Cricket writing

Cricket is a fun sport where you need 11 people normally on each side,but you don't have to. If it is your turn to bat, you really want to get runs but not get out at the same time. 


The Wicket Keepers job if the batter misses it,then they have to try and stop the ball. The Bowlers job is to get people out for the least amount of runs, so their team has a better chance of winning. 


How to score runs. This is the Batsmens job, aiming  to hit the ball as far as they can and then they run to each other's end. They stop when they think they could get run out. If you hit it far enough you might get four or even six, but to get a four or six the ball has to pass the rope on the full for six or one bounce or more for a four. 


Now for bowlers' jobs. The bowlers change every six balls which is called an over. To get a batsman out you can either catch the ball on the full which any fielding player can do. The Bowler can also get  the batsman out, by bowling the ball into their leg pads, or bowling into their wickets.

Now for the final job.  If you are a feilder you have to try and stop the ball so you can run them out or stop runs. The team with the most runs at the end wins.
