It took me a while to realize you were talking about Education and the priorities some people have on entertainment over their educational duties. I thought at first you were talking about some study/scientific work which had found some negative correlation between watching critcket matches and health. I don't know. Tongue

Anyways, Cricket and watching it is just another form of spending ones time and get some amusement, not to get bored. The same thing can be said about watching any other matches and sports, like football, baseball, soccer, golf; one could go even further and talk about matching electronic sports for fun (depending whom you ask, those are actual sports or not). It is all about priorities and setting things right, nothing in excess is health, entertainment included. It is not the same watching recorded critcket matches all day than just dedicating a few hours a week, so one can take care of studying and doing shores around the house.

Honestly, I would be very weird to me if someone anyone adviced against following a sport, in general it is one of the most harmless things one could do with ones spare time and encourages the youth to do physical excessive, assuming they get enthusiastic enough to partake in the sport as well.

I am not in doubt of your opinion OP but personally, I don't feel any hurt able exercise about it.
Watching the game for entertainment and the same time studying about the game based on their performances, capacities and their formations enhances your analogical mindsets to be on good stance of making possibility right predictions that could tender you winning bets.
The fact that you watches the games and also tends to analysis with good studies is such as you having experiences on how the game is played. That alone is a remarkable advantage for you even though it still lies on lucks.

But it doesn't sound bad that someone who has free times could spend the whole of it enjoying to watch the cricket games and the more your interests in the game is expanding, it is likely to be that you are studying the game at your notable tactics so on that, you could place your bet accordingly based on your knowledges after watching and the same time studied the game.
Hence, it is better of watching and studying probably to enhance your Predictions as a fact of being experienced of how the game is played.

Absolutely not, because it provides you with entertainment but at the same time, it also has a bad effect from somewhere because if you watch and bet on cricket all day so you can't find time to study and if you see a test match so it will be more harder to study.

But you should watch cricket because it is like entertainment and entertainment is more important than studying. The study is also important but if you say that Watching and betting on cricket matches has bad effects on study so it's like stupidity because in a day, we have 24 hours and from these 24 hours we can see 4 hours to a T20 match and an ODI match takes 9 hours to finish while a test match also takes 9 hours and also in a year we have 365 days and in these 365 days we had a lot of time to study and you can do all the time study but crucial and interesting cricket matches comes sometimes.

Well, sorry to say but you must be crazy to say that entertain is better than studying Angry

.
Have you ever tried to dedicate some time to study those entertainers? How many uneducated persons do you find or have you seen doing the job of entertaining others?
If you were a teacher, would you advice your students to rather watch a match and engage in betting rathe than read their books during an exam period?

Lets try as much as possible not to advice amiss when ever we advice, I believe some of us here have wife and children, how can I advice my child to spend his or her study time watching cricket? While those playing the cricket didnt do same while they were growing up, and besides, why cricket in particular?

There is time for everything, time to study and time for entertainment, sensible people should know when to play and when to study, for the entertainers themselves are educated people, they are not illiterates, how can we ourselves become entertainers in the future if we do not study now, but spend our study time watching cricket?

I agree with OP. It is not.
If it is then all sports have bad effects on us because it ain't like we are just betting there, we are also analyzing the games where we use a lot of effort to research the possible results of the game.
I don't know who said this and why but I think they didn't consider that any sport could have the same effect as others. Why cricket only? Or, this is only just an attack on the said sport so that people will stop betting on it?
I do hope you provided the link to the article where you read this. We could somehow dissect it and see if the person who made it is stating facts or if is it just another clickbait article which is normal now just so they will be paid by the advertisements posted in their articles.
It's possible because most jobs now are online and they badly need those clicks so they can keep the money coming. I wouldn't believe such a simple thing if I were you.
It only affects a gambler if he is doing too much gambling. If not, especially those who bet on sports because we do it rarely, per event only, then you are still good to go.

Not only that betting and watching ruins study or academic performance, it can also ruin our overall life.
The ones who does this are already addicts. Almost every things in this world are not bad, as long as we are doing or consuming them in moderation.

