CRICKET

Cricket Rules

In cricket, two teams compete to score more runs than the opposing team. One team bats, trying to score runs by hitting a ball with a bat, while the other team fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen (those batting). Runs are scored by hitting the ball and running between two wickets (a set of three wooden stumps) at each end of the pitch, or by hitting the ball to the boundary without it being caught or touching the ground outside the boundary
