which country are you in ?
it was invented by the poms, played by them, aus, nz, india, west indies, south africa, pakistan, and other countries that i can't think of ..
briefly, there is a pitch, made of .. whatever material, put in the ground.
there are two sets of three wooden upright posts, known as stumps, with two short crossbar pieces.
the ball is small, and red, or white, or even pink which is used for night tests.
there are two batsmen who bat first, out of a total of 11.
only ten can get out.
one player is "not out".
the ball is bowled onto the pitch, overarm.
can be bowled at up to 160miles an hour; fast!
the batsman "has to" hit the ball for runs, otherwise, he (or she) gets out.
the ball can hit the stumps, or can be caught by a fielder.
anyone can score up to 400 runs, which is the record by ........ brian lara ?
teams can declare, for the other team to then chase a score, and perhaps score more runs.
there is a total of 4 innings, 2 per team.
there is also odi's being one day internationals.
test uniforms are white.
odi's are national colours.
odis are 50 overs.
t20, are 20 overs only.
players raise bat at 50 runs .. celebrate for 100 runs, raise again for 150, celebrate for 200.
overs are 6 deliveries, unless a no ball is called.
there is also a run rate, so 4 runs per over, which can mean a team can score about 450 runs in an innings.
not every ball has to be hit for runs.
when an over has no runs scored, its called a "maiden".
some pitches are rather slow.
some are quick.
tests last 5 days, depending on who is playing, and where.
weather can also shorten or cancel a test match.
do a google search of images.

I am from USA. Sounds a little bit like Baseball. You know a lot more about Cricket than I know about Baseball
. Sounds like it would be fascinating to watch! Have you ever played Cricket?

Yeah I have played but nowhere close to professional.
There is a test match between Aus and India in Brisbane.
It could be on paytv.
or go to cricket Australia and have a look.
It's different to baseball.
