Surf it Fast- UC Cricket Browser

The journey of cricket in India started from the early Eighteenth century  when it was brought in by the English traders and soldiers. After the Britishers left India the popularity of the game grew so much so that it left behind other traditional games like hockey and football. The popularity of game can be gauged from the fact that the game got associated with big finances. Today cricket is a multi-billion dollar Industry. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is one of the richest bodies in the world . No wonder it has been in the news of and on for one reason or the other .
The format of the game has also been changing over the years. There was a time when spectators had ample time at their disposal . Those were the days of the two innings Test Matches which would continue for days together and people would throng the cricket stadium day after day cheering their favourite players . With the globalising of the Economy it became difficult for the spectators  to spare day after day to watch the game though its popularity never ebbed. With a view not to miss the game people could be seen glued to their transistors or Television sets at home and work places. Then came the era of  the One Day Matches with fifty overs on each side. The pace of the game became much faster and the cricket stadia were once again thronging to their full capacity.  Once again the viewership of the game increased. Not satisfied with the current format of the game the organisers wanted to further increase the thrill element of the game which gave birth to the Twenty20 matches.
Just as the format of the game has undergone transformation so has the manner of viewership of the game . With technological progress the manner of viewership has undergone  a sea change. While there can be no substitute for watching the match live at the cricket stadium sharing ones feelings with thousands of spectators , most of the time cricket fans cannot by and large afford to visit the stadium to witness cricket matches. In the days gone by the alternative would be to listen to the running commentary over radio sets or transistors. With the invention of the Television it was almost as good as watching the game live at the cricket stadium. Then came the biggest invention of all times the Internet which brought about a radical change in every sphere of life. With Internet came the android phones and the Iphones , tablets etc. With such devices the game could be viewed while on the move.
The Internet introduced various browsers for viewing the game . One of the best browsers that I have heard of  is the UC Cricket Browser. The browser enables watching the game like never before. How would you feel if due to some or the other glitches you are not able to view the game seamlessly. With the UC Cricket Browser one does not have to worry on this account. So before watching the next tournament don’t forget to watch the matches on UC Browser.
