A community portal about Cricket with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Cricket is a bat and ball sport, played between two teams each of eleven players. A cricket match is played on a grass field, in the centre of which is a flat strip of ground 20.12 m long, called a pitch. At each end of the pitch is a set of wooden stumps, called a wicket. A player from the fielding team propels a hard, fist-sized cork-centred leather ball from one wicket towards the other. The ball usually bounces once before reaching a player from the opposing team, who defends the wicket from the ball with a wooden cricket bat. The batsman, if he or she does not get out, may then run between the wickets, exchanging ends with another batsman, who has been standing in an inactive role near the bowler's wicket, to score runs. The other members of the bowler's team stand in various positions around the field as fielders. The match is won by the team that scores more runs.
