©Cricket is a game played between two teams of eleven players. The game is played with a ball and bat with an elliptical field. In the middle of the field, there is a station of 5.5 meters (2 yards) which is called pitch. On either side of the pitch are three pieces of wood called wickets. A member of the team (bowler) on the field throws a leather ball to the batsman of the other team by twisting his hand on one side of the pitch. The ball usually bounces once before reaching the batsman and the batsman defends his wickets.

How to play cricket
The goal of the batting team is to score as many runs as possible. A run is completed when both batsmen reach their crease on the wicket on the other side of them or place their call. The batsman can make a run at any time after the ball has been bowled. Runings also occur when the batsman delivers the ball outside the boundary.
Four runs are scored when the ball bounces off the boundary (boundary), and six runs when the ball bounces off the boundary without bouncing. The batting team's total runs can also be increased when the bowler moves the ball out of the reach of the batsman (called a wide or out-of-bounds ball), or when the ball is out of bounds. Rent (this is called nine-ball, and if the bowler bowls nine-ball in a one-day match, the batsman receives a free hit on which the batsman cannot be out) The batsman makes runs (this is called league bye, these runs are not written in the batsman's account), the ball goes without hitting anything and in the meantime the batsmen make runs (this is called bye, these runs are batsmen) These are called extra races.
The ball that is used in Test cricket, the white stripe that has emerged in it is called Sam in English.
