Cricket.

Cricket is the newest addition to the list — and the one I'm most actively learning right now.

I've played casually for years. Pickup games, informal matches, the kind of cricket you play because everyone else is playing. But in 2026 I decided to take it more seriously: structured training, working on technique, and actually understanding the game at a tactical level.

There's a lot to love about cricket. It's a game of patience and precision. A good batsman reads the bowler, the field, and the conditions before the ball is even bowled. A good bowler engineers situations over an entire spell, not just individual deliveries. At its best, it's chess with a bat and ball.

I'm still early in this journey. Working on batting technique primarily — footwork, head position, shot selection. The goal is to be genuinely competent at the game, not just enthusiastic about it.
