Rugby and cricket aren't African games... Isn't even African origin...
And besides, Rugby is a winter sport... These are not African games....

Very few exposed African individuals has the idea of the game...

Wetin dis one de yarn, which game is African in origin and how is Rugby a winter game?
You just de talk nonsense

Only time I understood Cricket was in an Indian Movie 'LAGAAN' by the Actor Aamir Khan who
also acted 3 Idiots.🤨😒

The Game looked Interesting. 🤨😊🙂

First there is the scoring convention, then there is no scrum or ruck in American football, and there is no lineout in American football. And then the obvious one, AF players wear helmets and padding because they are allowed to hit their opponents more forceful than rugby

You are allowed to hit your opponent as hard as you want in Rugby

tunwumi:



South Africa has won the rugby 🏉 world cup.

South Africa has won the T20 cricket 🏏 before

South Africa has never won a cricket world cup....which is sad because statistically SA are the greatest one day team in history, hence why they are called chokers

For where? Those games are not for Nigerians 😆

I understand Rugby More than cricket.

Rugby is easy to understand if you keep watching it.

I used to play Cricket when I was in College in Nigeria so I perfectly know cricket. Rugby different story. What about American Football and Baseball any takers on those?

Wrong!!! Southern part of Africa such as south Africa play cricket and rugby very well and are in fact well recognised in it.

Cricket used to be played in a lot of High Schools where I went to High Schools. Comprehensive High School Aiyetoro, and Government College Ibadan Loyola College Ibadan

Why should we care about American boring sport.

FYI none of those two sports are played in the USA. So partner do your research

I only understand football

izonborn098:
Yes do you understand how the game cricket and rugby works? Because it seems majority of nigerians don't understand those games..

I get the rugby, but the cricket... I don't understand

Rugby...I stated watching rugby a month ago becuase of my gf. Tbh,it really an interesting game. Watching the latest world cup which ended on Saturday with south africa clinching the trophy made me like the sport..The aggression,the force,push,throws kick,try are very intense.

TMKsouth:


😂

Yeah cricket is time consuming.

I hate that sport, lol. One day internationals last the whole Flippin day

Is it a life skill to learn?

So true ,

Cricket the shorter format , T20 cricket is a very huge deal . The game finishes in 3 hours and like football , majority is a edge of seat story .

First u need to understand the basics .

Cricket has three formats .

T20 cricket which last 3 hours .
One day cricket which last 8 hours .

8 hours is a whole day to me, that's a large chunk of the day

Thats why majority of cricketing loving population across the world have shifted to T20 cricket .

Check out Indian Premier league (IPL) its the second richest league after American football and ahead of EPL .

Disney and Others paid 6.2 billion dollars for just 5 years of IPL television rights and games are played for only 2 months of entire year .

T20 cricket has been accepted as Olympic sport by IOC and scheduled to play from 2028 Los Angeles Olympics .

I enjoy and enjoy rugby but cricket


Isnt cricket baseball??

Sometimes I feel like I wanna be on the pitch ...

Amma send lotta opp team to the ICU

😁😁😁

I don't know what prompted this headline but I don't have a choice than to quickly contribute at almost 50 I have no Idea of those games. Sincerely I don't understand anything in the game don't even know where and how to start with. I think our government is the problem we weren't introduced to the game from elementary school

Samantha124:
So far my country has won the rugby world cup twice, but I know nothing about it the same way I know nothing about cricket and football...

But I think if I can give myself some time to understand cricket and golf, I'd eventually love them because those two sports are not noisy... They're quiet and give the person an opportunity to focus.

It's 4 times but u only remember 2019 n 2023

At the age of five or maybe six, i presume
