AMERICAN REACTS TO CRICKET EXPLAINED FOR BASEBALL FANS || REAL FANS SPORTS 

Hi Guys, an Aussie here. One thing he wasn't clear about. When a bowler has finished his over, the next bowler bowls from the OTHER end. ie if a bowler was bowling from the southern end of a ground, the next bowler bowls from the northern end to the batsman who wasn't on strike. The batsman who is currently facing the bowling is said to be "on strike".

3:59 it's Malinga. You guys already reacted to him! :D

One thing is missed in this Video, That in Limited over cricket there is also a limitation on number of overs a bowler can bowl in whole match, For Example: - in 50 over matches, bowlers can bowl atmost 10 overs each, which means, one team should have atleast 5 bowler options for a match, it can be combination of some all-rounders and specialised bowlers. similarly in 20 overs match, Bowlers can bowl 4 over each and that's divided into atleast 5 bowlers in team. Note- team can use more that 5 bowler in inning based on situation of match or a bad day for any of thier bowler but not less than 5. In Test cricket its different because there is no limitation on overs, but still captain rotate bowlers because you don't wanna drain out your only 2 or 3 bowlers in 5 day match. I hope it helps.❤️

As people have said, you can't interfere with the fielder, the umpire will give you out IF it's obvious you are doing that. Similar to breaking up a double play in baseball, it is still a common tactic to run between the wickets in a way that makes the fielder's job more difficult, but not so much that an umpire is compelled to judge that you've obstructed the field. Mostly by running a line where you are in between the throw and the stumps, but being subtle about it.

In fact Brian Lara from West Indies once scored 400 runs in a test match which is still a world record

11:00 - if a batter deliberately stops the ball from hitting the stumps when potentially being run out, they will called out due to obstructing the field

13:55 In limited overs cricket (T20 or ODI), the bowlers have individual limits too. In T20 no bowler can bowl more than 4 overs and in 50-over ODIs the limit is 10 overs per bowler. So the team will need at least 5 different bowlers for the innings.

11:25 Yes, it's interference. Umpire decides if it's out or not. Fielding side can appeal though for sure! In fact, it's one of the tactics people use to "run out" a batter and the same hit the batter physically to hurt the overall team's morale!

The only thing missing in this video is that each team has 11 players and the bowling team only needs to take 10 wickets to deem the batting innings as closed, because of the rule that there must always be 2 batsmen. Using the current Australian team, here's some additional info about the team selection so that typically you will have a batting lineup similar to this: 1. Steve Smith - Opening Batsman, part-time leg-spin bowler 2. Usman Khawaja - Opening Batsman 3. Marnus Labuschagne - Top Order Batsman, part-time leg-spin bowler 4. Cameron Green - Top Order Batsman, All-Rounder, Right Arm Fast Bowler (All Rounder just means they are good at both batting and bowling based on their stats) 5. Travis Head - Middle Order Batsman, part-time slow spin bowler 6. Mitch Marsh - Middle Order Batsman, All-Rounder, Right Arm Medium Fast Bowler 7. Alex Cary - Wicketkeeper, Lower Order Batsman 8. Mitchell Starc - Lower Order Batsman, Left Arm Fast Bowler, Opening Bowler (first to bowl) 9. Pat Cummins - Captain, Lower Order Batsman, Right Arm Fast Bowler, first change bowler (usually bowls third) 10. Nathan Lyon - Tailender Batsman, Nightwatchman (a term used to describe a low order batsmen who goes in to bat ahead of a top order batsman at the end of the day to protect the top order batsman's wicket - basically, they are just there to block and stop a batting collapse), Off-spin Bowler 11. Josh Hazlewood - Tailender Batsman, Right Arm Medium Fast Bowler There is also the 12th man who does not bat or bowl, but runs drinks to the batsman and can come on as a substitute fielder if a top 11 player has to leave the field for an injury, bathroom break etc. In a recent rule change, this player may also replace one of the first 11 should a concussion rule that player out of the game.

You are correct that the batsman, once he has hit the ball without his bat, he cannot use his bat or his hand to interfere without where the ball is going. Another way a batsman can be called out is if he hits the wicket and knocks the bails to the ground.

