of cricket
That first ever international cricket match in 1844 was between Canada and the USA in Manhattan
No
It was between England and Australia which is now formally known as THE ASHES
@@COD_CODM-MWIII en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_cricket_team_in_the_United_States_in_1844
The first England Australian match was in 1877
One of the best videos I've seen is Cricket explained for baseball fans.
There are 5 matches I think are a pretty good place to start:
Match 1: Day 4 of the Headingley 2019 Test Match, England vs Australia
Match 2: 2019 ODI World Cup Final, England vs New Zealand
And then all 3 matches of the England vs South Africa T20 series played in the winter of 2019/2020
If football is the beautiful game, Cricket is the game where gentleman can show aggression with out physical contact.
Tell that to Phil Hughes
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 still no physical contact between players! Unfortunate accidents happen every where.
@varghesethomas Lol that's the result of a yorker.
Practically attempted fuking murder in my book.
That's purposely bowling at the head of the batsman at upto 140 klms just to intimate the guy a bit.
Should be totally illegal.
There may not be too much direct physical contact, unless you're a blower bowling short stuff to another bowler (do so at your own peril). But sledging can also get pretty brutal
The biggest world is a 50 over world cup that happens every 4 years and you're lucky because there is one starting this year in October. This tournament consists of 10 teams, although this wasn't always the case but this year's world cup is one of the most awaited. You gotta check it out
One of the cool things about the bowling attack in Cricket, the Wicket keeper doesnt tell the bowler what to do (while the catcher will often signal to the pitcher what pitch to throw in baseball.... at least that is what I have heard). So when the bowler smashes a pace delivery down the pitch at 90+mph and it lands in the safe hands of the keeper, the keeper had to react to that pitch as much as the batsman did. Neither of them knowing what delivery was coming out of the bowler until it left his hand.
There is a new league (Major League Cricket) going on in Texas and North Carolina atm. Some of the matches are broadcasted via the CBS Sports.
You should try to go for major league cricket which is currently ongoing you will understand more 😊😊😊
I love Cricket 😍😍 Our favourite sports. From 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
To attempt a comparison between Test Cricket, First-Class Cricket, One Day or 50 over Cricket, and T20 Cricket is very difficult. The strategies, play times, and even some rules differ so much. Best I can get is to compare The entire World Series played in consecutive days, Major League with three games one after the other, Minor League and College Baseball, and Little or even PeeWee Baseball.
The thing I recently learnt about cricket is when the LBW rule came into being - the earliest form of it seems to be from a 1774 change to the rules, and was probably introduced then to counteract the change int he way the game was played after the introduction of pads.
T20 is probably the easiest version of the sport to get into since it's the only one that's actually played over a sensible length of time for a sporting competition - 20 overs per inning. Six balls per over, one inning each. So 120 opportunities to score per side, each taking ~80 minutes so around 3 hours plus an interval. (It's also the version of the sport that would be most US television friendly, since you could probably fit a quick commercial between each over simply because the batters swap wickets and a new bowler comes to replace them but also general changes in strategies between overs.)
...just please don't pick a match that got interrupted by rain, no-one deserves their first exposure to an actual game to require understanding Duckworth-Lewis-Stern to know why the winning team won.
Die hard cricket fans will argue the 5 day test matches are the "best", with Eng v Aus as one of the oldest fiercest rivalrys (The Ashes, currently being played). However there is The Cricket World Cup, this is in the One Day format tho. Also there is a T20 World Cup, but this is less popular.
2007 ind vs pakistah t20 world cup final. One of my fav one, this is the world cup i have ever seen. A thrilling one. This is also first ever t20 world cup
I'm a cricket fan of 26 years who's recently got into baseball, so I think if you follow baseball youll enjoy cricket and you'll find parts of it easier to pick up and appreciate.
Just one inaccuracy - I think they said that once all the batters from a team are out then the other team has their turn at batting.... though there are 11 players, once 10 of them are out the innings is over. A lone batter cannot score runs as he has no partner to run in the opposite direction. Also, you don't HAVE to bat until you have lost 10 wickets. If a captain assesses that his team have scored enough runs then he can call an end to the innings by DECLARING. So, if a team is 456 for the loss of just six wickets (456-6), the captain, in declaring, effectively alters the score to 456 all out.
By the way - the difference between throwing and bowling is whether or not you bend/straighten your arm.
