You have two sides, one out in the field and one in.
Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out.
When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in.
There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game

I get that but what about things like a side "declaring" and just what is an "over" etc.

Declaring is when the side in has decided they have had enough of being in and want to be out.
Over is 6 balls, once they have bowled 6 balls at the team in, then its over. They turn round and start again from the other end.... Rolling Eyes


TBH. Cricket is best enjoyed Embarassed without knowing what is going on. Very much like tennis. Karma

The best bit about cricket is the bits between the cricket, on the radio.

Because they feel that they are sufficiently ahead that they have enough time to bowl out the opposing team, and thus win the game.

They could just keep batting and banging the runs but eventually the 5 days will be up and the game will end in a draw.

How di they know the other team wont match or better their runs?

How would keeping batting end up as a draw?

They don't know that the other team won't beat their scire. The whole point is to try and bowl them out before they do....

A draw in cricket means that nobody won. You have to have the highest score and your opponents have to have completed their innings (ie finished batting).

So if the opposing teams remaining players hold out against the bowlers and score mega runs then declaring may have been a mustake?

Yes. it's a calculated risk taken because they would rather risk losing than draw.

How is a draw worse than losing?

It isn't but in order to win you have to make sure you don't draw.

In football, do they put all their players in defence so its hard to lose but also hard to win (ie playing for a draw?)

No, of course they don't, they play a riskier strategy in the hopes of winning. I don't see why this is difficult to grasp?
