Quidditch:Cricket :: Bush:Brains
Don't worry I am not going to go through analogies and coach you for your competetive exams. There is this journalist from The Toledo Blade who thinks Quidditch is a cricket type game.
Here is her description of Quidditch.
***QUIDDITCH: A wizard game, played on flying broomsticks. Quidditch is a wildly exciting, cricket-type game that is an obsession with many in the wizarding world, including Harry and Ron.

If you are ever in a position where you are desperately trying to convince a Toledan (I assume people from Toledo would like to be called Toledan's) that you don't play cricket with broom sticks, you know whom to blame. I think the Toledans might even feel a little let down if they ever get to see a 5 day cricket match (Imagine if they call this a wildly exciting game then what would be termed as boring).