If you splint your elbow and are told to throw a ball towards something, you may notice that you start to resemble a bowling action, as you improve over time.
The most common way of being out is 'caught' by a big margin in most formats and levels of cricket. That is followed by bowled, and lbw.
No sports is complicated, just start to watch some matches. And enjoy it every sports is enjoyable.
The traditional highest level of cricket is Test cricket. A test match is played (in white clothing) over five days (a day is three sessions each of two hours duration) between the top 'test qualified' international teams. In tests each team may bat through their whole order twice.
There are also shorter formats; ODIs in which an innings can last up to 50 overs (300 bowls) and there is also a 20 over per innings version. In the 50 over version there is a World Cup (first played 1975) tournament held every four years which is highly prized. The current holders since 2019 are England.
There is a more recent 20 over World cup staged every two years, that is also currently held by England.
Cricket is the 2nd most popular sport in the world. The major playing countries are England, Australia, India, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Bangladesh, South Africa, and the West Indies (which is a collection of Caribbean countries).
There's something called a powerplay, which takes place in the first 6 overs or 36 balls. All the fielders except for two of them are in the pitching circle. It is quite easy to score boundaries in a powerplay.
there are 3 world cups in cricket
one day international world cup
t20 world cup
test championship
it changes country every year and sometimes can be played in 2
all the teams that play cricket and want to enter the one day international world cup or the t20 world cup has to go through a qualification stage if they qualify they are in the world cup.
When you’re batting and the ball the takes the bails off the stumps you don’t even have to look behind you because you can hear them fall and the stumps clatter together. It’s known as a death rattle
There are three formats of cricket - first-class cricket (which takes several days for a match), limited-overs cricket ( with one-day internationals), which lasts 300 deliveries (i.e., bowls) per side, and takes about 7 hours, and T20, which lasts 120 deliveries per side and takes about 3 hours. If you're new to the sport, T20 is definitely the best way to go - though don't be surprised if you're lured into watching the longer versions! There are regular ODI and T20 world cups every four years and two years respectively. The T20 World Cup will be held next year in the West Indies and USA - and the US team, as co-host, is in the Cup for the first time. There's also - just started - the US's first professional franchised league, currently taking place in Texas. It's a good time for an American to get interested in the game!
Great information on this, thank you James!

World Cup will start this October you can start from there, warm up games have started already
The cricket world cup 2023 is hitting tomorrow, starting with England vs New Zealand. Its ODI format tournament, and the venues, are in INDIA.
@4:35 there's a reason the sound of the wicket falling over is known as the "death rattle"
Cricket has several tournaments you can relate them with football
1. ICC odi World Cup - 50 overs World Cup with top 10 international teams competing for the trophy in a round robin tournament and sometimes group wise like fifa world cup
2. ICC t20 world cup 20 overs match
3. ICC world test championship based on the rankings top two international teams in test cricket play for trophy
4. Asia cup teams form asia play for trophy
5. Ashes - series of test matches played between England and Australia and it's classic rivalry because the best ever international cricket match was played between these two teams
6.ICC Champions trophy international teams play for trophy
7. IPL Indian premier league T20 formation franchise cricket similar to English premier league for football
8. Bilateral series played between two countries
World cup T50 which means 50 overs match is the biggest tournament in cricket and it is happening currently.
So to answer your question their is is a cricket world cup where players represents their own country like olympics. Now the world is played in three different formats 1. Is test(5 days match), 2 one day(as the name suggest 6-8 hrs match). 3.T20(3 hrs match most watch format). Now the cricket is played in different countries as they have their own leagues the most popular one IPL( INDIAN PREMIER LEAGUE). Ipl is as popular as world cup if not more where teams represent on of indian cities and player all over the globe participate.
Current cricket world cup champions are England. The tournament is played every 4 years. It's mostly hosted by the biggest cricket countries.
6:00 the world cup is the most biggest tournament in all of cricket... all of the cricketing nations fight for the cup the world cup.. the world cup is full of emotions, the nations has to give their best to go to the finals and win the match ...as a a cricket fan the saddest thing to witness is your country losing the finals . all of the cricketing countries biggest aim is to win the world cup which is the best thing they could ever think of...
There is a T20 World Cup next year in the US, maybe you can watch that.
ICC cricket world cup is coming in October. You should react on more cricket videos to understand the rules.
