[wdvltalk-social] Any Cricket Players?

[joseph harris]

Gad!   James.   Did you leave the Long Room door open again? 
Isn't it enough that we lose the game?    Bring me another glass; 
someone seems to have bitten a chunk out of this one...

>>:
>>: * 11 players per team.
>>: * One team bowls while another bats, there are two batsmen in 
>>play at any
>>: one time, one at each end of the wicket which is twenty two 
>>yards long
>>and
>>: has a set of wickets at each end.
>>: * The wickets comprise of three vertical sticks (the stumps) 
>>and the
>>bails,
>>: two short sticks across the top of the stumps.
>>: * The bowling team's bowler bowls (throws) the ball at the 
>>wickets. If he
>>: succeeeds in removing the bails the player is out.
>>: * The batter can also be out by hitting the ball in the air 
>>and being
>>caught
>>: or by preventing the ball stricking the wickets using his 
>>leg.
>>: * Bowling is grouped into "overs", there are six throws of 
>>the ball in an
>>: over. After an over the bowler switches ends to bowl at the 
>>other wicket.
>>: * Play continues until ten players on the batting side are 
>>out.
>>: * The batsman tries to strike the ball so that the two of 
>>them can run
>>from
>>: one wicket to the other. Each time they does this it's a 
>>"run", i.e. one
>>: point to the batting side.
>>: * If the batsman hits it over the pitch boundary it's four 
>>points, or six
>>if
>>: it goes over without touching the ground.
>>: * Both sides get two attempts at batting called an innings or
>>alternatively
>>: a fixed number of overs is agreed.
>>: * When the game is over the side with the most runs wins.
