If the BALL HITS the WICKETS the CRICKET BAILS STUMPS One BALL If the BALL HITS the WICKETS the BATTER is out The WICKETS

But the BATTER/BATSMAN is here to protect the WICKETS with the And to HIT the BALL WICKET KEEPER

The BOWLER must bowl the ball with a STRAIGHT arm (he/she can not bend his/her elbow)

Do you know how we call when a bowler dismisses three BATSMEN consecutively? HAT-TRICK

The FIELD is oval PITCH

HOW MANY RUNS DID THEY SCORE? The PITCH HOW MANY RUNS DID THEY SCORE? WAYS OF SCORING a RUN: Getting past the line A run is scored when the two batters get past the line after hitting the ball BOWLER’S line (crease) WICKETS LINE (Crease)

HOW MANY RUNS DID HE SCORE? WAYS OF SCORING a RUN: 2. Scoring by hitting the limits (boundaries) of the field When the BATTER/BATSMAN HITS the ball and the ball hits the limits the team scores: 4 runs when the ball BOUNCES before hitting the limit. 6 runs when the ball goes over the limit without bouncing. AND NOW? HOW MANY RUNS DID HE SCORE?

If a FIELDER hits the WICKETS before the BATTER reaches the LINE, the Batter is out

If a fielder catches the ball before it bounces the Batter is out

If the batter hits his/her own wickets while trying to hit the ball the batter is out
