Cricket and Evaluation in cricket with time 

Cricket, a game with a storied past, has evolved significantly since its humble beginnings in medieval England. From its early days as a rural game to its current status as a global phenomenon, cricket has undergone remarkable changes. The introduction of standardized rules in 1744 proved to be a turning point, followed by the establishment of the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) in 1787, which codified the rules of the game. The popularity of the game increased with the advent of Test cricket in 1877, and the 20th century saw the introduction of One Day International (ODI) and, later, Twenty20 (T20) cricket, which revolutionized the format and pace of the game. Advances in technology such as bowling speed cameras and Decision Review Systems (DRS) have enhanced player performance and fan engagement. Today, cricket is a dynamic, ever-changing game, drawn by its rich history, innovative spirit and global reach, attracting millions of fans around the world.
