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

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?
