Cricket is a bat-and-ball sport that originated in England during the 16th century. It is played between two teams of eleven players on an oval field. Central to the field is a 22-yard-long pitch with a wicket at each end, consisting of three wooden stumps topped by two bails.
The batting team’s primary aim is to score runs by hitting the ball and running between the wickets, while the bowling and fielding team strives to prevent scoring and dismiss the batters. Cricket has evolved into various formats, including Test matches, One Day Internationals (ODIs), and Twenty20 (T20), each with distinct rules and durations.
The sport has gained global popularity, notably in countries such as India, Australia, and England, fostering a rich history and cultural significance
