Answers
The world's first cricket club was formed in Hambledon in year 1760, and the world-famous Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) was founded in 1787. Cricket, having originated in south-east England, it became the country's national sport in the 18th century and has developed globally in the 19th and 20th centuries. The Marylebone Cricket Club evolved from the White Conduit Club in 1787, when Thomas Lord laid out his first ground in Dorset Square at the request of members. In 1810 Lord was forced to move his ground to an area bordering Regent's Park but that was far from popular and in 1814 he moved for the final time to the present site. The original pavilion, housing the club's artifacts, was burned down in 1825 but over the coming century the ground and the club evolved into being the centre of the cricket world.
