The most watched sports competitions in the world

1: The Summer Olympics
The Summer Olympics are among the most watched sports competitions in the world, although they compete each year with the Football World Cup, the first place in the rankings. With 3.6 billion viewers, or 50% of the world's population, the 2012 London Summer Games remain ahead of the Brazil World Cup.
Main winning factor: an audience record of nearly 1 billion people attending live at the Opening Ceremony. Simply phenomenal!

You now know all of the most watched sports competitions in the world. Perhaps you are part of all those viewers who contribute to these record audiences. At Kazaden, no doubt, we are part of it too! But we have, all the same, a small preference for the sports of nature. 
2: The Football World Cup
This event is so popular internationally that when we talk about the World Cup, no need to specify that it is football. For instance, at the 2010 edition in South Africa, 3.2 billion people gathered in one of the most watched sports competitions in the world. In the final that saw Spain win against the Netherlands, 715 million viewers watched their television screens, while the two countries combined a population of around 64 million people, or just 9% of the total viewers present tonight!

 3: The Winter Olympics
Little sister of the summer competition, she does not hurt, having gathered a total of nearly 3 billion viewers at the last edition that took place in 2014 in Sochi in Russia. Although not yet broadcast throughout the Summer Games, the Winter Games unleash the passions and become increasingly popular, making it one of the sports competitions the most watched in the world

 4: The Cricket World Cup
If cricket is not extremely developed in France, we must not forget that it is a major sport in some countries including England, India or Pakistan. Among these, there are therefore emerging countries whose population exceeds one billion individuals. As much to tell you that the hearing of the Cricket World Cup, also called ICC Cricket World Cup, easily reaches hundreds of millions of viewers. Unfortunately, it is still too difficult to establish precise figures in these countries, especially regarding the semi-final of March 30, 2011 between India and Pakistan, which was probably the most watched cricket match of all time.New players in PSL 2018

Cricket: the exotic sport that drives the British crazy

Image
During my stay in Spain, a comment I've often heard about British culture is this: What the hell is cricket? If you consult it in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy you will find the following definition: "Ball game that is practiced with wooden pallets". Meanwhile, in his book Education of Leisure and Free Time with Alternative Physical Activities, Manuel Martínez Gámez Mara gives us a little more detail: "Cricket is a sport of English origin, which is played outdoors between two teams of eleven players / as, with bats, balls and rakes ". It has become clear…? Do not? The fact is that summarizing the fundamentals of the game is almost impossible without writing a minitose. And perhaps that's why the famous British lexicographer, Samuel Johnson, did not include a definition of cricket in his first dictionary of the English language, which was published in 1755 - more than a decade after the first official regulations of the game were esta
