in cricket what is 111 called??

Answer 1

nothing

Answer 2

It is called Nelson, but in isn't just 111, Nelson is any score where all three numbers are the same, ie 111, 222, 333, 444 etc.
It is meant to be bad luck for the batting side. The batsmen off the field should all stand on one leg. Umpire Shepherd famously always did so when either team made the figure.
The name was coined in the mistaken belief that Lord Nelson had one eye, one arm and one leg: in fact, he had two legs...

Answer 3

that is the number of runs in the over

there are 6 balls in an over

then 111 means

that he made 1 run int he first ball 1 run in the second ball and 1 run in the third ball


if a person made all 1 run in every ball then it would be

111111

Answer 4

The superstition is that you should only have one leg on the ground if you are the batting team - batters exempt. It is the nelson (or sometimes called the half nelson).

If you were referring to the number of runs scored, it you accumulate a number of single runs you can get the nickname 'picket' after a picket fence. I played with someone who had over 40 in a row.
