Cricket is a sport originating in South-East England then moved quickly to the wider world. It is played with a group of people splitting up in to two teams and having a coin toss. The winner of the toss gets to pick whether their team wants to Bat or Bowl.
The team that Bats send to geared up batters out. The gear you need to bat is a Helmet, Two leg pads, One thigh pad, Shoes, A box / cup and a Bat. When the go out one batter goes the the striker end (The end where the ball will end up) and the other batter with go the the non-strikers end( The end where the bowler lets the ball go from). When the ball is bowled if the batter on the striker's end hits it and there is an opportunity for both batters to run and swap ends before the wicket keeper or bowler can knock the bails of the wickets then you would try and do it. When you are of the strikers end batting if the ball hits the wickets before ou have hit the ball then you are out which means you go of the field and let the next batter will come on and do the same thing. When 10 batter have gotten out you swap side and the other team has a bat and your team has a bowl.
The team that is bowling has a few more jobs than the batting team