The world's best batters have batting averages around 50 (i.e., 50 runs for every time they're out). Some specialist bowlers have very low batting averages (often around 5), so overall a good team total is around 350 runs for a full innings. Unlike baseball, there's no designated hitter, so if a team loses most of its wickets the weaker batters still have to bat. 11:10 - yes, one of the rarer ways of being given out is "obstructing the field". One thing that wasn't explained with overs is that after a set of six deliveries, the new bowler bowls from the other end, at the other wicket and batter. Usually, each bowler will have a bowling spell of maybe ten overs before being replaced, and a team will likely have about six players who can bowl, with several different styles of bowling - some will bowl fast, sending the ball down at 80 or 90 miles per hour, others will be slower bowlers who can make the ball curve through the air or spin it so that it changes direction when it bounces.

Lasith Malinga is that 'guy' who's a legend of the game!

It’s 10 batter ‘outs’ and your side is done, if you went first then it becomes the other teams turn to bat and try to beat the score you have achieved. If your opponent has already batted then you need to get to the score they made before the 10 outs or the overs finish.

In limited overs cricket bowlers are limited to the number of overs they can bowl, this is usually 1/5 of the total overs so you must use at least 5 different bowlers. In an one day game (50 overs) each bowler can bowl 10 overs, in T20 (20 overs) each bowler can bowl 4 overs

FYI - The first International Cricket Match was between the United States and Canada, an was played at St.George's Cricket Ground in New York from 24th to 26th September, 1844. So cricket was played in America before Baseball became the National sport. With the upcoming ICC T20 World Cup, the United States is playing Canada in the opening game on Sunday 2nd June at Grand Prairie Cricket Stadium, Dallas.

at 20:36, P2 means Power Play 2 ODI that is of 50 overs is currently divided into 3 Power Plays P1, P2 and P3, This is to ensure entertainment thought 50 overs as ODI was becoming bit boring since T20 cricket came into the light, spectators want more runs more boundary hitting P1 - 1st 10 overs - only maximum of 2 fielders out 30 yard inner circle, boosts lot of power hitting and boundaries P2 11th to 40th over - maximum of 4fielders are allowed outside the 30-yard circle, providing an opportunity for the batting team to accelerate the run rate. Conversely, the bowling team may use this phase to stem the flow of runs and pick up crucial wickets. P3) 41st to 50th over. Bowling team can have a maximum of five fielders outside the 30-yard circle, allowing bowling team to try and stop boundaries as batsman during this phase try to score maximum boundaries as in this phase batsman are not afraid to lose their wicket and score maximum runs, score sixes by hitting in air. Hope this helps

@25:21 the professional leagues or T20s are considered diluted versions not because of the integrity of the classic sport or class, or sweater vests etc of old times vs modernization of the sport etc... But the long form cricket both Test (3 or 5 days) and ODIs (50 overs) formats required a discipline from the players testing their mental fortitude, patience, stamina, focus, concentration and consistency as they had to play for longer periods of time. Especially the Batsmen had to survive on the field for longer times as long as possible, by protecting their wicket and not getting out (even multiple days in test cricket), while also protecting their body from the oncoming cricket ball, scoring runs consistently, at a steady pace to keep on scoring the necessary runs with discipline, control and controlled aggression when necessary. And the bowlers had to bowl so many more than 10 overs at times, in hot sun, which is tiring enough and since, the batsmen were on the defensive mode being mire cautious to preserve their wicket, the had to setup the batsmen playing the long game, studying their response, testing different deliveries and setting trap for the batsmen with strategy, tactics and technical skills to get them out, and also minimise giving up more runs. All this they have to do both at the physical level with stamina, strength, focus, skills, techniques, right bowl/shot selection etc., and at mental level with concentration, mindgames, strategies, tactics, persistence, and short, long term planning of strategies. This they have to do for prolonged periods of time consistently, which is the main challenge, where all of the skills, foundation of the player's skillset and techniques, physical and mental fitness are tested to the extreme, and in such long form formats, for batsmen getting out is the one thing they will try to avoid at all costs with all their might, as there are mire than enough overs to olay and there are only 10 wickets before which their team has to switch and they have to score as much as possible before that, and once the set of good batsmen (generally around 6 out if 11) are out, scoring will become even mire difficult as the remaining 5 players are primarily bowlers who are not specialized in batting. This makes batsmen to be onguard and play as much defensive (protecting the wicket and avoiding getting out is top priority) with only controlled necessary aggression to score runs whenever possible. This very reason makes the batsmen in long format cricket difficult to get out as they aciid taking risks, and thus it becimes even more tedious and patience game for the bowlers to get those batsmen out using studying the batsmen, playing mindgames, strategies, using their skills, choosing the right type if delivery, and tempo, etc which is even more challenging in test format. The bowlers also have a challenge of with what mindset they bowl. If a bowler is bowling conservatively meaning they are inly trying to control number of runs, then the batsmen can't score higher runs like boundaries etc, but batsmen can't get out as well. But if the bowler is bowling aggressively with intention of getting batsmen out, that also increases the risk of high scoring runs like boundaries or sixes (its a double edged sword). Now in fast paced 20 overs format T20, especially the professional league franchise matches they only focus on the spectacle, fast paced game, so everyone is on aggressive mode, batsmen are always trying to hit and bowlers are always trying to get outs, this leads to both high run scoring and high risk of getting out, thus making it more dynamic as per the score. But this kind of play style doesn't require much high level skill or technique or proper foundational training, but just the risk it all attitude, full throttle play style with skills, athletic abilities, sufficient enough to pull of great plays, which are flashy, exuberant, of course great moves, etc. The good T20 players are surely graet olayers but they can necer survive in a longer formats even the ODIs (50 overs). Whereas great long ODI players can surely do well in T20, as ODIs hit that sweet spot between the slowpaced patience game of test matches and hyper fast-paced T20 matches. ODI players need to be aggressive enough to hit back to back boundaries or defend the wicket and play defensive depending on the stage of the match and situation, that good ODI players have that balance if both aggression, strong foundation of technique and mental fortitude.

