Dear Student,

1) Kerry Packer, an Australian television tycoon innovated at the realisation of cricket as a money- making sport. He signed up fifty-one of the world’s leading cricketers against the wishes of the national cricket boards and for about two years staged unofficial Tests and One-Day internationals under the name of World Series Cricket described as ‘circus’. The television coverage changed the nature of cricket .

2)Cricket boosts social integration, cultural understanding and fair play.

3)In 1774, the first leg-before law was published.
