Cricket Game : Some Rules and Regulations

Today I am here for write about my favorite game, and it’s cricket. Without further I do let’s begin.

The game of cricket was born in England. It is also called the game of the king. Clean clothes, daytime games, launch, afternoon tea and breakfast, polite behavior in the rules and regulations are all considered to be an elite game. Due to the huge popularity of the game of cricket, there was a need for an international committee to look into the rules and regulations, publicity, management, and so on.

In 1909, the international cricket council (ICC) was formed with representatives from the test playing nations of England, New Zealand, Pakistan, India, Australia, South Africa, West Indies. The committee has the omnipotence to make any decision on cricket. After these seven countries, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe and Bangladesh got the status of test match. Then at the last two countries who have got the test statues they are Ireland and Afghanistan.

Now I would like to talk about the rules and law of cricket. There are 42 rules of cricket. I will outline the important rules in the below.

Pitch: the length of pitch is 22 yards and the width is 10 feet. There are three stumps on each end of the pitch. The height of the stumps is 28 inches. The width of the three stumps is 9 inches. Two bells are placed on the head of the stump. The height of the stump with the belt is twenty eight and half inches.

Field: The field is an important part of the game in cricket. In international games playing field is made with a redius of 60 to 75 yards from the middle of the pitch.