We need entertainment to release our stress but it's less important than studying because studying is what can shape our future. I know there are experts and successful people who are college dropouts but maybe they are only lucky and skilful enough? I don't think many people can have those qualities, so it's better to be on the safer side than sorry and regret later on like many people did.

The T20 is making things very difficult... yes it's only a limited amount of overs and it is faster than 1day cricket matches, but you only have a few hours in a day.

You sleep for +/- 8 hours ... so that leaves you with 16 hours and then you still have to go to class or work for 8 hours, leaving you with 8 hours and then the cricket takes 4 hours... leaving you with 4 hours to study and all the other things you have to do. (House tasks)

The T20 are also every day for a whole month, so you do not have breaks between the matches.

We all agree that this is not a good combination, but it has nothing to do with something as specific as cricket, or even gambling.

Man, if you must study, you should park not only your cell phone, but also avoid having your console, tv, and any other entertainment near. Constantly getting distracted by anything while you try to study is like sitting down every 5 meters during a marathon.

In fact, recent studies show that you need up to 25 minutes to recover the level of attention you got before receiving a notification in your smartphone. And you know what? we get a notification every 25 minutes on average Roll Eyes

Although watching matches provides entertainment, it can have potential effects on study habits. Excessive watching may lead to procrastination and difficulty in focusing on academic responsibilities. Tho entertainment is important, prioritizing study and managing time, and having a balance between enjoying and fulfilling commitments are way more important.

The issue with cricket as a sport is that matches drag out for too long.

It's hard to explain to a fan of any other sport that cricket matches last SIX HOURS and especially to those really liking their team or national team, it can be hard to watch the whole thing even for them.
There's a reason matches drag out to several days. It's a very peculiar sport. And those that try sports betting also come to the realization that if they ever bet on a cricket match, it can take much longer than any other sport for their bet to settle.

So if you're a cricket fan, it's hard to watch cricket because if you want to watch the whole thing it takes away from other activities. It's better sometimes to just place the bets and wait just for the hell of it if you really believe in your team. Otherwise maybe you can just not bet and watch for enjoyment only when you have time.

I was wondering, why Asian countries see cricket more than other countries, and why?

It's a natural fact that Asian Countries had more interest in cricket than other countries even England made cricket and they had less interest in cricket even Pakistan and Indian players.

Actually, it started in history so once a time when only the British played this game and at that time, Pakistan and India were together, and on India had some problems and when they came to British so British are confidently said I will forgive you if you won a match with us and on that time, no one know about cricket but they accepted and when match date comes so they won the match with ultimate struggle and on that match, many people had an injury but they won, and on this, a film was also built.

The history of cricket into Asia isn't that much of a happy story. It was brought by English colonial forces, primarily through the East India Company that used to ravage India for its natural resources.
You'll notice a pattern on where England had a colonial presence, that they will most likely have a national cricket team.

It's interesting that the sport remained popular even after the British have formally departed from most places they had colonized. Most people these days don't consider it a relic of the past and have gone on to accept it as a national sport in these countries. It's good that these days cricket in Asia isn't connected to any external ruling authority. These days thankfully cricket is not so much of an elite sport played only by princes and such. But still maybe it staying in the spotlight maybe still serves some interests for the powers that be. For instance here in Europe it's kind of a status symbol for a rich person to also own a football team. This kind of also helps them be known for something good aside of shady businesses that might have made them rich.

Put things at its place. If you are studying and having a certain goal perhaps passing the examinations or getting high grdes then it is not only cricket watching you should limit but also other activities, to maintain your focus. Betting on the other hand simply intensifies the activity which makes sense to say, and obviously, why it should not be done if you want to succeed with other things you are doing. Indeed it is entertaining, but as others have mentioned, you should know how to prioritize and give importance to what matters more for you. This is not to stop you completely but to manage your time than to do things consecutively.

