Wow, the way he explained baseball as the inverse of cricket (batters vs bowlers rotating and runs vs outs being the unlikely outcome) is absolutely brilliant.
Right? As an Englishman who moved to America I've always talked about the batters being the "attack" in baseball and the bowlers in cricket. I need to steal Jimmy's explanation and add that in.
It was always obvious but this gent really nailed in in 2 sentences.
Americans are super smart in explaining things in simple manner and make you go “ahhh”…
Jomboy is trying to convert some baseball fans to cricket but he's got a life long fan of cricket like me interested in baseball now.
Do it mate, it's great! Grew up watching and playing cricket, started watching baseball about 25 years ago.
Both sports have basically the same aims, getting runs and outs, but they do it in completely opposite ways.
I prefer the long version of cricket, so baseball plays the part that T20 does for others I guess.
Really good explanation by Jomboy. It's worth remembering that transitioning from cricket to baseball means watching the pitcher not the batsman. The equivalence of a six in cricket is really a strikeout in baseball, not a home run.
@@jimb9063 Thanks! I really like your explanation.
@@jayfloramusic Ed Smith (the most recent England cricket selector) wrote a good book almost 20 years ago called "Playing Hard Ball", which is the first place I saw the role reversal between pitching/bowling and batting noted (he writes that watching baseball was the first time he felt sympathy for the "deliverer" of the ball).
I came from baseball to cricket (and after reading Smith's book), and I do sometimes feel that T20 is too artificial; part of the appeal of baseball is that it's preserved the "timeless test" quality of the game never having to end (part of me even feels that the 5-day Test limit is a bit artificial, though the tactical decision of whether to declare is a nice angle), but the only way to preserve that and have a game almost certainly finish in a few hours is to stack the deck in favor of the batter being dismissed before 10 balls (forbidding runs from scoring if the ball is hit outside of the quadrant in front of the batter (meaning no fielders in the other 270 degrees), requiring the batting side to run if the ball is hit in that quadrant, letting every fielder wear a glove to have bigger hands being the main ways the deck is stacked: three strikes and the different treatment of a hit batsman do not make up for this).
Oh he did that with his first vid about "Cricket explained in baseball terms" or something. It was a couple of years ago
Surreal seeing Jimmy doing breakdowns on YES, let alone cricket breakdowns. Keep em coming!
Finally! We can watch Cricket in the US!
As a Kiwi who stumbled across Jomboy a few years ago then began to really follow baseball because of Jimmy,Jake and Trevor and now have embraced baseball and the Yanks as my team I can't thank this man enough. And to hear him explain cricket this way my hats of to him 👏 good job.
I cannot believe I finally understand cricket
Me too. It felt like the most vague sport ever to me until now. 😂
Great interview honestly, I think I can fully grasp cricket and am semi interested given the relation made to baseball. Great questions asked too
just started to get into baseball as a cricket guy, this breakdown is great! the lineup similarities are fun to see!
Same here
Dodgers fan here😂
I'm English, so the ebb and flow of cricket has been second nature to me since I was very young, in much the same way that I imagine baseball and NFL are to Americans. This was by far the best explanation I have ever seen for people who wouldn't be familiar with the game, bravo!
I've always thought fans of either sport would appreciate the other if they watched it.
Growing up watching cricket has definitely helped me appreciate watching some NPB and high school games in Japan.
As a huge fan of both sports. Jimmy does a great job at breaking it.
I also want to say this no cricketers can't be good at baseball like wise baseball players can't be good at cricket as the mechanics and adaptation is different.
Same here and agreed.
Yes the mechanics are different, but that's about elite performance levels. Both are games of running, throwing, catching, and hitting. Can't imagine many other sports professionals being better at baseball than cricketers, and vice versa.
