O kriketu

Globalno gledano, kriket je drugi najveći sport na svijetu! Svjetska prvenstva u kriketu, koja se održavaju svake 4 godine, kao i svjetska nogometna prvenstva privlače milijarde gledatelja putem malih ekrana, posebice u zemljama poput Indije, Pakistana, Velike Britanije, Australije, JAR-a, Novog Zelanda i SAD-a.

Kriket je sport koji se može igrati u raznim formama – utakmice mogu trajati 5 dana (tzv. Test Match), 7 sati (One-day cricket) ili 3 sata (Twenty-20) – a isključivo se igra ljeti i to po suhim vremenskim uvjetima.

Stoga, sastavni dio kriketa su ljetne vrućine i nakon dugog vrućeg dana, da li na terenu kao igrač ili u stadionu kao gledatelj. No, svi se slažu u jednom – da nema boljeg načina ugasiti žeđ nego uz ledeno pivo ili hladan sok za mlađe.
