Cricket is definitely a gentlemen’s game. It is one of the sports that have a huge craze among people all over the world. After Football, Cricket is the most popular game around the globe. Coming to India, after Bollywood, it’s cricket which works as the essential source of entertainment for the people in the country.
Have you ever wondered what this Cricket is called in different parts of the globe?
Well, many of us don’t know what cricket is called in other parts of the world but we recently got know what it is known in China. In China, the word for cricket is so funny that it will make you laugh, even our Yuvraj Singh couldn’t stop laughing when he got to know.
Recently, Ramiz Raja, a Pakistani commentator, asked Yufie Zhang (Chinese Player) about the same. Well, Zhang said that in China, cricket is called “Baancho”. Isn’t it funny?
Bancho is the favorite word of every second Indian, isn’t it?
Yuvraj Singh found the word very funny and he just couldn’t control his laughter. He even shared this interview on his Instagram handle and gave a hilarious caption. What made Yuvi laugh more is the pronunciation; well “Baancho” sounds like an abuse in Punjabi, isn’t it?
“Cricket in Chinese called baancho! ???? looks like they called a Punjabi to name it in China ??????????????????????,” Yuvraj wrote.
Two Chinese cricketers have joined the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL). They are part of Peshawar Zalmi camp on a special invitation by the franchise. The cricketers, Jian Li and Zhang, will train with the Peshawar squad.
