From the time when I felt this sport is something interesting i.e, during WC11. But I have researched a lot & can say that I updated with some sorts of info about the game from 90s till date.

For me it was during 2003 CWC more so during the famous India-Pakistan match I remember it so vividly because of the fact that it was Dad who explained almost every single aspect of the game.

I grew up with watching cricket. I watched cricket with my family whenever they showed it. I would say when I actually started following it seriously is around 2002 or so, the first time I actually read the entire Laws in full.

EDIT: Great idea for a thread.

Followed it seriously after the 2013 CT final win over England.

1996 world cup is when I got hooked to this sport and got obsessed about the God of cricket and then just got crazy about the sport as well

When Kaif took single and India won Natwest Final. Ganguly was also another reason ! From that day i took CRICKET as my religion.

2005 Ashes was the first series I followed and was invested in (I was 9, so was not following it with an in-depth appreciation of things like technique or even tactics from an analytical perspective, but just as a supporter).

2006 India-Pakistan ODI at Kanpur, where Afridi hit a 45-ball 100

Steve Harmison's seven for 12 was the first time I really started to make cricket one of my main interests, although before that I thoroughly abused the highlights of the India-Australia 2001 Test series I had on VCR

I took an interest in cricket when my male colleagues formed a team and played a few times, we went along to support them and i quite enjoyed it, i thought joining a forum i could learn more about cricket and tennis at the same time
