In situations where the fielding team has not recovered the ball, the batters return back to score two or more runs.
To record the scoring run, both batters need to touch the floor behind the popping crease with either their bat or body.
To score a run requires the batter to strike the ball and run to the opposite end of the pitch while their batting partner runs in the other direction.
The aim for the batter in cricket is to try to score as many runs as possible throughout their innings. The two teams change batting and fielding positions when ten of the eleven members of the batting side are out, a set number of overs have been bowled, or the batting team declares (when the captain voluntarily brings their innings to a close). If a bowler is dismissed ('out') the player returns to the pavilion and the next player comes out to bat. In situations where the ball is hit very well and it crosses the boundary, four runs are awarded and if it passes over the rope without touching the floor then six runs are awarded.Įach bowler is awarded six deliveries per over, unless the umpire calls a no ball or wide and in this situation an additional delivery is added. However, if the batter strikes the ball then the two batters will decide if they should run or remain stationary. If the batter decides not to hit the ball or misses it, the fielding team's wicketkeeper usually retrieves it. The first ball will be bowled at the batter 'on strike' and the bowler delivers the ball overarm at the cricket stumps. At the start of play, the fielding side will be strategically placed in different positions, and the two batters will take their place at either end of the pitch.Įach fixed period of time in which each team bat is called an innings. To begin the match, the captains of both sides toss a coin and the winner decides to either field or bat first.