Yes but I think they will be relatively quicker in picking the other sport up
@@arbabasukalsar4361 it isn't that hard for a baseball player to pickup cricket and play at a high skill level but a cricket player isn't going to do the same thing the ball speed is so different
@@CubeInspector the cricket is way harder than baseball because ball bounce and come towards you and bounch can be different in difference city and country some pitch favour fast bowler some to spinner and bowl comes toward you at 85-90mph and i think that cricket player can play baseball easy because that call full toss in cricket which goes out of the park
@@Bharat75861 If he's using a cricket bat, sure; except it won't go out of the park because you probably can't hit as hard with a cricket bat. With a baseball bat he'll have the same trouble baseball players have -- they consider it a marvellous feat if you can hit 1/3 of the balls thrown at you. But there's no reason the cricketer should have any greater trouble with that than a baseball player; there's no reason he should be better at it, but no reason he should be any worse, either (but won't hit as hard...contra Cubeinspector, baseballer playing cricket is going to have to deal with a lot of stuff he hasn't spent years training his muscles and reactions to cope with, though, so there *is* good reason to believe he'd have more trouble than the cricketer)
Cricket: Runs are common, outs are rare.
Baseball: outs are common, runs are rare.
That’s always my first point when explaining the game to a baseball fan. Helps explain the dynamics and flow of the game in the simplest way possible.
Stanton as the keeper. Lol
Catchers and Keepers definitely share the same DNA.
But Stanton is too bulky for a keeper@@jimb9063
Volpe as the keeper and opener
Always love seeing YES/Jomboy collaborations! Great comparison.
Great questions and answers. Almost everything covered.
Americans about cricket: " we beat Pakistan"
Core difference distilled in a beautiful manner 👏
Great interview Jimmy. Very natural
Jimmy may have convinced me to start getting into MLC
Jimmy!
Impressive explanation Jomboy. Well done!
*CRICKET IS THE BEST SPORT*
this is so good, Jimmy nailed it!
Just a brilliant description of cricket. To anyone to be honest.
As a cricket fan and becoming more in tune with baseball, that initial explanation of inversing your thoughts is absolutely brilliant, I went and watched some baseball and immediately was engaged more!
GOOD JOB JIMMY !!!
One of the main details I don't see getting explained is the overs/wickets (outs) scenario. The T20 format means a team bowls (pitches) a MAXIMUM of 20 overs (an over is a series of 6 "pitches"), OR until they've gotten all 10 of the opposing team's batters out. Whichever comes first. Then they switch sides, and the team that was just batting now tries to get batsmen out before the team batting second can match the first team's score.
That's why test cricket can last so long. Team X has unlimited overs to get all 10 of Team Y's batsmen out. Then Team Y bowls to Team X until they've gotten all 10 of Team X's batsmen out. THEN THEY DO IT AGAIN.
❤❤🎉🎉......very classy and brilliant ,,,,,,,,,,surely Team India's great Triumph in 🌎 World Cup T20 has created new waves of interest in Cricket for thousands of kids in America ,,,,,,,,,,to touch glory like Divine Indians 🏏🏏 best wishes & love to USA Kids 🌹🌹
Pitches is most important in game as we see in world cup
Heck, Rizzo's had a couple pitching appearances... there's your "all-rounder"!
"don't be confused on purpose"
Didn’t watch it all but did he cover LBW? 😂
the ending wtf
Bro said trent boult is underrated 😂
I agree he is very good and underrated.
He compared him to Andy Petitte, and in that sense he's correct. Andy Pettitte was left handed and not usually considered amongst the best 2-3 pitchers in the league, but always performed at an elite level and had a Hall Of Fame career. He was so consistent that people took him for granted. Trent Boult is sometimes overshadowed by players in his own team, but is legitimately as valuable as any other.
@@BigInnings for me he is one of the best bowlers in the world 🌍
@@dipak_8374 I absolutely agree! Andy Petite was one of the very best pitchers too, but you would hear more hype about others.
Who wicket keeper? And no way Stanton would survive in the field for 20overs. Swap Stanton for Wells
Good luck to YES but I can’t see cricket really taking off with yanks.
A yankee breaking down cricket for baseball fans, gotta love it.
New cricket fans, stick to T20s 😂
Cricket is more interesting than compare to baseball in any point
Okay, no, we know that’s not true
@@insertcolorherehawk3761it's true
@@Abhinav-m4o it really isn’t, it’s *purely equal*
Americans are getting into cricket, don't bother...I'm English and think it's rubbish
🤢

Virat kohli's cover drive>>>>>baseball
