text: One run (known as a "single") is scored when a batsman (known as the "striker") has hit the ball with the bat, or with a gloved hand holding the bat, and directed it away from the fielders so that both the striker and the non-striker are able to run the length of the pitch (22 yards), crossing each other and arriving safely at the other end of the pitch, before the fielders can retrieve the ball and hit the wicket.
