Cricket is a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams of 11 players on a grass field with a 22-yard pitch at each end. A bowler from one team tries to get a batsman from the opposing team out by bowling the ball at the wicket, while the batsman defends the wicket and scores runs by running between the wickets. The team with the most runs at the end wins. Cricket originated in England and is popular in Commonwealth countries like India, Pakistan, and the Caribbean. It is also a major sport in places like Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and Zimbabwe.
