- topgrain2 3mo agoI learned the rules to and terminology of (American) football by playing football video games (mostly nfl2k1 on the Dreamcast). Similar story for ice hockey. What’s the video game to play to understand cricket?
- senthil_rajasek 3mo agoAahh video games that's clever. I apologize, I am not a video game person. Hopefully someone here knows a good cricket video game. Best.
- bruce511 3mo agoCricket 26. Not sure you can learn cricket from that, but it may help solidify the concepts.
- Smoosh 3mo agoLet’s be clear here. If the ball is bowled and strikes the stumps and dislodges a bail, that is “bowled out”. If the batsman contacts the ball but it still hits the stumps and dislodges a bail,that is “played on“. If the batsman in playing the ball dislodges a bail, that is “hit wicket”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hit_wicket https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hit_wicket