Everyone here in the subcontinent is waiting for India Pakistan match. Even though every match is exciting but India Pakistan game is next level.
One thing that these videos never mention which is completely different from baseball is that the ball being used is only ever replaced with another ball under extreme circumstances. Even then the replacement ball is not a new ball but one that has had a similar amount of usage as the ball it is replacing. So nothing like a new ball every other pitch as in Baseball. This is important to understand as the condition of the ball, the amount of shine left on it, where the shine is on the ball, how proud the seam is standing, etc all effect how the ball interacts with the air as it is bowled to the batsman and the ground when it bounces. The only time a new ball replaces an old ball is in Test Cricket (the 5 day version) where a new ball may be taken by the bowling side after 80 overs... note... may be taken... they don't have to take it and may not depending on circumstance.
The craze of cricket is most in Asia ❤
Cricket is most entertaining, interesting and awesome sport in the world
To answer your World Cup question: the shorter formats, ODI and T20, both have world cups. The ODI world cup happens every 4 years (there is one currently on going and it's being played in India with 10 teams that qualified)
There are 2 World Cups T20 (20 overs) and ODI (50 Overs). T20 World cup is every 2 years, ODI World Cup every 4 years. ODI World Cup is happening in October this year. T20 World Cup next year with some matches in USA.
Buddy did you know what happen when the scores are leveled and overs are also completed they who will win?
You should watch today's match Ind vs Pak bro, it's the most hyped rivalry.
First Cricket Match was played between Canada & America.
The tournaments of cricket are mainly hosted by ICC- International Cricket Council. There are 4 events hosted by ICC. Cricket World Cup ( It’s in the ODI format and a world cup happens every 4 years. The world cup is the most popular tournament in cricket and loved by fans. It’s happening this year too, in India.)
Champions Trophy ( It’s basically same as the world cup, it happens in every four years, well though the most recent Champions Trophy happened in 2017 and still not being held. ICC says it’s going to be held in 2025. And the Champions Trophy is also in the ODI format.)
T20 World Cup ( It’s in the T20 format, and really does not have a rule on when it’s going to be held. Sometimes it happens every year, somethings every 2 years etc. By the way, the 2024 T20 world cup is going to be held in the US. So check out one match out there if you get a chance.)
World Test Championship ( It’s in the Test format, it’s really good to watch, it happens in every 2 years. And that's basically it about World Test Championship. There was a World Test Championship held this year, India and Australia were in the finals and Australia won.)
ACC- Asian Cricket Council helds every asian event in the cricket world. They have only one event, which is the Asia Cup. It’s in 2 formats, T20 and ODI. It happening this year too. Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan participate in this tournament. There is one team who enters the tournament from the Qualifier round. This year Nepal is qualifying, but usually it’s Hong Kong.
There's a test series between Australia and England called "The Ashes" held by England cricket board and Australia cricket board.
And there are bunch of Leagues in cricket. Here are some :
Indian Premier League ( IPL )
Pakistan Super League ( PSL )
Bangladesh Premier League ( BPL )
Big Bash League ( BBL )
Vitality Blast
Carribean Premier League ( CPL )
Lanka Premier League ( LPL )
And there are always tournaments going on between 2 teams all around the world.
I hope this was enough information you needed about cricket 👍
We love cricket ❤❤❤
ICC CRICKET WORLD CUP Is biggest event and it happens after 4 years it played in ODI format(50 overs).
Current Champion - England (1st title)
Most Successful - Australia (6 titles)
Next World Cup - starts 5 September in India.
First match: Newzealand V/S England 2 PM (indian standard time)
There is Two type of cricket world cup ODI (50 overs) world cup and T20 (20 overs) World cup. ODI world cup happened every four years in a once like FIFA world and T20 World cup happened every two years in a once and host can be different countries. Like India, Australia, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, UAE, Kuwait, West Indies, USA, Canada, etc.
And Cricket World cup is about to start in India this year between 10 teams on October 5, 2023. And in 2024 somewhere in Jun or July, there is another world cup which is t20 world cup between 20 teams USA is Also playing this world cup because they are the host. You should watch this world which is gonna so exciting ❤️
Now you need to understand about pitch preparation...You get fast pitches, seaming pitches, spinning and dead pitches...As the game progresses, the pitch surface changes and tactics change in both teams...
