Cricket with Abs!
September 30, 2009 - 6:16 am
Over the next few days/months, I will take you through a journey of the english game of cricket largely popular in India. I will be trying to explain stuff using images and maybe (If I can get hold of) videos. I know that just the textual knowledge is not sufficient to learn a sport, but atleast I am guessing, you will have an idea as to how it is played.
Here are the basics
Cricket is a team sport for two teams of eleven players each. A formal game of cricket can last anything from an afternoon to several days.
Although the game play and rules are very different, the basic concept of
cricket is similar to that of baseball. Teams bat in successive innings and attempt to score runs, while the opposing team fields and attempts to bring an end to the batting team’s innings. After each team has batted an equal number of innings (either one or two, depending on conditions chosen before the game), the team with the most runs wins.
(Note: In cricket-speak, the word “innings'’ is used for both the plural and the singular. “Inning'’ is a term used only in baseball.)
