There is pitch where the play in the middle of the ground,bowler has to run and he deliver the ball 10 fielders are around their job is to stop the ball when its hit by the batsman.after hitting the ball batsman runs for score he has to reach to the other side of the pitch to complete single run.You can get maximum 6 runs.there is a boundary if the ball fall outside of the ground you will get 6 runs and if its role over batsman gets 4 runs.

How the batsman gets out? when the bowler bowl there are 3 stumps behind the batsman if ball hits the stumps means the batsmen gets out.The other type of out is when batsman hit the ball if it goes up in the air and fielder catch that it will also be called out.

    • Yes cricket is one of the most popular games in Pakistan and other European countries as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa...but lucky and the best players rare in teams as Mr. Tendulkar belongs to India and Shahid Jhan Afridhi belongs to Pakistan. Your cricket introduction nice and good. JH Sayyar

      • Yes i agree with you Tendulkar is one of the great player. He hold the record of more centuries by any individual.The other side Afridi is an entertainer hi stay on crease for while but people love his style of bating.

      • Yes it is the most famous game not only in Pakistan also other countries like England,South Africa,Australia,Newzeland,etc.

    • Americans are not really into cricket. We're into football and I know that other countries are into soccer. I'm not particular about sports and the only time I've seen a game of cricket was in a movie. Must say, it really looked like fun!! :)

      • Oh yes you are right cricket has not been played in America but i think now last time there were to matches were played between India and West indies .Icc is now interested to introduce cricket in USA as well.
