Cricket

There are two teams.
One team bats and one team fields.
There is a batter, wicket keeper and a bowler.
The batter has to try and hit the ball as far as possible.
The game can be played with three people or more.
The batter has to make runs to each wicket as many times as possible before the fielders get the ball to the wickets and it hits the wickets.
AIM: To have the most runs before all your batters are gone.

How to play if four and more players:

Separate people to make teams in half if 6 or more players
Choose a fielding team and a batting team
Have two wickets, a cricket ball and a cricket bat
One person behind each wicket (from fielding team)
One person chosen as bowler (This person throws the ball)
Bowler stands to one side of any wicket
If they throw the ball and it touches the wickets, the batter is out and the next batter comes up.
The ball has to bounce first
You can throw over arm or under arm
You cannot touch the wickets with your bat
