Answer 2

Its rather difficult to see how you could learn to bat on your own being as someone would have to bowl the ball at you, but given a few basic pointers (like keeping a straight arm etc.) Similar fielding would be a bit tricky. But I guess it is not impossible to learn to bowl on your own. Difficult, but not impossible.

Rather depends on what facilities you have available as well - the pitch is 22 yards long so you need a good 30 yards of clearn ground.

If you are reasonably serious then you would be better advised to join a club, if you have one nearby. They will always have net sessions that you may be able to join in.

Answer 3

u see cricket on tv ? dont? then see cricket and listen comments . good luck

Answer 4

Cricket is a lovely game.

But like all games you need coaching in it to play it professionally or if you want to be a good player.

But if you want to just play it for fun or exercise, you probably dont need to take professional coaching. Just start playing and enjoying, you will improve day by day with practice.

You have not mentioned which area you like most batting, bowling or you want to become allrounder?

Every area is special in its own.

You can also improve by watching Cricket Matches or videos of cricket matches and by observing how good players play.

Answer 5

If you father can't do it for you (mine did) either join the school team or join a club.  Once you have the basics, most the real knowledge about cricket is passed on by talking to senior players or ex-players.

Answer 6

better to join a club i reckon, seeing how complex it is.

Answer 7

No body can learn cricket... It is god gifted.

If you really want to play cricket.... Start loving this game from your heart and start practice yourself....

Answer 8

join a club, watch lots of cricket and read some cricket magazines such as the wisden cricketer to get some knowledge.

Answer 9

If there is someone to teach you, then you should definitely take his help. By coaching it might be easy to learn some good skills.

But anyways its a simple game, you can learn it by yourself also.
