He traces the game from its sleepy English roots to the current world of celebrity owners and million-dollar player contracts.

    I agree with Harsha’s opinion of English people inventing the things and let the world be better at it. They invented the language and let Harsha be far better at it.

      @@aniksamiurrahman6365 that's really sad. Seriously what's the difference between champions trophy and world cup now. 14-16 nations playing was the real essence. Anyways it wasn't technically unfair, a tournament was organised, other teams were given a chance but Afghanistan was the one which made it into world cup. Anyways, video is more about how India used certain opportunities, and benefits it's reaping because of cricket obsession. I really wish cricket was actually encouraged more in nations like Zimbabwe, Ireland etc which have potential just like Bangladesh.

There is no other speaker like Harsha to match his content, speed of speech, articulation and above all the power to mesmerize the audience. I can listen to Harsha and read his blogs on Cricinfo several times.
    Harsha... we all love you for what you do.

    • @kanishka100
      @kanishka100 6 років тому

      hogn hooper you are right. But Sachin isn’t the only reason for cricket to be so famous in India. It was the globalisation of India in 1992. Before that BCCI use to pay tv channels to show cricket matches & look now ; Sony bought Indian cricket rights of 5 years at around a billion dollars. And at the same time mere $300M for England cricket rights “.
      IPL rights sold at $2.1B . Sachin may have played his part in making cricket a worshipped sport but he wasn’t the only important aspect.

    2011: "Dhoni finishes it off in style. A magnificent strike into the crowd. India lift the world cup after 28 years!"
