Why Rules Don’t Prohibit Grounds With Different Sizes In Cricket?

There are rules and standards in our lives which govern our activities. Why we have cricket grounds with different sizes. As a result, the shot which goes for six in a ground, is caught at boundary at a different ground.
Don’t you think that we should have grounds with similar size in the whole world just like hockey and football?
It is applicable for both the teams. A good player can easily
adjust with the ground size. If a ground is bigger he will
play laughted shots only in gaps or if he is sure he can cross
the ball to boundary. Only mistime shot cant through the boundaries. That is by mistake of a batsman or by good bowling by a bowler.
Some ‘why’s can’t be answered.
i well ask ICC dont worry
In other sports there is usually only one pitch , but in Cricket you need a number of wickets across a square and then a suitable amount of groundv caround the square to have a balanced boundary. Some grounds have a lot more use than others so need a bigger square hence possible different sized boundaries.
One of the great things about cricket is every ground has its idiosycracies, or distinctive features. If cricket grounds were forced to have a universal size, then many grounds would lose their distinctive feature.
