When was cricket invented, anyhow?

Wikipedia says this:

"A basic form of cricket can be traced back to the
13th century, but it may have existed even earlier
than that. The game seems to have originated among
children of the farming and metalworking communities
in the Weald between Kent and Sussex. Written evidence
exists of a game known as creag being played by Prince
Edward, the son of Edward I (Longshanks), at Newenden,
Kent in 1300."
