Grammar

[edit]

Grammar is atrocious in this article. Please learn to properly use the words "a, and, the." In addition, do not use the word "Mr." when talking about specific people. "Mr." is too formal and personal of a designation, especially when writing about the person that others around the world will read. For instance:

When talking about historical figures, writers do not say "Mr. Ghandi," "Mr. Roosevelt," or "Mr. Tudor" when they write about Mahatma Ghandi, Theordore Roosevelt, or Henry the VIII. Nor do sports writers say "Mr. Jeter," "Mr. Beckham," or "Mr. Steinbrenner" when writing about Derek Jeter, David Beckham, or Goerge Steinbrenner. It makes it even more awkward when those of us in the English-speaking world don't even know who "Mr Pravesh" even is, as such a person isn't exactly as well known as David Beckham.

Adding the word "team" to the team name is also unnecesasry and awkward. You just simply say "New York Yankees." You dont say "New York Yankees team."

And finally, dont keep adding the word "the" before the name of the sport. Just say "leg cricket." Do not say "the leg cricket."

I erased most of the section under the International section because almost that entire section made no sense. I couldn't even parse what the author was attempting to even say. It was just complete trash.
