Are cricket games played on a level playing field?
I took the meaning of your question in a very literal sense.Cricket is not played on a level playing field.The cricket grounds are not flat.The turf is raised and the outfield slopes away from the center. No, like any other sport cricket is governed by rules,the weight of the ball,the size of the bat and what it is made of ,the size of the oval etc are all governed by a set of rules just like in any sport. Cricket stats like in any other sport are only relevant for a certain period.Cricket will change with the world and the past records will never tell the true story.You can’t compare a match played forty years ago with a one played now.So many things have changed.You can only compare the stats but stats don’t tell you everything. Plus you forgot about crowd support,that is a huge factor in any sport.To simplify things, most sports aren’t played on a level field. Happy independence to India and Pakistan.