Way back when the only option for me was to follow it on radio, I had to resort to a piece of 24" square piece of cardboard and mark on it all the basic field positions, and gradually learn the adjectives which vary them - forward/backward, deep/long/mid/short(/silly), wide/square/fine - then there are the random weird position names, like "3rd man", "cow corner" ... not forgetting that it all mirrors for left-handed batters.

What was not explained was the type of bowlers. There are pace bowlers who bowl about 146 kmph , medium pacers who bowl between 130 to 146 kmph , spinners - off spinners and leg spinners. Broadly this is the category.. though there are sub classification also.

Up until the 1960s (I think) there were both amateurs and professionals who played together. In England there used to be an annual game The Gentlemen (amateurs) against The Players (professionals). The first professional to become captain of England was in 1952.

the USA has been a member of the ICC ( International Cricket Council) since 1965

I think one thing he doesn't mention is that each over is bowled from the opposite end to the previous one. On TV the picture is almost always from behind the bowler so it's not always obvious.

With the Fielding Positions, if you notice the white line surrounding the pitch; this is used for One Day and T20 matches, in both games there are fielding restrictions. This is where Powerplay(P1 & P2) come into play. In ODI, during the first 10 overs of the innings, a maximum of two fielders are allowed outside the circle, this is called P1; between overs 11 to 40, only 4 fielders are allowed, and the last 10 overs, only 5 fielders are allowed. In T20, during the first 6 overs, only two fielders are allowed outside the circle, this is called P1; beginning with the seventh over, no more than five fielders are allowed.

3:59 slinga Malinga ❤ the only bowler who makes dhoni tremble

After an over is completed the new bowler bowls from the other end .... that means the batter that was not facing the previous bowler becomes the new facing batter. This really matters when poorer quality batter is batting with a strong batter ( usually when several wickets have been lost) .... it means they are more likely to be dismissed so the stronger batter tends to try to run on the last ball of an over to " protect" the poorer batter ( and the team, especially when there are already 8 or 9 outs).

Bowling wides is quite common cause wide balls are sometimes attempts to make the bowler play a ball away from his body and nick the ball for a catch.

In T20 (which world cup USA gonna host ) a baller can ball 4 over max , and in one day baller can ball 6-10 overs , and in i don't know much about test . And three of them have World Cups . And yeah it's much more popular than baseball .

Every team will have at least 5 or 6 players that will bowl in any given game , they will usually be different kinds of bowler to mix everything up

The problem that occurred with Test Cricket, was that over time, there were batsmen who would take to long to make runs; basically, they were extending their time at bat but not scoring the runs. As they say, "It wa like watching paint dry!". Spectators were looking for the thrill of the older style of Test Cricket. Most 1st Class Cricket, either County or District matches, are played over a weekend; so with much less time, teams were chasing runs. SO, more appealing.

