Batsmen swap ends
The batsmen of cricket swap ends throughout a match. This allows the batsmen to attempt hitting the ball at another end, and scoring runs. If they succeed, they can do it as many times as they want.
Two teams consist of eleven players. One team will bat and the other will bowl. Each team sends out their batsmen in a certain order according to their skill, ability and range. The bowling team's task is to limit the score of each other side.
All-rounders
An all-rounder is a player who can both bowl and bat in cricket. While all bowlers must bat at some point, a small number of batsmen also occasionally bowl. Most cricketers are specialists in one or the other and rarely perform well at both.
There are however a few all-rounders in history who stand out. Sir Garry Sobers and Imran Khan are some of the most notable all-rounders. These all-rounders have played in different eras and are considered among the best in history.
Innings
An innings refers to the time spent by a player or team batting. An innings refers both to the total time taken by the whole team to bat, and an innings refers solely to the time spent at the crease by one batsman. To score 500 runs, India would need an innings to bat first against England. This includes all the innings of each Indian cricketer.
An inning of cricket is 50 overs. Each team will play 50 overs in an ODI match. Five-day Test matches include two innings. An inning ends after 10 of 11 batters are gone.
Leg Before Wicket
The term "Leg Before Wicket" in cricket is used to refer to a situation in which a batsman is out due to a ball that has been blocked by the stumps. The umpire decides whether a ball has been leg before wicket (LBW) using three factors: pitch, impact, wickets, and the umpire. Before it hits the stumps, the ball must also miss either the bat or pad.
In the Laws of Cricket, Leg Before Wicket was first mentioned in 1774 when pads were used to stop the ball hitting the wicket. The law evolved over time and was improved. It was amended to remove any intent by the batsman, and it remained in full force for nearly 100 year. This was the beginning of pad-play. It became increasingly popular among batsmen. In 1935, the law was extended to allow dismissals for balls that pitch beyond the line of off stump.
Other runs are possible
There are several different ways to score runs in cricket. The most common way a batsman can score runs is to hit a ball beyond the boundary. A boundary is the point at which the ball reaches beyond the field edge without being caught. You can also score runs with no-balls or wides.
Fielding teams can also score runs. If a batsman tries to score a run, his body can help him deflect it. These runs are called "extra runs" and count towards his total.