Everything that is too much is bad; playing computer games, spending time on things which are basically not essential. If it is just entertainment then you could watch the games on replay and during your free time right? And if it is gaambling you are concerned with, and if it is more than important than your studies, then just continue doing it. We all haave freewill. See it for yourself if it would either be bad or not to do so. Regret comes last by the way. Some things are needed to be learned the hard way right?

In this case, first of all, I wanna say that if the person is irresponsible on his study then not only just watching and betting on cricket will effects on his study in every entertainment source can make bad impact on this study. Like if he like games or watching tv shows, movies etc these will also make an bad impact on his study. For this I will not only blame watching cricket and betting on it, it will be entirely due to that person's careless routine. Just like he has a daily routine for entertainment, he must have a fixed time routine for studies.
Moreover, I think it is not necessary to watch the full match for betting on cricket or any sports, if a person has a good knowledge about that sport and the two teams of the match, then I think there is no need to watch the full match for betting.

If you’re just watching the game, i think its fine but if you’re going to bet while you’re still a student, maybe it can affect your budget so make sure to have an extra money and you’re on the right age before you place a bet. You also have to know your priorities and know how to manage your time so your studies will not suffer that much.

Watching match is truly extraordinary pleasure and watching match will provide more experience and knowledge, but this is an understanding that is quite rare for everyone to know.
The average gambler will watch the match but also bet on it, they really wait for the result of the match with quite lot of anxiety and adrenaline.
But for gambler who really wants to learn while being able to watch matches and betting is not problem as long as what is being bet is actually money that he can afford, he must use at least small amount of money.
This can minimize large losses and can also provide better learning because there is money at stake and then there will be caution because in this match there is certain amount of money that is also desired to be able to win.

But if really focus on learning without any connection to betting then there is no need to bet because when only focus on learning then we will be able to gain knowledge that is truly more dominant.

Watching and betting is for entertainment and it's fine (if they are not adults anymore) for people who are studying because they also need to have a break from studies. However, this entertainment can also be a cause of addiction. It's similar to online games where most students play online games to enjoy and take a break from studying but sometimes they become addicted to it, and that's when it affects their overall studies. Too much entertainment can be bad for students since there's a possibility that they forget about their priorities and their attention becomes too focused on the entertainment side.

It's the reason why parents' guidance is a must for students. Tho if you're already above 18, legally it's okay to bet or gamble, I don't suggest getting into it at an early stage. Because if you started getting exposed in gambling, you will keep gambling as you grew older and it can lead to addiction.

However, we can't do it all the time every day because we have other things we have to do. This not only applies to learning cricket but also to other things. We can focus on studying, but we must not forget the other things we must do.
We have to make a schedule of when we have to learn cricket and how many hours we can study it to do other things that are also our obligations.
But there are people who would take a week to learn cricket or something and feel that taking a week is enough for them to understand it. But it's still not good for our health because we definitely won't think about other things so what we have planned won't be able to be done.

The gambler who loss the money can able to get entertain in the gambling site.Many gamblers are not satisfied with the money entertainment earned in the gambling site.They only look for the money from the gambling site,but the gambler who learned the game can earn huge money from the gambling site.Whether the game was good or bad doesn’t affect such experienced gambler.The watching cricket itself satisfied some people because of the entertainment,but the gambling also involved in the cricket game.The every ball or over in the cricket game was monitored and betting was placed in every ball or over in the gambling game.

This is not just on cricket games; everyone has the kind of game they like to play, watch, and wager on. You see, cricket is so addicting that it can distract you from whatever you are supposed to do with your free time. That's how most people see tennis games and other forms of sport games that are watched and played online.

The issue is not with the kind of game; the issue lies with the individual who is involved in it. If you don't have self-control to put yourself in other situations and set limits on when you can stop and focus on other things, you will also get distracted and focus on your studies, and you will blame the game for it.

Distraction from studies is not just the effect of Cricket betting but betting on all other games can have a bad effect on your studies, it can take up important time that you use in study and make you start challenging that time into analyzing games to see which game to play. This challenge is the same with anything that is entertaining because so much of entertainment may put you in a state of comfort that you forget what is important and needs to be done.
