There is no limit on squad size. The Start The schedule for matches will be published before hand and teams are advised to adhere strictly to this to ensure a smooth transition between games (and so that we do not over run) Team captains will toss a coin to decide which team has the choice of either batting or fielding first. The Game Each match will last for 5 overs. Like in normal cricket once you are out (dismissals listed below) you are out. Overs will consist of 6 balls. Scoring (& some dismissals) o If the ball strikes the side wall and the ‘back’ wall (behind the wicket keeper) 1 run is scored - batters may also be caught off these walls o Each time the batters run 2 runs will be scored o So if they hit either of the walls stated above and run once 3 runs will be scored i. if the ball strikes either of these walls and a player is run out only the completed run is scored. ii. 1 overthrow will be scored each time the fielding side’s attempted run out strikes either side or back wall (4 runs if it hits the boundary wall – see below) o when the ball strikes the ‘Boundary Wall’ (the wall behind the bowler and (anything attached to it) – without hitting either side wall – it is immediately ‘dead’ the scores awarded depend on where it hits the wall, thus: i.

This unique series combines aspects of the expanding study of sport in the global society, providing comprehensiveness and comparison under one editorial umbrella. It is particularly timely, with studies in the political, cultural, anthropological, ethnographic, social, economic, geographical and aesthetic elements of sport proliferating in institutions of higher education. Eric Hobsbawm once called sport one of the most significant practices of the late nineteenth century. Its significance was even more marked in the late twentieth century and will continue to grow in importance into the new millennium as the world develops into a ‘global village’ sharing the English language, technology and sport.
