There we go. Thank you.
I usually learn rules and terminology to sports I’ve played little or not at all, by playing sports video games. I’ve yet to find ones for rugby or cricket that I liked, so continue to barely understand them.
- wizofaus 3y agoFWIW in Australia we have reasonable exposure to baseball (and/or softball and even "rounders", both of which we got to play at school a few times), so much of the terminology and the basic rules are well enough known. I wouldn't say the same for gridiron though, which I've never seen played here at all. Do you even see people playing cricket anywhere in the US? Surely in areas with large subcontinental populations (SV?) there'd be some uptake?
- hotnfresh 3y ago> Do you even see people playing cricket anywhere in the US It’s not impossible to find, and exactly where you’d expect: the closer you are to a major population center, and the larger & more internationally-prestigious the nearest university, the more like you are to see it in the wild. But over most of the US, yeah, you could easily go your whole life and never even see a cricket bat in person, let alone a match being played. Rugby seems to be a significantly more popular than cricket, though still uncommon, considered over the whole geography of the country.
