  • Name – Nitin Kumar Class – 12Th 'B' Roll No. – 9752*** Teacher
    ON Name – Nitin Kumar Class – 12th ‘B’ Roll No. – 9752*** Teacher – Rajender Sir http://www.facebook.com/nitinkumarnik Govt. Boys Sr. Sec. School No. 3 INTRODUCTION Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings. In professional cricket the length of a game ranges from 20 overs of six bowling deliveries per side to Test cricket played over five days. The Laws of Cricket are maintained by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) with additional Standard Playing Conditions for Test matches and One Day Internationals. Cricket was first played in southern England in the 16th century. By the end of the 18th century, it had developed into the national sport of England. The expansion of the British Empire led to cricket being played overseas and by the mid-19th century the first international matches were being held. The ICC, the game's governing body, has 10 full members. The game is most popular in Australasia, England, the Indian subcontinent, the West Indies and Southern Africa.

  • Summary of the Key Changes to Laws 2017 V2.Pdf
    SUMMARY OF THE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE LAWS OF CRICKET 2017 CODE There are still 42 Laws, although two previous Laws have been deleted, with two additions. The significant changes are: • The Handled Ball Law has been deleted, with its contents merged into Obstructing the Field, reducing the list of dismissals from ten to nine. This will have no effect on whether a batsman is dismissed; rather, it is just the method of dismissal that might be changed. • The Lost Ball Law has been deleted and is now covered under Dead Ball. The umpire is satisfied that the ball in play cannot be recovered (‘lost’ within the playing area. It is considered lost if it can’t be found or recovered (gone down a drain or into a river), runs scored are those runs completed plus the run in progress if the batsmen had crossed at the time when Dead ball is called. • The old Law 2 players off the field of play has been divided into two separate Laws, relating to the batsmen (Law 25) and the fielders (Law 24). These Laws have changed the concept of Penalty time, which starts to accrue immediately when a player leaves the field (There is no more 15 minutes grace period) and which will also now affect when the player may bat. Time off the field up to a maximum of 90 minutes must be served back on the field before a player is allowed to bowl. Further if the a player still has penalty time to serve and his team is now batting then he cannot bat until the penalty time is served or 5 wickets have fallen.

  • A Cricket Field Can Range from 100-160 Yards Across and Be Any Size Or Shape As Long As It Is Hard and Fairly Flat. Equipment
    A Cricket field can range from 100-160 yards across and be any size or shape as long as it is hard and fairly flat. Wicket Equipment: Cricket Ball - Hard, cork and string ball, covered in leather. Joined in two hemispheres with the seam like the equator and the stitching is raised on the seam. The ball is traditionally dyed red, with the stitching white. Cricket Bat - Made of willow and the blade is flat on one side. It is humped on the other side for strength. The bat can only be a maximum of 38 inches long. Wickets - There are 2 wickers - wooden structures made up of 3 stumps topped by a pair of bails. Stumps - 3 wooden posts 1 inch wide by 32 inches high. Bails - 2 wooden crosspieces that sit in grooves atop the stumps. The Game: Cricket is a team sport for 2 teams of 11 players each. A formal game of cricket can last anything from an afternoon to several days. Although the game play and rules are very different, the basic concept is similar to that of baseball. Teams bat in successive innings and attempt to score runs, while the opposing team fields and attempts to bring and end to the batting team's innings. After each team has batted the same number of innings the team with the most runs wins. Play begins when the bowler (like a pitcher) bowls a ball to the batsman. It must be bowled over arm and the arm must be straight. The difference between bowling and throwing is that the elbow is cocked when you throw.

  • Credit to Possible Off a Bowler Fielder No Ball? Wide?
    DISMISSALS IN CRICKET Which Credit to Possible off a Method umpire? Bowler Fielder No Ball? Wide? Bowled Bowler’s end Yes No No Impossible Caught Bowler’s end Yes Yes No Impossible LBW Bowler’s end Yes No No Impossible Hit-wicket Striker’s end Yes No No Yes Stumped Striker’s end Yes No No Yes Hit the ball twice Bowler’s end No No Yes Impossible Handled the ball Bowler’s end No No Yes Yes Obstructing the field Bowler’s end No No Yes Yes Run out Either No No Yes Yes Timed out Bowler’s end No No No No Retired out Bowler’s end No No N/A N/A Notes: • Being bowled takes precedence over any other form of dismissal. Eg: If the batsman is hit on the pads and could be deemed LBW but the ball goes on to hit the wickets, the batsman is out bowled. • Being caught takes precedence over all other forms of dismissal except for being bowled. • Timed out: this happens when the new batsman takes longer than 3 minutes to take their position unless there is some valid reason for this. • Hit the ball twice: this happens when the batsman hits the ball in play, and then before the ball is touched by the fielder hits the ball again. This does not apply if the batsman is returning the ball to the fielder, if it has already been touched by a fielder, or if the batsman is attempting to protect their wickets. • Hit wicket: this is when the striker hits their own wicket with their bat or person, while the ball is in play.