One thing you missed re overs (cos you paused but didn't rewind) is that each over is bowled from alternating ends. So over 1 from the north, over 2 from the south. Over 3 from the north. Etc. The batters don't change ends except when scoring runs. So if there's a good batter and a bad batter towards the end of an innings, the good batter will try to "retain the strike" by scoring 1 run at the end of the over so he's still "on strike" in the next over. You rarely notice on TV cos they have a camera at each end, but watch the shadows 😉

3:58 he is Malinga checkout his hattricks (hattrick in cricket means taking 3 wickets in 3 consuctive deliveries ) He have taken 4 wickets in 4 consuctive deliveries 2 times ( only one to do it ODI , first one to do it in t20i,there are 3 other bowlers has done that in t20i)

There is a restriction on number of overs a bowler can bowl in Limited overs matches (That is ODI and T20)..in ODI (One Day International - a bowler can bowl a maximum of 10 overs, in T20 it is 4 overs) but which over a bowler bowls will be decided by the captain of that fielding team..(even the number of overs also) but some bowlers have specific expertise ..hence the captain will use them accordingly..and there is no restriction on when a bowler can bowl..so if a captain thinks that this particular bowler has better record against an opponent batter ..then the captain will ask that bowler to bowl.. There is another format called Test Cricket which lasts for a maximum of 5 days.. in that there is no restriction of number of overs an individual can bowl..For example , a day in test cricket consists of mandatory 90 overs ..so if the captain wants a bowler to bowl..he can bowl him all day ..that is bowler will bowl a maximum of 45 overs in a day!! (but that generally doesnt happen because bowlers get tired)

If the bowler hits the wicket but the bails stay in place, then the batsman is not out; the bails(either one or both) have to be dislodged. There was a classic bowl that removed the middle stump, but the bails did not fall; they actually supported each other from falling, NOW that doesn't happen everyday!

Sports Explained’s Rugby video is great too

at 21:54: Each team bat for maximum overs mentioned earlier in my comment based on type of cricket match being played or maximum of 10 wickets as a team consists of 11 players and in cricket at any point of time should be in pair. Why I said maximum of 10 wickets is - is out of 11 nominated players for a match 1-2 gets injured and cannot bat then batting team would run out pair earlier based on injured players so if 1 batsman cannot bat, team can lose 9 wickets and 10 person would be out of pair as 1 of their batsman is injured. This player is by default given Absent hurt or Absent out

That Guy is the greatest ever fast bowler in T20s

In Test Cricket, the batting team starts with their No.1 and No.2 batsmen, and progress through their line-up; and when they play their 2nd Innings, they start again with their No.1 and No.2 batsmen and progress through their line-up. It is irrelevant whether all batsmen were out during the 1st Innings, as a team can achieve a VERY high 1st Innings score and the Captain can call(declare) the innings; thus the fielding team will then take their turn at bat. Also, if the second batting team is all out and does not reach a prescribe score with respect to the other teams run score; they can be called to bat on. This means the second team will then bat their 2nd Innings, and try to beat the 1st Innings score from the first batting team; in other words, the first team has foregone their 2nd Innings; which can put pressure on them to get the second team out 'cheaply'before they beat their run score. Test Cricket tactics can be acquainted to the game of Chess, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.

Wides are very common in limited overs cricket (t20 or 50-overs), but in first class and test cricket more latitude is given to bowlers. Technically a wide is a ball that is too wide for a batsman to play a 'normal stroke', it is open to interpretation and also dependent on the stature of the batsman. In limited overs almost everything that goes down the 'leg-side' is called 'wide'; the batting team is given an extra run and the ball must be bowled again.

The bowlers change ends everytime the bowlers change, and the previous bowler can come back to bowl from the previous end; also bowlers do not bowl to the same batsman in an Innings when a odd number of runs are taken(I.e.: 1 or 3 runs). In the Limited Overs Format, bowlers are limited to the number of overs they can bowl in an innings; in One Day(ODI) a maximum of 10 overs, while in T20 a maximum of 4 overs.

Once the ball is 'in play', the batsmen or runners are not permitted to tamper with the ball in anyway; if the bat comes into contact with the ball being thrown, if no attempt was made to interfer with the ball then the batsman is not out.

Great video. The next bowler has to come in from the other end, which can make a big difference. The fielding side often tries to keep the batsman whose strenght is bowling & fielding at that end. Also the conditions change at each end.

