history
  • In 1975 the first Cricket World Cup was contested
    in England as a series of one-day matches of 60
    overs per side. It was held outside England,
    in India and Pakistan, for the first time in
    1987. The 1987 contest also saw the number of
    overs per side reduced to 50. In
    2007 Australia became the first team to win three
    consecutive World Cup tournaments.

cricket
  • Englands national summer sport, which is now
    played throughout the world, particularly in
    Australia, India, Pakistan, the West Indies, and
    the British Isles.
  • Cricket is played with a bat and ball and
    involves two competing sides (teams) of 11
    players. The field is oval with a rectangular
    area in the middle, known as the pitch, that is
    22 yards (20.12 meters) by 10 feet (3.04 meters)
    wide. Two sets of three sticks, called wickets,
    are set in the ground at each end of the pitch.
    Across the top of each wicket lie horizontal
    pieces called bails. The sides take turns
    at batting and bowling (pitching) each turn is
    called an innings (always plural).

  • Sides have one or two innings each, depending on
    the prearranged duration of the match, the object
    being to score the most runs. The bowlers,
    delivering the ball with a straight arm, try to
    break (hit) the wicket with the ball so that the
    bails fall. This is one of several ways that the
    batsman is dismissed, or put out. A bowler
    delivers six balls at one wicket (thus completing
    an over), then a different player from his
    side bowls  six balls to the opposite wicket. The
    batting side defends its wicket.
