Cricket: everything in one place
Bat, bowl and field in the great team game of patience. A whole-platform hub assembled from 8 sections of existing, cross-linked knowledge — skills, rules, equipment, science, calculators, comparisons, diagrams, learning and research.
Overview
Cricket is a bat-and-ball team sport in which two sides take turns to bat and to bowl and field. The batting side scores runs by hitting a bowled ball and running between markers, while the fielding side tries to limit runs and get batters out.
It is played in many formats, from short, fast games to longer matches that unfold over hours, and in outdoor and indoor settings alike. The mix of batting, bowling and fielding means there is a role to suit different strengths, and softer balls make beginner and youth versions very approachable.