Your question at 11:19 If during a run out ( the clip you referring is showing a run out) batsman changing the course of action knowing to come in between the ball and wicket and if fielding teams appeals and if umpires feels that is the case(batsman changed course knowingly through replays) than batsman is given out "Obstructing the field". and if they don't change the course of run however he still comes in between thrower and wicket - then batsman is not out as he didn't change course of his run and then it becomes fielding team duty to ensure they throw for run out accordingly

NonP is correct. The batsman is entitled to run between the ball and the stumps in his normal line. Deviating from that line to purposely get in the way of the ball can result in him being called "out" for interference. Also the batsmen handling the ball is another method you can be out (eg ball hits the bat but is about the bounce into the stumps and the batter blocks it with his hand). Zach - Limited overs have a maximum amount of overs the each bowler can bowl (20% of the total), so minimum of 5 bowlers have to be used. Test cricket - you could use only 2 bowlers assuming they are physically up to the task of bowling 45 overs (270 balls) each day (highly unlikely) and the batsmen don't get used to the same bowler. Sometimes teams will "match-up" their bowlers according to the batsman. For example, if they feel a batter is weaker in a certain area they may start with a spin bowler, or maybe start a left hand fast bowler instead of a right hand bowler, or chop and change bowlers regularly so batsmen don't "get set" against one bowler.

The best thing about Test Cricket is how the storylines develop over the 5 days, both teams can be taken right up to the wire and still draw and they can be the most exciting matches. A team can have a brilliant 30 minutes and undo the other teams hard work done over the last 2 days. I would recommend having a look at the ashes 2005 - probably one of the best series of all time.

11:00 That is sort of a grey area I believe. Checkout the 2019 ODI World Cup final ending, between England and New Zealand. Absoluture thriller that also includes what you said about a batsman interfering the throw with his bat while crossing.

Its Bowlers! Not Pitchers. Haha You got me! It was on my head, saying exactly like that haha love it

★A WELL DONE BREAKDOWN🙌🏽👍🏽🙌🏽🤟🏽THANK YOU SORS FOR RWACTING TO THIS GREAT CRICKET EXPLAINED EPISODE BY THIS GOOD BASEBALL BLOKE🙌🏽🙏🏼🙌🏽👏🏼★

most of the batters till the early 2000's that had above 35 average were considered good. above 40 were the greats and above 50 were some of the absolute bests. nowadays the game has been tilted to the batters due to various factors. now run scoring is way easier and the margins have slightly shifted forward

If you want to experience it live then you should watch the live broadcast of Icc 20-20 world cup is starting from 2nd June. It is happening in USA.

11:14 if a batter wantedly interupts when the ball is thrown. it will be given as out for obstructing the field

11:08 that is another type of out which is called as obstacting the fielding

You have to get 10 wickets, you have 11 players and one player will always end the game as" no out" on the score board, you have to have two baters at the crease.

There are 11 players in a team and once 10 players are given out the innings ends In ODI bowler can bowl 10 overs In T20 bowler can bowl 4 overs In test there is no limit

I still feel the best way to fully understand the game is to see a full game (preferably live). It gives a complete idea of rules and gameplays and nuances. Maybe watching an IPL game, as the league is currently going on, would be a great idea before moving to watch the World Cup in US and Carribean.

Whether you are gonna love/learn or hate cricket depends on how you would perceive the game. I am a life long cricket fan myself but i have never seen ir played a baseball game before. But in 2015 i randomly downloaded a baseball game in my phone and just played it. At first just like you it felt so gibberish to me but in my country we have a game so similar to baseball called "rounders"(it was invented by british as well). So i played the baseball game according to my knowledge of the rounders and after a week or so i got the hang of the game. I really loved it. Still i am probably don't know the 70% of how baseball works but i can confidently say i can definitely watch a baseball match because i know the basics very well. So for you guys watching this video might be the ultimate learning curve, Don't overthink some of the nuance like the fielder positions because i can say confidently even the majority of pro players Don't know 100% what every fielding positions are called because they place fielders according to their pitching plan it's commetators responsibility to explain those positions when are watching a game. Great reactions guys next T20 world cup is held in USA and carribeans so i wish you both to watch a game in person. I think the usa games are played in florida.

