cricket T20sport highlights

Cricket is a sport that originated in England and is played with a bat and a ball between two teams of eleven players each. The game is played on a circular or oval-shaped field with a rectangular 22-yard-long pitch in the center.

The objective of the game is for one team to score more runs than the other team while the other team tries to restrict them from doing so by getting the batsmen out. A run is scored when the batsman hits the ball with the bat and runs to the opposite end of the pitch.

The team that is bowling tries to get the batsman out in various ways such as catching the ball hit by the batsman, hitting the stumps behind the batsman with the ball, or getting the batsman to hit the ball in the air and catching it before it lands.

Cricket matches can be played in different formats, such as Test cricket, One-Day Internationals (ODIs), and Twenty20 (T20) cricket. Test cricket is played over five days, while ODIs are played over a single day with each team batting and bowling for 50 overs. T20 cricket is the shortest format of the game, where each team gets to bat and bowl for 20 overs.
