Cricket

Cricket is a sport played between two teams of eleven players each. The game involves one team batting, attempting to score runs by hitting a pitched ball with a bat and running between two wickets, while the opposing team bowls and fields to restrict runs and dismiss the batters. The batting team's goal is to accumulate as many runs as possible before their innings end, either by dismissal or reaching a set number of overs. The team with the most runs at the end wins. Cricket matches can vary from quick Twenty20 games to longer Test matches spanning multiple days.