In first class fames, the captain of the bowling team will generally start with his two accustomed 'opening bowlers'. They will probably be his quickest bowlers; bowler #1 at end 'a', and #2 at end 'b'. He cannot bowl them for ever because fast bowling is very tiring and he needs to keep them fresh for later in the innings; over-bowling them is also quite likely to cause minor or even serious injuries. So he might give them 5, 6, or 7 overs, but then bring on hus change bowlers or a slow spinner. Most captains would want to have four or five bowlers they can choose from; different tyoes of bowler can be more effective for different conditions.

The commonest individual innings in cricket is '0', it is what everyone starts with and it is not automatic that you will add to it, if you get out for nought (0) it is called a 'duck'. A batting average for a professional, specialised batsman in first-class cricket would probably range between 30 and, say, 55. At 30, you are hanging on in there, at 40, you are a good, reliable pro, at 45 you have real talent. At 50+ you are in the top league! A batting average is worked out by dividing the number of runs scored by the number of 'completed' innings. A completed innings is one in which the batsman is out. There are common scenarios in which a batsman is 'not out,' but has to stop batting. So, for instance if a batsman played 24 completed innings, and scored 1,000 runs his/her average would be 41.66. However, if in those innings he remained not out on 4 occasions (for instance ) then his/her average would be 1,000 divided by 20 = 50.00. A bowler's average is calculated by dividing the number of runs scored off his/her bowling by the number of batsmen he/she dismissed; so 1,000 runs divided by 50 wickets gives an average of 20.00 per wicket. The lower the bowling average, the better it is for a bowler.

One slight error was when he said the target for England was 222, because that is what India had scored. The "target" for the team batting second is, obviously, what the first team scored, plus 1 more run, to win. He also wrong about how recent there were cricket professionals (and btw all the players shown here are professional-paid sportsmen/women). There have been professional cricketers for around 200 years or more, What complicated things was that in the top class teams there were also a minority of amateurs, who were good enough players, who had enough private income to play without a wage. Amateurs (gentlemen) were accorded greater social status and were virtually always selected as team captains. The whole Gentlemen and Players set up, in England, came to an end in 1962, after that there were just players.

A running batsman is not permitted to wilfully interfere with a fielder's throw to prevent a run out. If a batsman did that he would, on appeal, be given out 'obstructing the field'. It's a rare dismissal (because they know it is not allowed) but it does happen when a batsman has a 'brain failure'. Similarly, neither batsman can interfere (by word or deed) with a fielder who is attempting to catch a batsman out.

One thing on stumpings that doesn't usually get mentioned is that if the batter hasn't hit the ball the wicket keeper must wait until the ball passes the stumps before they can touch it, otherwise it's a No Ball (this is part of the general Law on the wicket keeper's equipment and positioning)

this june there will be cricket world cup held in America and west indies Hope u guys can attend a cricket match and experience how cricket is played

if the batter interferes or blocks a throw that can be a run out, then there is another type of out that is not discussed in the video. that is call obstructing the field. and there have been very few instances of obstructing the field. one of them happened just a few days ago in ipl

ONCE AGAIN, For LBW: the batter does not "allow" to hit the ball on his body. It basically happens because he was trying to play the ball and he misses the line and the ball hits his pads.

Wides in test cricket are pretty rare (it pretty much has to be off the pitch), but in Limited Overs cricket, the rules on wides are more strict and anything pitching behind the legs is called a wide, or outside a the small mark on the batting crease on the offside.

Another thing rarely mentioned in such videos is that the way a batsman can be out when there is a no-ball is reduced to Run Out, Hit the Ball Twice, or Obstructing the Field. A Wide is simlar, though the batsman can also be stumped off a wide. In both cases, the delivery does not count towards the 6 in an over, and must be re-bowled.

There’s a great follow up to this by Sports Explained too

@fixion there is another way of getting out like u rightly pointed out, its called obstructing the field, if a batsman does purposely try to obstruct a throw at the wicket

Glen Maxwell has signed to play in the American Major League Cricket competition

11:00 If the batter did this intentionally then fielding team can appeal for 'obstructing the field out'. Umpire can give it out if they think that's the case

Legally all 11 players on field can bowl, but a team has dedicated bowlers and then all rounders who possess both batting and bowling skills.

