Jens - 2009-07-09 11:37 PM wgraves7582 - 2009-07-09 2:26 PM Alright can you guys explain the scoring of cricket? Looks a little like baseball but I am sure there is a lot more to it than that. You hit the ball with the paddle and you get 25 points? How much time do you have? Please go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket You hit a a ball and get a point every time you run between the sticky things (wickets) (in teams oftwo) If the sticky things get hit by the ball by bowling or while you are running between the wickets then you are out and the next person on the team comes in to bat... (only one person gets out at a time) You can also get out if the ball is caught on the full... Once all the members on your team is out you then become the fielding team... and the other team becomes the batting team... So the points count the number of people on your team who are OUT and the number of runs you have achieved
Does that cover the basics???

Hi all. Auge! Again????? That breakaway WON'T stay away. Not with Chav & Millar. BTW Jens, my postman delivers too & I don't fancy him either. Cat, who was that rider in the picture you posted? What's the cricket score. I forgot to tape the highlights last night. Missed Pieterson's dismissal. It was a howler by all accounts. Yay!!! Hi Honey! Welcome home! Crickets Aus 64/1 chasing Englands 435 Alright can you guys explain the scoring of cricket? Looks a little like baseball but I am sure there is a lot more to it than that. You hit the ball with the paddle and you get 25 points? Saw Richard Bransons advert for broadband??? with his face painted with the England flag & jibe to Ricky Ponting in free paper on train today. How are the Aussies taking it? In good spirits? I thought it was rather clever. I havent seen it... http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/mediamonkeyblog/2009/jul/08/richard-branson-sydney-harbour-bridge |
