Why cricketers rarely cry ?

[Sunil1z]

After watching scenes of Neymar crying today , Spain players and Suarez crying after being eliminated in the WC , my first reaction was that I can rarely remember players crying after losing.
Only players I can remember is Kambli crying in 96 WC SF, SA players crying in 2015 WC SF against NZ . There maybe few others but still my question is why cricketers rarely cry after losing?

They're generally not as melodramatic as today's footballers?

They don't actually care about cricket all that much.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

They commit suicide instead.

Michael Holding was in tears after Ian Chappell was given not out from a thick edge on the 75/76 tour. He was very young and learned from it and made sure it never happened again. The next time a similar incident occurred a few years later in New Zealand he just booted the stumps over instead.

Sachin cried in 03 word cup when McGrath proved he is father of Sachin

Cos even the players know cricket is a **** sport and no one cares about it

 

[Daemon]

Football players and fans tend to have lower mental and emotional intelligence and so cannot control themselves

It’s just a job for them. They play cricket because they weren’t good enough to play other sports.

Mentioned in OP.

Cause cricketers know their is no f****ng advantage of crying after losing.Cause they accept better team won.
Unlike Soccer which is like a 10 over cricket where they tend to be actor instead of being men.

Because they’re not babies. Sure maybe you can cry some tears of happiness over winning something, but bawling after a loss is disgusting.
