place in front OF the wicket, which IS
a three legged affair p inches hlgn,
with a small bit OF wood called bail
on toD. The bowler winds up, some
thing like a baseball pitcher. anQ
sends a small leather covered ball
toward the wicket He is not per
mitted 10 throw directly at the wick
ct. however, but the ball must hit the
ground in front and get the wicket
on the bounce, the object OF the
bowler being 10 hit the legs OF the
wicket and displace the bail The
batsman's purpose is to swat the bail
in any manner that viii protect the
wicket The batter makes a score by
chasing himself 10 another wicket So
feet distant and touching a chalk line
with his club before the ball is fielded
in. But the batter doesn't have 10 run
until he has made a hit that suits him.
The longest hit that can be made
counts four ruus. and is equivalent 20
a homer. A real good batter may
score 100 runs or more during the
progress Of one match, which makes
Cobb and Ruth and the rest OF them
look like 30 centsg Cricket is almost
a batter's game, and he has
all the best OF it. The poor bowler, OF
pitcher. has 10 toll like Trojan
against tremendous odds. and he gets
little applause for his pains.
