Cricket is a popular sport in many countries, particularly England, Australia, India, Pakistan, South Africa, and the West Indies. It is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of eleven players each on a circular or oval-shaped field with a rectangular 22-yard-long pitch at the center.Cricket is a team sport played between two teams of eleven players each. Here are the basic steps to play cricket:
The game starts with a coin toss to decide which team will bat or bowl first.
The team that wins the toss chooses whether to bat or bowl first.
The team that bats send two players called "batsmen" to the pitch to face the bowlers from the opposing team.
The bowlers try to get the batsmen out by bowling the ball in such a way that it hits the stumps, or by causing the batsman to hit the ball in the air, which can be caught by a fielder.
The batsmen score runs by hitting the ball and running to the opposite end of the pitch, swapping positions with the other batsman.
The team that is fielding tries to prevent the batting team from scoring runs by stopping the ball and throwing it back to the wicketkeeper or bowler.
After a set number of overs, the teams switch roles, with the batting team becoming the fielding team and vice versa.
The game continues until all batsmen from one team are out or until the set number of overs is completed.
