The document discusses the history and rules of cricket. It notes that the first Cricket World Cup was held in England in 1975 as a series of one-day matches. The 1987 World Cup was the first held partially outside of England. Cricket involves two teams of 11 players using a bat and ball on a pitch with wickets at each end, with the aim of scoring the most runs through batting innings while bowling to dismiss the opposing team's batsmen.
The sport of cricket has a known history beginning in the late 16th century. Having originated in south-east England, it became an established sport in the country in the 18th century and developed globally in the 19th and 20th centuries. International matches have been played since the 19th-century and formal Test cricket matches are considered to date from 1877.

The sport of cricket has a known history, beginning in the 16th century. The game originated in England, among shepherds using their crooks as bats, and the earliest wickets may well have been narrow sheep pens. The earliest men’s games that were officially recorded (from law court records) were played in southeast England in the 1550s. Initially a single wicket was used, as it still is in ancient games like stoolball that continue to be played in southern England.
A cricket match is contested by two teams, usually of eleven players each[4] and is played on a grass field in the centre of which is a flat strip of ground 22 yards (20 m) long called a pitch. A wicket, usually made of wood, is placed at each end of the pitch and used as a target

Cricket is a world famous game. The ICC (International Cricket Council) is the world’s
governing organization for cricket. The ICC supervises and administers the game on
behalf of its 108 members, and collaborates with them to promote the sport. It was
brought to North America via the English colonies as early as the 17th century, and it
spread to other regions of the world in the 18th century. Colonists introduced it to the
West Indies, while the British introduced it to India.
fact about Starting 3 Full members of ICC:-
Australia :- In March 1892, representatives from the state associations of New South
Wales, South Australia, and Victoria formed the Australasian Cricket Council, which
became the first central administrative organization for cricket in Australia.
Seven years later, the Council was abolished, and the Australian Board of Control for
International Cricket was founded in 1905. Its inaugural meeting was attended by two
members from New South Wales and two representatives from Victoria. Later that year,
a delegate from Queensland attended its second conference, and its constitution was
revised in 1906 to legally allow for one representation from Queensland and three
representatives each from New South Wales, South
Tasmania was allowed one delegate beginning in 1907, while Western Australian
participation began in 1913. The only other modifications to the number of delegates
granted by the states occurred in 1914 and 1974, when Queensland and Western
Australia boosted their participation to two each.
In 1973, the body was renamed the Australian Cricket Board, and on July 1, 2003, it
became Cricket Australia.
England :- The game of cricket’s beginnings are lost in the mists of antiquity. In the
household records of Edward I in 1300, there is a reference to a game similar to cricket
being played in Kent.
The English game appears to have started in the sheep-rearing area of the South East,
where the short grass of the downland pastures allowed for the bowling of a ball of wool
or rags towards a target. The wicket-gate of the sheep pasture was generally the target,
which was defended with a bat shaped like a shepherd’s crooked staff.
The game was extremely popular as a rough agricultural amusement by the 17th
century, but the leisure classes took up the activity in the next century, notably in
Sussex, Kent, and London. In 1730, an organised match was conducted at the Artillery
Grounds in Finsbury, London. Cricket was played at every level of society by the middle
of the 18th century, from village greens to opulent estates. The game, however, lacked
a consistent set of rules.
In the 1760s, Hambledon, Hampshire, saw the formation of the earliest and most
prominent cricket club in the country. The club was supported by affluent benefactors,
but the players were mostly local traders and farmers. The Hambledon club devised
batting and bowling skills that are still used today, and Hambledon is known as the
“Birthplace Cricket” in history book

2. history
In 1975 the first Cricket World Cup was
contested in England as a series of one-day
matches of 60 overs per side. It was held
outside England, in India and Pakistan, for the
first time in 1987. The 1987 contest also saw
the number of overs per side reduced to 50.
In 2007 Australia became the first team to win
three consecutive World Cup tournaments.
3. cricket
England’s national summer sport, which is now played throughout
the world, particularly in Australia, India, Pakistan, the West Indies,
and the British Isles.
Cricket is played with a bat and ball and involves two competing
sides (teams) of 11 players. The field is oval with a rectangular area
in the middle, known as the pitch, that is 22 yards (20.12 meters) by
10 feet (3.04 meters) wide. Two sets of three sticks, called wickets,
are set in the ground at each end of the pitch. Across the top of each
wicket lie horizontal pieces called bails. The sides take turns
at batting and bowling (pitching); each turn is called an “innings”
(always plural).
4. Sides have one or two innings each,
depending on the prearranged duration of the
match, the object being to score the most
runs. The bowlers, delivering the ball with a
straight arm, try to break (hit) the wicket with
the ball so that the bails fall. This is one of
several ways that the batsman is dismissed,
or put out. A bowler delivers six balls at one
wicket (thus completing an “over”), then a
different player from his side bowls six balls
to the opposite wicket. The batting side
defends its wicket.
