Why cricket is more popular than other games?

Answer 1

In the case of India With meagre funds and nil support from the government, it is not possible for other sports to compete at the international level This is why the condition of the Indian athletes gets more and more miserable with each passing competition.

India has produced marvellous sportpersons who have made us proud not only at the domestic but at the international level as well. But this discrimination is putting paid to such talent.

ther team sports like Football and Hockey also have the opportunity for Individual players to perform and win the match on their own these chances are often rare and don't happen regularly

other sports (life Hockey & Football), which are of short duration and provides the opportunity of Commercial break only during the half time, a single One-Day match of cricket gives the opportunity of showing commercial advertisement more than 100 times .and this is reason why cricket is immensely popular with big companies and satellite channels this should be changed.

as commercial companies have so much interest in investing in Cricket matches, they don't promot other games.
