Cricket

Have you heard of cricket?

It’s a long game…

Two teams hit a ball.

Try to knock it over the boundary.

Two players run between stumps

On the playing surface

Between the two wickets.

A bowler bowls a ball fast or slow

Seamers, googlies, bouncers, catches.

The bowler tries to hit the wicket

Two short bales lie on top of three stumps.

That’s the wicket.

Hit the bales and knock them off?

Or knock over the stumps

Player is out.

11 players to a side

Two play

10 field

1 bowls

Collect runs to win.

1 point running between stumps

4 if the ball rolls to boundaries.

6 if the ball flies out over the boundary.

That’s cricket in a nutshell..

Highest score wins

Don’t get your leg before wicket…

It’s a very big nutshell…
