Best Answer

Evidence strongly suggests the game was devised during Saxon or Norman times by children living in an area of dense woodlands and clearings in south-east England that lies across Kent and Sussex (the Weald). In medieval times, the Weald was populated by small farming and metal-working communities. It is generally believed that cricket survived as a children's game for many centuries before it was increasingly taken up by adults around the beginning of the 17th century
