how to play cricket
Cricket is played by two teams of 11, with one side
taking a turn to bat a ball and score runs, while the
other team will bowl and field the ball to restrict the
opposition from scoring. The main objective in cricket
is to score as many runs as possible against the
opponent. Before the match begins, the captain of
both teams will toss a coin, with the winner of the toss
being able to decide which team bats and fields first.
