History
The origins of the game of cricket are lost in the mists of time. There is a
reference in the household accounts of Edward I in 1300 of a game like cricket
being played in
It seems clear that the English game originated in the sheep-rearing country
of the South East, where the short grass of the downland pastures made it
possible to bowl a ball of wool or rags at a target. That target was usually
the wicket-gate of the sheep pasture, which was defended with a bat in the form
of a shepherd's crooked staff.
