CRICKET HISTORY

Cricket History
The history of cricket dates back to the 13th century. Though not confirmed, the game possibly originated among the farming community in a place called Weald between Kent and Sussex. According to written evidence, a game called as creag was played by Prince Edward, the son of Edward I in Kent in 1300.
There is also a reference about a court case way back in the 16th century which says that a game called kreckett was played at Royal Grammar School in Guildford.
