Indians and their love for cricket are inseparable. Even on a family picnic, one of the members is sure to have a bat in hand. The game is so popular that space or lack of proper equipment will never be an obstacle because we have gully cricket! And there are no age constraints, from young to old, everyone knows how to hit the ball with a bat. While the outline rules are the same, in gully cricket everyone mends it a little for convenience. While, we as a nation have proved our love for cricket, time and again, it is not just humans, but animals too who know how the game is played.

We are not trying to exaggerate about Indian's love for cricket, but actually found videos where dogs play the perfect wicketkeeper, fielder, and even a batsman! Check out the videos below:

1. Wicketkeeper and fielder

This happy dog not only does perfect wicketkeeping but is a fielder too. Fielders like these are a must in every game to win matches!

2. The fielder

This one too like a pro at the game and does the fielding word quite well. With every 'Good boy' pat this doggy seems to get more interested in the game.

3. Best catch

That's the best fielder we could find! According to the video, it is actor and singer Gippy Grewal playing cricket with his son. But his dog gets all stardom at the first ball. Look at the catch, boy!

4. Needs a little more practice

This is one passionate dog! Although a little lost, Oxy manages to get the ball back to the bowler every time. Maybe a few more matches and the doggy could be a pro.

5.The batsman, YES!

Humans you think only you are good at the game, then test me. This one named Bruno is in no mood to give away the bat. Holding it strongly in its teeth, Bruno makes the children bowl for him while he bats.

6. The expert

While we are not sure if this is the same one as in the first video, we do strongly think so. The precision at which the dog plays looks like it has just become better at it with years. If you also think the same, do let us know in the comment section below.
