Now,Why PC Cricket Games Have Become Popular In India? Articles many people feel curious to know why PC cricket games have become so popular in India.

What are the Reasons for Their Addiction to Online Games?

Some of the reasons behind the addiction towards virtual games are discussed below:

Traveling

Space crunch is a reality of 21st century India. People need space to play cricket. Such space may not always be available near the home of the players. Hence, many players need to travel a long way to reach a park or some cricket ground. Such daily travel makes the players feel exhausted soon. On the other hand, when people play PC cricket games, they do not have to make long distant journeys. Hence, they save their energy, which they spend on the game.  

Hectic Schedule

People of the 21st century are career-oriented. The career goals compel people to lead a hectic schedule. So, they do not have enough time to dedicate to cricket. If they play cricket online, they may arrange a match whenever it is convenient for everyone. So, the pressure of attending a match on time doesn’t exist. People may virtually enjoy a cricket match on their computer when they are free. Here, they may also collaborate with other people who are free at the same time.  

Less Risk of Injury

We often see players rolling on the ground, clutching a limb, moaning in pain, during a cricket match. When cricket matches are going on through computers, there are no chances of someone getting injured. Hence, we may safely say that playing cricket over the computer may be safer for the player’s health. There have been several instances when cricketers have lost a limb or become grievously injured during a match in real life. For example, a renowned player had been blinded in an eye by a ball. The same is applicable for spectators.  

Fees

Spectators need to pay a hefty sum to watch the football match in real life. The spectators may also be charged an excessive amount for buying a bottle of water or a snack. However, PC cricket games may be downloaded and played free of cost. So, people may play many online cricket games without burning a hole in their pockets.  

Maintenance

of equipment: In a game of cricket in real life, uniforms, bats, and balls need to be maintained diligently. The players cannot play with broken bats or dirty balls. It is a regular task to clean the cricket equipment. However, the burden is not there in a game that may be played over the computer.  

Conclusion

A common proverb says, “All work and no play make Jack a dull boy.” Hence, games such as cricket are important for a healthy body as well as a healthy mind. Virtual games of cricket have recently been glorified.
