Cricket History

Cricket History and Rules

Cricket originated in England, evolving from a children's game to a sophisticated sport that spread across the British Empire. Today, it's one of the world's most popular sports, particularly in South Asia, Australia, and England.

The game is played between two teams of eleven players each. One team bats, attempting to score runs, while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and limit the scoring.

A cricket match can be played in several formats:

Test Cricket

The longest format, played over five days between national teams

One Day

Limited to 50 overs per team, typically completed in a single day

T20

Fast-paced format with 20 overs per team, lasting about three hours
