    Do you have any idea how much it actually costs to play? Not cheap.

    Haven't the foggiest. Out of curiosity, what aspect of it is expensive exactly? Is it the equipment or competition entrance fees or field rental or combination of all? Cricket never struck me before as being particularly expensive to play.

    Equipment. A bat is 40+ gloves and leg guards about 70+ and a helmet im not sure a ball is 10 and you need at least two a match
