What Are Innings And Overs in cricket ?

Answer 1

An innings is a session of cricket. Once out a batsman is replaced by the next batsman. The innings of the batting team ends when the tenth batsman is out thus the team is all out. At the end of the innings the teams swap around and the fielding team becoming the batting team. The game is divided into overs of six balls. At the end of an over the batting and bowling ends will be swapped and the bowler replaced by another member of the fielding side. The fielding positions and the two umpires also change positions at this time.

Answer 2

In classic cricket 5 days game test match two inning are played, the are like 9 innings of Base Ball.

In each innings there are 10 players out.

Over consist of 6 balls(each Bowler throws, a boll six time). Then the other bowler takes over.

In library you will find a book on cricket with rules and regulations, and pictures.

Answer 3

Shivangini forgot one small detail.
In a limited overs match (for example ODI) the maximum number of overs(50 in ODI) allowed is played or till 10 batsmen are out whichever is earlier.
And in a test match both teams play two innings alternatively and over limit is not present. Instead the batting team has an option to declare their innings complete if they want even if all 10 batsmen are not out. A test match is played for a maximum of five days if all 4 innings are not completed then match ends with no result.

INNINGS:
-------------

An inning, or innings, is a fixed-length segment of a game in any of a variety of sports – most notably baseball and cricket – during which one team attempts to score while the other team attempts to prevent the first from scoring. In cricket, the term innings is both singular and plural and is always spelled and pronounced with the terminal "s". In baseball, the singular form is inning and only the plural takes an "s".

In many other sports, the length of the game is dictated by a clock and teams swap offensive and defensive roles dynamically by taking possession of a ball or similar item. In baseball and cricket, however, one team, said to be "batting", attempts to score "runs"—see run (baseball) and run (cricket)—while the other team, said to be "fielding", attempts to prevent the scoring of runs and get members of the batting team out. The teams switch places after the fielding team has succeeded in getting a fixed number of players out, making a clock unnecessary.

In cricket, the term innings is also used to refer to the play of one particular player (Smith had a poor innings, scoring only 12).

OVERS:
------------

the sport of cricket, an over is a set of six consecutive balls bowled in succession. An over is normally bowled by a single bowler. However, in the event of injury preventing a bowler from completing an over, it shall be completed by a teammate.

An over must consist of six legal deliveries. No balls and wides do not count toward the six-ball tally. The captain of the fielding team decides which bowler will bowl any given over (subject to the restriction that no bowler may bowl two overs in succession).

At the completion of each over, the direction of bowling reverses, so that the new bowler will approach the batter from the opposite end of the pitch. No bowler is allowed to bowl consecutive overs. Generally, the captain will appoint two bowlers to alternate overs from opposite ends of the pitch, until one tires or becomes ineffective, at which point the captain will replace that bowler with another. The period of time during which a bowler is part of such a pair is known as a spell.

In one-day cricket, bowlers are restricted to the total number of overs they may bowl in a match, and the length of the game is determined by the total number of overs bowled (usually 40 or 50 per innings). In Test and county cricket, teams are usually required to bowl a minimum number of overs per day to prevent spoiling of the game by a slow over rate.

A maiden over is one in which no runs are scored. A wicket maiden is one in which no runs are scored and a wicket is

Answer 6

the person who bowls is called a bowler. when he does a legal throw, it called a bowl...six such throws (bowls) maketh an over. in one day games, 50 such overs makes an innings...then the batting team comes out to bowl and vice versa