That bowler is Malinga from Sri Lanka and his bowling action was controversial right from the start of his bowling career. There was a lot of debate as to whether or not it was legal and in the end it was decided that it was legal because he bowled with a straight arm like every other fast bowler, its just that he couldn't lift his arm above a certain height so it looked wrong but he got away with it. Two hundred runs is not unheard of in fact batters on debut have scored over two hundred runs, its the 300 run club that's exclusive, less than 10 batters and only Brian Lara from the West Indies has hit 500 runs. The batter once he has hit the ball into play he cannot deliberately interfere with the ball or else he's out! The captain is responsible for the strategy of the game and directs who bowls and who doesn't. Each day in the five day game is actually split into three 2 hour sessions with drinks after the first hour of each session. Each session is usually around 30 overs so at the completion of 30 overs the umpire will call 'lunch' and remove the bails. At the end of the second session the umpire will call 'tea' and remove the bails then at the completion of the third session the umpire will call 'stumps' and remove the bails which will complete the days play. After 80 overs are bowled a new ball will be introduced and if 90 overs are completed before 'stumps' then time may be added, however, if the bowling side are too slow in completing overs and do not complete 90 overs within the hour then they can be fined.

11:12 Good question. In such a scenario, the batsman would be out for one of two causes (though either almost never occurs)- One is double-hitting, since you are not allowed to hit the ball twice as a batsman unless you're protecting your wicket. The other one is unforgiving though- obstructing the field. These are both Umpire's call though, and almost never occurs, as stated earlier.

At 9:35 when you said we might have to look at some stump outs, that was Amy Jones. She as quick as a cat.

the ICC ( International Cricket Council) is the global governing body of cricket, was formed in 1909 founding members were Australia , England and South Africa, there are 12 full members and they are the only countries to have the right to play official test matches, and 96 Associate members that can play limited over international games

1:25 it's obstruction of field, and If the fielding side appeals and umpire Determines that the batting side deliberately blocks the ball or deflect it while the ball is being in play other than the delivery the batsman faced, he can dismiss the batsman on grounds of Obstructing the filed

at 21 T20 match has maximum of 20 overs per team ODI - one day international has maximum of 50 overs per team in a day Test match 90 overs in a day for 5 days continuously - team can play maximum of 2 innings 1 over has 6 balls thrown by a bowler so 23.4 would mean - bowling team had completed 23 overs and 4 balls of 24th overs. Post 2 more balls by bowler it would read as 24

Normally you’ll have something like 5 bowlers but theoretically the whole team can bowl, I think others have explained some of the other restrictions on bowlers

Bowler's sometimes do wide ball intensionally to limit the batsman swings radius thus reducing the changes of him hitting six and also if the batsman accidents touches these wide balls he won't be awarded free run as part of wide ball... bowlers do set field according to his plan of pitching the ball therby batman hitting the wide ball could be predicted prior..

If you wanna see some Stumping check out any MS Dhoni compilation, Fantastic Wicket Keeper, Solid Batsman, and Captain of India for a long time.

Yes, there are various fielding positions in cricket. Team captain sets the field according to the context of the game. The captain might tell the fielder to go and stand 1-2 meters from the batsman or field in the boundary line. And the p2 thing that you didn't get to know, it means 2nd powerplay. There is 3 powerplay in odi and 2 in t20s. But I'm not in mood to explain what is powerplay. You better google it.👍

Hundred = a century = a ton. 200 = a double ton/double century Batter can only bat for as long as they can (provided they don't get out) in test cricket. In ODI's and T20's they're limited overs. So they couldn't bat more than the overs allow.

11:18 At a situation like that, the fielding team can appeal from the umpires and then they will decide whether the batsman interfered intentionally or not. They check this by looking whether the batsman change their running path to stop the ball reaching the wicket.

In a lot of movies you're probably seeing county or club cricket on quaint English fields. They also wear white. A bit like traditional tennis (also English lol)

There's also a companion video by this guy, more like a part 2 of this one...would love you guys to check that one out too..

