You hear different stories of where it was invented. if you ask the BBC they show it was invented in Flanders in northern Bleguim with some very good evidence to back their claim.

We turned it into the competetive sport we have now instead of a past time, i assume that's why. but what don't us English claim to have invented

I would imagine that peoples in most countries have hit a ball with a stick at some time in their history but that does`nt mean they invented cricket. Some people say the Chinese invented football but im sure some caveman must have kicked an armadillo out his cave at some point in time...

it's like football. fifa say it was invented in mexico or china or somewhere like that, but really it was invented in the sence of the formalisation of the rules in england.

you can say the same about cricket, they may have hit a leather ball with a stick of wood in many places, but it was in england that the rules were formalised.

Britain codified all the major sports...

Do you think that if a Chinese lad kicked a ball of straw 1000 years ago he invented football ? were there goal posts ? rules ? Sky TV ? NO NO NO NO!...

We invented football so stop getting all bolshie and jealous...
