@ rajendra, a very good summary
| rajendra82 said: Played with bat and ball like baseball, but bowlers (pitchers) take a running start and use an overhand motion rather than a throwing motion. The ball is usually bounced to the batsman. There is no foul territory and once the ball is hit into play the batsman does not have to run, he choses when it's safe to do so. The field is circular (or oval) and a ball reaching the edge on the bounce (like a ground rule double) scores four runs while one hit there on the fly (like a home run) scores six. The batting team always sends two players to start an inning, and they will keep scoring runs until one of them is out, then another member from the same team will replace him/her. Outs are made in somewhat similar ways to baseball (with bowled sort of equivalent to a strikeout. run out equivalent to being tagged or forced out, caught requires no explanation except fielder don't ear gloves). There are a few more ways to make an out like handling the balll, hit wicket, and leg before wicket. Since there are 11 players on each team 10 outs usually make an inning. There are limited over matches where an innning is done even if 10 outs are not made (an over is six pitches (balls in cricket lingo) by a single bowler, at which point a different bowler should bowl six more) at any give time therefore there are at least two active bowlers and exactly two active batsmen). The team that scores the most runs within the allotted number of innings will win. Similar to baseball in several ways except for the pacing, tactics, and intricaies. Since the ball is bounced there are many more different types of deliveries than just fastball, slider, cutter, curve, and splitter. Since there is no foul groud, a batsman can chose to deflect rather than crush the ball to put it into play. Since a batsman does not have to run after putting the ball in play, there can be defensive and offensive mided strokes depending on the situation. A very different game, and a very interesting one. |
to much info and ...........AHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHHHHHHH

This is a non issue really. You don't have to keep both feet on the board at all times. In Wii Fit, many excercises require you to take steps off of the board, like lunges for example. It still registers the weight distributed to the foot that remains on the board.
Indeed, a cricket game that utilises the balance board may provide a useful instructional tool to teach players how to perform cricket shots correctly in a real life situation, much like how Wii Fit teaches users how to perform excercises in a correct manner.
How do you bowl on the balance board? Do you like stand in place and do the arm movements?
I don't think the balance board is neccesary for bowling. That would hamper twoplayer, because then you'd need 2 balance boards when one player bats and the other bowls.

By the way, "to much info" means nothing.
