Can someone please explain me the rules of the Test Cricket match.?

Question

I am quite familiar with the game of cricket. and a die hard fan of the one day matches. But i just cant seem to follow how test match is played. Can someone tell me how it is done...???

Answer 1

test match is of 5 days. each team gets to play 2 innings.
any team can declare if they think that their score is well enough to beat the opposing team.
the runs made by the teams carry forward in the second innings.
if there is no result in the 5 days then the match is said to be draw.
there are many more things that i can tell you, but ask me a particular question of what you didn't understand...

Answer 2

Test cricket

Test cricket is a form of international cricket started in 1877 during the 1876/77 English cricket team's tour of Australia. The first Test match began on 15 March 1877 and had a timeless format with four balls per over. It ended on 19 March 1877 with Australia winning by 45 runs.

The Test cricket series between England and Australia is called The Ashes, with the trophy being a tiny fragile urn, reputed to hold the ashes of a bail or cricket ball used during the second Test series between the two countries. The tiny urn was presented to the English Cricket Captain, Ivo Bligh, by a group of Melbourne women, following the Test Series win by the England Cricket Team, during the England Cricket Team's Tour of Australia in 1882/83.

Since then, over 1,800 Test matches have been played and the number of Test playing nations has increased to ten with Bangladesh, the most recent nation elevated to Test status, making its debut in 2000. Test matches are two innings per side, usually played over five consecutive days. Tests that are not finished within the allotted time are drawn

Answer 3

Overs are not limited.

A team can bat till they get out or don't want to bat anymore.

Teams bat twice, ie there are 2 innings.

The team which takes 20 wickets (gets the other team out twice) and scores more runs wins.

There are 5 days to complete a match.

If no one wins the match within these 5 days, the match is drawn.

Answer 4

The word cricket is based either on the word "cric", meaning a crooked stick possibly a shepherd's crook (early forms of cricket used a curved bat somewhat like a hockey stick), or on the Flemish word “krickstoel", which refers to a stool upon which one kneels in church. The history of cricket prior to 1650 is something of a mystery. Games believed to have been similar to cricket had developed by the 13th century. There was a game called "creag", and another game, Handyn and Handoute (Hands In and Hands Out), which was made illegal in 1477 by King Edward IV, who considered the game childish, and a distraction from compulsory archery practice. References to a game actually called "cricket" appeared around 1550.

Answer 5

TEST CRICKET IS BASICALLY A 5 DAY GAME.EACH TEAM PLAY IN WHITE DRESS. THE BATTING TEAM CAN GO ON TILL EITHER THEY ARE BOWLED OUT OR THEY DECLARE.
THERE ARE TOTELLY 4 INNINGS. THERE IS A FOLLOW ON ,i.e, IF A TEAM BATTING SECOND ARE BOWLED OUT IN LESS THEN HALF OF THEIR OPPONENTS SCORE THEN THE OPPONENTS CAN ENFORCE A FOLLOW-ON . IF AFTER 5 DAYS THERE IS NO WINNER THEN THE MATCH ENDS IN A DRAW.