19:23 When the guy says Broad is 0-24 and he says he's allowed 24 runs... during his overs there could also have been other runs that don't count against the bowler. These include byes and leg byes. Byes are usually considered "mistakes" by the wicket keeper as the bowler bowled a legal delivery and the way byes typically are scored is the wicket keeper failed to gather the ball cleanly allowing the batters to run even though they didn't hit it or touch it. Leg byes don't count against the bowler either. They are usually not considered a mistake by anyone except maybe the batter who wasn't able to hit the ball with their bat or evade a ball at their body successfully. The batters can run if they were trying to evade or trying to hit it. If they just let the ball strike them without any sincere effort to avoid getting hit, they aren't allowed to run.

do a watch along of a live match . you will learn 95% of cricket in that

13:53 in One Day (50 over) games, bowlers are limited to a maximum of 10 overs each; I think, in T20, it’s a maximum of 4. Tests, of course, are unlimited

a no ball is a free hit where the batsman can't go out

In a test match, if the 1st team scores a really high score in their 1st innings, and the 2nd team doesn’t come close to that score in their 1st innings… the 1st team can send the 2nd team back in to bat straight away for the 2nd innings without the 1st team playing their 2nd innings first. This is called ‘forcing the follow on’. If after the 2nd team’s 2nd innings, they still haven’t matched or exceeded the 1st team’s score… the 1st team will be declared the winner without needing to play their 2nd innings. Also, a team can ‘declare’ their innings ended if they have a high score, without needing to have all their player bat. Cricket can be a very tactical game. Also, unlike baseball… it is the captain of each team who makes these decisions. Not a manager.

20:49 in limited overs game (ODI or T20) only 50 or 20 overs are played . once the specific no. overs have been played the innings come to an end , even if all the batters have not played. on the other hand in test cricket (first class cricket) there are no specific amount of overs. The bowlers will have to bowl till they take all 10 wickets .

Cricket is basically a science and a wise captain plays a huge role in success of his team. Their are few legendary captains who proved to be great leaders for their country's team like: Dhoni for India. Imran Khan for Pakistan. Ricky pointing for Australia. Pat Cummins for Australia. These guys were insane magicians on cricket field with their mind games

For how many bowlers can bowl the overs: In limited over cricket i.e 50 over ODIs or 20 over T20 cricket, a biwlers can biwl a max of n/5 overs as the bowling team HAS to use at least 5 bowlers if thr overa are completed. In Test cricket, there is no limit to how many overs you can bowl or how many bowlers can be used to bowl.

Wide is rare like 3-4 in whole one day international match with 50 overs (1 over consists of 6 Balls) so that's 300 balls. Wide ball is when it is out of reach of batsman bat. SOem times bowler tries to frustrate batsman by bowling a ball further from batsman but still within the wide call mark(mark as reference for umpire) if balled wisely, it is used to frustrate the batsman as well

watch part 2 of this video

Btw for the wide/no ball the batting team gets 1 and the bowler has to bowl a seventh ball in an over

1:23 More annoying is when someone refers Bowling as "throwing" which in Cricket has very specific meaning & not allowed for Bowlers to do while Bowling. Also these days Batsman/Batswoman is called "batter" which is just as annoying. Another one is referring to the benches the teams sit on during T20 matches as "dugout". It's like deliberate use of baseball terminologies. 25:17 They can still wear sweaters if it's very cold like un England most Cricketers from the Subcontinent & the Caribbean will feel more cold especially during the winter.

There are a few other ways of getting out that aren't common, but happen occasionally. One is "obstructing the field", which others have explained. Another is "handling the ball", which when a batsman, while playing a delivery, intentionally touches the ball with one or both of their hands not holding the bat. A decision of not out would be reached if the batsman handled the ball to avoid incurring an injury. This is now part of the "obstructing the field" law. This usually happens when the ball hits the batsman, or the batsman hits the ball, and the ball bounces towards the wickets and the batsman knocks the ball away with a hand. "Hit Wicket" is where the batsman hits the wickets and dislodges a bail with his body or equipment (e.g. bat, pads, helmet) when playing the ball or trying to take off for a run. Ninh's video mentions "hit wicket", but does not explain it well, and showed an example of a run out. "Hit the ball twice" is much rarer, and involves the batsman deliberately hitting the ball twice (can be bat or body), but it is not out if it is done to prevent the ball from hitting the wickets. It has, apparently, only occurred once in international cricket, in a match between Romania and Malta. "Timed Out" is when a batsman is out and the incming batsman takes too long to get the field and be in position to take the next ball, or be at the non-strikers crease. A batsman in last year's ODI World Cup was the first to be "timed out" in international cricket.

If the batter gets on the way of the thrown ball from a fielder while scoring run, usually its ok :). Sometimes the batter would just show a gesture of apologizing to the fielding team and the fielding team accepts that. Plus, batters are trying to score, so its not always possible to avoid that kind of accidental blocking of the thrown ball. Also, its their best interest to avoid getting hit by the ball and be injured from it.
