In this special re-run of Sportly’s very first episode, host Kavitha Davidson unpacks cricket’s remarkable journey: from its origins in the English countryside to its rise as South Asia’s most beloved sport.
The episode traces how cricket spread through colonization, ignited one of the fiercest rivalries in sports — India vs Pakistan, and grew into a global phenomenon with billions of fans. It dives into the drama of World Cup showdowns, the cultural impact of the Asia Cup, and the economic powerhouse of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The episode highlights how cricket became a stage for diplomacy, a symbol of national pride, and a multi-billion-dollar industry.
Whether you are a lifelong cricket fan, following the latest Asia Cup 2025 updates, or just curious about why cricket matters to billions worldwide, this episode goes beyond the scoreboards to reveal the sport’s enduring power and global influence.