I miss the days of proper pitches that were unique to each ground. Fast bowling at the old WACA ground in Perth, or the 4th and 5th day at Sydney with 2 spinners bowling. Drop in pitches just aren't the same.
icc world cup going on right now in India. its held every 4 years
The world cup of Cricket is the World Cup which comes in two flavours - 50 overs and 20 overs - but the 50-over men's version has been around since '75 and is the pinnacle.
Like the football world cup, countries bid to host but it's usually rotated around the continents evenly with Asia getting to host more because most of the full members are there and also that's where all the money is.
The absolute best game to watch for your first match has to be the 2019 World Cup Final. You couldn't possibly get a closer, see-sawing match ever. In fact, all World Cups are ruined now by how brilliantly it played out - and that's coming from a neutral's perspective.
There's also a version of the game with boring bits in it called Test Cricket which is also the purest and most loved version of the game. Everyone wears white and it's played for 7.5 hours a day over 5 days which means it's impossible to luck your way to victory and the team that plays the best always wins. It's only played competitively between a handful of countries for that reason, but when you get a good one, it's remembered for generations literally by the place name and year it happened (Calcutta '01, Edgbaston '05, Adelaide '93, Headingly '81 etc).
It’s the only international version where each team bats two innings, although confusingly, a team doesn’t need to bat all of their first (called a 'declaration') or even the second if they scored loads in the first, then can also ask the opposing team to bat their second innings directly after they finish their first (called a ‘follow on’) to finish the game off early. There’s also a thing called a draw where they run out of time (😅 I know) and nobody wins. Ties do happen but with all the big numbers and amount of innings to play it’s only happened twice.
If you REALLY get into the sport, you won’t ever enjoy it - cricket won’t let you. You’ll just be relieved your team didn’t lose after giving you so much hope for the first 4 days 😅
Watch the bowler's arm in that slow motion where you paused. They are not allowed to "throw" like a baseball pitcher. You will see that there is minimal use of the elbow.
ICC World Cup 2023 will be hosted by India. It is scheduled to take place between October and November 2023. This is the one day matches of international teams, like the football world cup.
The trophy cup for the "ashes" is in the shape of a small terracotta urn which was first presented in1882/83 and it is said to contain the ashes of a burnt cricket ball.
a bail, not a ball
@@nac5901 he's talking about the world not asking about any random test series,CRICKET WORLD CUP is the pinnacle of the sport
@@_kanv26_ The Cricket World Cup is the pinnacle of ODI cricket yes. The Ashes, on the other hand, is the oldest cricket event there is, and by far the most prestigious. When England visits Australia, or Australia visits England, the cricketing world almost stops just to watch. It's far from any 'random' test series and has been running continuously (breaking only for WWI and WWII) for over 140 years.
@@benjaminterracini6114 still it's only a important event for just 2 countries while for the world it's the CRICKET WORLD CUP that matters the most cuz it's the first ever multination comp. Of the sport
Pakistan vs india t20 match in world cup 2021 where Pakistan beat India and t20 match from world cup 2022 where India beat Pakistan these two teams are the biggest rivals and these games are one, if not the greatest t20 games. From the shortest version of the game.
One of things that bothers people who don't watch cricket or learn about it for the first time is the match time. Some people get blown away when they hear a Test match is 5 day long and so they almost lose interest. To be honest if you start watching Cricket with a Test match, you would not be doing justice to yourself.
There are two more versions. The One Day Internationals (ODIs) where every team gets to face a maximum of 300 legal deliveries (balls a bowler bowls) in groups of 6, called overs. It doesn't matter even if all the batters of the batting team are out or not. If your quota of 300 deliveries or 50 overs are over, your batting time is up and it's the opposition's turn to bat now with the same aim of scoring more runs than their opponent within 50 overs without losing all their wickets. On an average it takes 8-9 hours for a ODI game to finish (hence called 'one day' as it finishes in a day) if both the teams can bat the 100 overs.
Finally, there's the exciting T20 International format. The name of the format is self explanatory. T stands for Twenty and 20 means 20 😂. Hence called Twenty Twenty or in short T20 meaning both the teams can bat for a maximum of 20 overs or 20 x 6 = 120 deliveries. A team generally scores around 140-180 runs in 20 overs if they don't lose all of their wickets. Then their opponents have to chase that target down in 20 overs without losing all of their wickets. A T20 match is generally 3-4 hours long and is action packed most of the time and so it's becoming popular day by day.
