How is cricket played? I know similar to baseball but do yu get one time at bat?

Answer 1

Basically, each team has 11 players, 2 of which have to be in bat at a time. so therefore when the 10th player is out, the 11th cannot bat by themselves. so 11 players, only 10 wickets. A wicket is i guess the same as an out in baseball, i don't know baseball that well tho. so one team gets the other team out 10 times, then it's their turn to bat, and better the score of the first team. depending on where the ball is hit around the ground, and how far the 2 "at bat" batsmen run, then the score varies each bowl (pitch if you want). need further in depth info ? ask me again.

Answer 2

In Test matches, u get to bat twice, in one day International, which is a 50 over per team,get to bat only once. after the toss of the coin, one side take batting and the other fielding.There are 11 players in one team, including 1 wicketkeeper. There are a lot of similarities between baseball and cricket. A test match last for a total of 5 days.

Answer 3

Cricket is a team sport usually played between two teams of eleven players each. It is a bat-and-ball game played on a roughly elliptical grass field, in the centre of which is a flat strip of ground 20.12 m (22 yards) 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 (the bowler) 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 (the batsman), who defends the wicket from the ball with a wooden cricket bat. Another batsman (the "non-striker") stands in an inactive role near the bowler's wicket.

Generally, the batsman attempts to strike the ball with the bat and run to the other end of the pitch, exchanging places with his partner, scoring a run. However, he can attempt to run without hitting the ball, and vice versa. While the batting team scores as many runs as it can, the bowling team returns the ball to either wicket. If the ball strikes a wicket with enough force to knock a bail off before the batsman nearer to that wicket has reached safety, then the batsman is out, or "dismissed". The batsman can also be out in a number of other ways, such as failing to stop the bowled ball from knocking the bails off, or if a fielder catches the ball before it touches the ground. Once the batsmen are not attempting to score any more runs, the ball is "dead" and is bowled again.

Once out, a batsman is replaced by the next batsman in the team. As there must always be two batsmen on the field, the team's innings ends when ten batsmen are out, and the teams exchange roles. The number of innings, and possible restrictions on the number of balls in each, depend on the type of game played. At the end of the match—of which there are several definitions—the team that has scored more runs wins. In first-class cricket, a draw can result if the team to bat last fails to match the required total before a time limit is reached. This can add interest to one-sided games by giving the team in the worse position an incentive to play for a draw. This is distinct from a tie, which results if scores are level at the completion of both teams' innings.

Cricket has been an established team sport for several centuries. It originated in its modern form in England and is popular mainly in the present and former members of the Commonwealth. In some countries in South Asia, including India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka, cricket is by far the most popular sport. Cricket is also a major sport in England and Wales, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Zimbabwe and the English-speaking countries of the Caribbean, which are collectively known in cricketing parlance as the West Indies. There are also well established amateur club competitions in countries as diverse as the Netherlands, Kenya, Nepal, and Argentina (see also: International Cricket Council).

A match can last six or more hours a day for up to five days in one form of the game — the numerous intervals for lunch and tea and the rich terminology are notable aspects that can often confuse those not familiar with the sport. For its fans, the sport and the intense rivalries between top cricketing nations provide passionate entertainment and outstanding sporting achievements.

Answer 4

Two teams of 11 players. One team bats, the other bowls and fields. Two batters go onto the pitch, one at each end. The fielding team selects one of their number to be bowler and he/she bowls six balls in succession to the batter. The batter can be dismissed if the ball strikes the wicket and dislodges the bails, or the batter hits a ball which is caught by one of the fielding side (on the full), and there are a few others ways. When ten of the eleven players in the batting side are dismissed, the two sides exchange places and the bowling side becomes the batting side. There are variations on the rules, but in the full game, each side bats twice.
This is a big subject and my answer is very short, but you might get an idea from what I have said. Good luck.
