Daniel James almost became cricket player before becoming football player

August 2, 2020

Daniel James is the first rookie of Man Utd this Summer. However, before taking part in the football world, James used to be a cricket player.
Recently, Man Utd completed their recruitment with the midfielder Daniel James from Swansea City which worths up to £ 18 million.

However, few people know, as a teenager, the midfielder once pursued the career of a cricket player. He played it during the age from 12 to 16. Only when James moved to Swansea did his cricket career come to a halt.
Matt Simpson, James’ teacher when he was 13, described him as a hard-working bee. His speed and skills has always been superior to his peers.
Kevan’s father just passed away last month at the age of 60 therefore his transfer to Old Trafford has been delayed. This has been bad news for the family of James, because his sister Hannah just got married this summer
Coming to Swansea was a major turning point in James’s career.
Last season, James scored 5 goals and contributed 10 assists for Swansea City in 38 matches.
At the age of 21, James has gained the opportunity to play for the first football team of Wales in the last EURO qualifier. Wearing Wales football uniform to a Yorkshire player like James is such a great pride. Playing for Man Utd, James receives an impressive salary of up to £ 67,000 / week. Currently, it is unlikely that James will continue his career at Old Trafford. As Solsa asserts: “This is the perfect environment for Daniel James to continue developing himself” and he needs to prove himself in the future.

Cricket betting- Things you need to acknowledge

February 12, 2020

Cricket is a sport that uses sticks to press on the ball to score. And this sport is extremely popular in Europe. That’s why we have Cricket betting.

In 16th century, it was created in England. Then in the 18th century, it was considered as a national sport.

After that, this sport became famous to other parts of the globe.

However, countries in Africa are banned from participating in the sport even though it is very popular in Africa because of its racial discrimination law.

International Cricket Council (ICC) is established in 1971.

The rules of Cricket are quite simple, it’s quite similar to baseball. We will list the rules and the simplest score calculation as follows:

Each team has 11 players, similar to football
Each team sends out 2 members for polishing. They will stand opposite each other. One person will hit the ball, standing in front of the opponent catch the ball. If the other teammates can not hit the ball, they will lost the opportunity into opponent’s hand
They have the duty to protect 3 wooden poles behind them (called the three pillars). If those pieces of wood fall to the ground then the batter will be disqualified.

Your team will send a pitcher to destroy the wooden piles behind the batter. Outside around the yard are the people responsible for catching the ball.
The rules are as simple as that. One team tries to protect 3 wooden stakes, the other tries to destroy it with a ball. The method of calculating the score is as follows:

The batter will hit the ball flying as far as possible. And the opposing players must capture the ball and return to the batting area.
When the ball flies away, the two players hitting the ball will switch positions. They have to run and run again to calculate points (called run). A successful swap is a run.
