'I always try to stay one step ahead': Krunal Pandya
Cricket has evolved significantly since its inception in the 16th century, transitioning from a low-profile sport to a global phenomenon. The introduction of limited overs formats, particularly One Day Internationals and T20 cricket, has transformed the game, leading to the establishment of the Cricket World Cup and franchise leagues like the IPL.
