NZ's Sport

Cricket
Cricket is a bat-and-ball team sport that originated in England and is now played in more than 100 countries. Another name is ‘sport for gentleman’. It is played on a glass plot field, it has a tea time.
The team consists of eleven players. Batsman is a player in the act of batting. Bowler is a player in act of throwing bowl. They don’t have glove, but catcher have glove.

*How to be called OUT!!!
Bowled – the bowler break the wicket.
Caught – the batsman has hit the ball has been caught on the full by a member of the fielding side.
Leg before wicket –that the batsman would have been bowled if the ball had not hit his leg first.
Run out – a member of the fielding side has broken or "put down" the wicket with the ball while a batsman was out of his ground.
Stumped – is similar with the Run out but the wicketkeeper do that.
Hit wicket – if the batsman dislodges one or both bails with his bat, person, clothing or equipment in the act of hitting the ball, or when setting off for a run.
Handled the ball – a batsman must not deliberately use his hand to protect his wicket
Timed out – as the word, the next batsman should arrive at the wicket within 2 minuts ofthe previous one being dismissed.