Long-time cricket fans (including myself) are fans of Test Cricket because it's considered an art in cricket and of the highest prestige. But I wouldn't recommend you to start watching one just now or in near future. Start with a T20 match. Get to know rules of the game and the strategies and then move on to the other formats if you want to
And about the most glorious tournament in cricket, I'd say it's the ODI World Cup (it's like the FIFA world cup in the sense that it takes place after every 4 years in a different country than the previous year's). It's played by 10 countries now. But by 2027 there will be more teams. Some people say "The Ashes" is the most enjoyable tournament. But The Ashes is a 5 Test Match series and only played between two teams, namely, Australia and England. (Yes 5x5 = 25 days). So these 5 matches are played over the course of 45 to 50 days. But it's not ideal for you to start with The Ashes (since it's a test match format)
So, start with a T20 International match is all I can say. I'll leave a link here for you if I can!

The ashes in England is the pinnacle for us , Eng v Australia
Although a "six" is arithmetically worth six runs it does not normally have the same significance as a 'home run'. A home run could win the game for team and an grand slam home run with all the bases loaded would almost always win a game but it is only four runs.
In a cricket match a 'top order' batsman who hits a six and then gets out has not done his job.
If you want a suggestion to watch a first game, I would recommend starting watching t20’s as the longer formats can be more boring for someone who hasn’t watched it before
Sorry, and specifically an BBL game (it’s Australian) because in my opinion the Australian t20 league is very good standard( I’m an Australian) but if not the IPL is also very good
They call the sound of the stumps being hit the Death Rattle
Be sure to watch the American Major League Cricket competition which is currently in progress

What does crazy mean?
Cricket is just cricket in another country in India it's an emotion
Have you seen Ashes ever? It's probably bigger than India winning some Paytm and Vimal trophies which they are only good at.
If you want to watch most exciting and entertaining cricket matches then go and watch this year's IPL matches and specially watch its final
In terms of the last question, there is a World Cup for the limited overs cricket in all different countries but for test match in my opinion there is a test series called The Ashes between Australia and England that is the most prestigious series, it is played rotated beteeen Australia and England every two years
And is happening right now!
Lemme Give you a quick Summary if you want to get into Cricket..Start it by going to ground and watch a live match..in America there is a League called major league cricket just inograted this year you cam watch it..then try to watch some live matches start with T20 Dont watch highlights pls as it will make you feel the full game boring..then once you get fit in watching a full T20 Live game on Tv or your Phone you can watch a ODI series (One day international) it last a whole day or aprox 8-12 hrs..but trust me brother once you start watching Test Cricket..you will never leave watching cricket 🏏
America has cricket league named Major league cricket
So a “World Cup” or “World Championship” is a competition that teams from ALL AROUND THE WORLD enter. There are international Word Cups, with nations playing versus nations. For instance England versus Australia. England will be made up of English players who play for non-national, or club, teams from anywhere, and Australia the same but with Australian players. Those Australian players may play club cricket in England, but they will play for Australia because of their nationality, with the best players of their nationality being picked to play for them. Then there are club world cups in which individual teams, not nations, take on other teams from around the world. Those teams would usually be the National Champions of the country they play in. These are rarer as they’re simply harder to set up, so usually World Cup means nation versus nation, and Club World Cup is for the other version, the latter version mentioned above.
In World Cups all nations will play each other, usually in group stages, like a mini league, and the countries who finish in the top positions of these mini leagues go through to the knockout stages, playing the winners of other groups/mini leagues, until they get to the quarter finals, then semi finals, and then the final. The final is then played and the winning team/nation is crowned WORLD CHAMPIONS.
Nobody is crowned a World Champion without playing in a competition that has involved the whole world.
A club team can’t win their National title and call themselves World Champions. They’d be National Champions or English Champions if it was an English team winning the English league comprised only of English teams. Even if that English team were the best in the world, they would still only be English Champions until they took part in a World Cup/Championship. The best in the world does not mean World Champions.
A good example would be the NFL, or NATIONAL Football League. The winner of the NFL, by way of winning the Super Bowl, become US Champions, or National Champions, probably just referred to as “The Champions” within the US. Super Bowl winners are likely the best team in the world, but they will NEVER be World Champions because they’ve only won the US league title.
This is all the same with pretty much every sport played around the world.
Greatest match in odi is England vs New zealand cricket world cup 2019 final
