The Champ turns 66. The only time Ali has ever agreed to take such ‘beating’ is this event in 1975.

Cricket with Tennis Balls, NYC

November 23, 2007 By: Emon Category: Sports, Emonome 2 Comments →

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while: start a weekly Cricket game played with tennis ball, at any NYC park. That’s not the right ball you play cricket with but we’re not looking at professional careers here; just wickets, bats and balls. Soft-ballizing Cricket may offend some but we know better than to give a shit about them. Simple: 7 players per team and 25 Overs each side.

If enough people are involved, we could eventually start a league and play other city and state teams. Anyone interested? Know anyone who would be? Men, women, youngsters everyone! It’s not so much different than baseball, so baseball players are welcome. And it’s a very, very fun game - promise!
