cricket player

A cricket player is an athlete who participates in the sport of cricket, a bat-and-ball game played between two teams. Each team has eleven players who take turns batting and fielding. The primary objective is to score runs by hitting the ball bowled by the opposing team and running between designated areas called wickets. Cricket players specialize in different roles: batsmen score runs, bowlers deliver the ball, and fielders assist in catching and preventing runs. They compete in various formats, including Test matches, One Day Internationals, and T20 games, each varying in length and rules.
