Why Cricket is not a Global Sport?

Cricket is treated as a religion in India. It was brought by English in India. It is gentleman game. So you wouldn't not see often in cricket that players pull their t-shirt when they are celebrating like in football.
 It also requires many equipment like you have to buy a bat  and a ball which are necessary to play the game.  A simple bat can be of rupees 1500 to 10000 and more.For ball, you have to spend a few bucks more. It can be said that it is a sport which requires expensive equipment as compared to other sports like soccer. That's why it had not gained such popularity. If you want to play professionally you have to buy a kit which includes gloves, pads,helmet and many more equipment.  It also requires a larger space. 
Even the sport is played by total of 22 players, only 3 players are involved actively. The Caribbean players tried  to overcome the traditional way of playing cricket and bought some changes and they even won the last held  T-20 World Cup.

To make  cricket, a global sport many changes have to be brought. The sport should be made less time consuming. Even the smallest format that is T - 20 consumes average 4 hours which is which is very much time consuming for working generation. The longest format test consumes 5 days which is  one of the longest for any sport. Due to opposition from many organisations, Cricket has not yet been entered in Olympics Small countries are not funded properly. All this hinder Cricket from being a global sport.

Is Cricket hindering the progress of other sports in India?

No sport is popular in India other than Cricket.  Cricket is treated like religion  in India. It was brought by British, so it has became a tradition. S o no one can change this. It is not in Olympic but the organisation which organise cricket  in India is very much influential, powerful and wealthy.  The organisation  has hindered the progress of other sports including Football. People does not want to see other sports. So the organisations of other sports are very weak. They can't invest much for the progress of their sports.Young generation does not want to look after other sports  because they think that other sports are not famous and don't have much money  which could sustain their life. This is also a big problem. Like, an Indian parent does not want to make their children footballer.  India has organised under 18 FIFA World Cup which is a big achievement. I think it brought some changes but the Cricket World Cup that ha...

The story of writing, astronomy, and law. The story of civilization itself begins in one place. Not Egypt, not Greece, not Rome. But Mesopotamia. Mesopotamia is an exceedingly fertile plain situated between the Tigris and the Euphrates Rivers. For five millennia,the small strip of land situated in what is today Iraq, Kuwait and Syria fostered innovations that would change the world forever. Inhabited for nearly 12,000 years, Mesopotamia's stable climate, rich soil and steady supply of fresh water made it ideal for agriculture to develop and thrive. About 6,000 years ago,seemingly overnight, some of these agricultural settlements blossomed into some of the world's first cities. In the period between 4,000 and 3,100 BC, Mesopotamia was dotted with a constellation of competing city states. At one point, they were unified under the Akkadian Empire and then broke apart forming the empires of Assyria and Babylon.  Despite near constant warfare, innovation and development thrived in a...
