Cricket is a globally popular sport that combines strategy, skill, and teamwork, making it an exciting option for fantasy sports enthusiasts. In cricket, two teams compete to score runs, with one team batting and the other bowling and fielding. The objective in fantasy cricket is to create a virtual team from real players, whose performances in actual matches earn you points.
Basic Rules of Cricket
- Teams and Players: Each cricket match is played between two teams, typically consisting of 11 players each. Players are specialized in batting, bowling, and fielding.
-
Match Formats: There are three main formats of cricket:
- Test Cricket: Played over five days, with each team batting twice.
- One Day Internationals (ODIs): Each team faces a maximum of 50 overs.
- Twenty20 (T20): A fast-paced format where each team bats for 20 overs.
- Scoring Runs: Runs are scored when batsmen hit the ball and run between two sets of wickets or by hitting the ball to the boundary (4 runs if it rolls to the boundary, 6 runs if it clears the boundary).
- Bowling and Wickets: The bowling team aims to dismiss the batsmen, which can happen through various methods such as being bowled, caught, leg before wicket (LBW), and run out.
- Innings: Each team has a turn to bat (an innings). The team with the most runs at the end of the match wins.
