How many times can a bowler bowl in cricket?

It depends on the variant of cricket being played.There is generally no limit to a bowler in First-class cricket since is there is no hard-set limit to the number of overs that will be bowled in a given innings.For limited-overs matches, the general rule of thumb is that no one bowler can bowl more than 20% of the given overs in an innings. In a One Day International (ODI) match, for example, a bowler can bowl a maximum of 10 overs (less if a game is shortened by weather). Accordingly, Twenty20 limits a bowler to four overs.There is, however, one important rule for a bowler that can cut short his innings. A bowler is not supposed to run through the pitch's protected zone (generally the zone directly between the wickets) while following-through on his delivery. If caught doing so three times, he is prohibited from bowling for the rest of the innings.

What's the difference between baseball and cricket?

Cricket and Baseball are two games that appear similar in many ways but bear a lot of differences between them when it comes to their game play, rules, field and the like. Although balls used in cricket and baseball look alike, the cricket ball is heavier than the base ball. Cricket is played for two innings each side whereas baseball players play several innings. The bat used in the game of baseball is round and it breaks often. On the other hand the bat used in the game of cricket is flat and strong and does not break often. It is true some of the well-made cricket bats last for decades. The three major types of players in the game of baseball are batter, pitcher and the catcher. On the other hand the three important types of players in the game of cricket are the batsman, the bowler and the wicket-keeper. The various positions taken by the players in the game of baseball are self explanatory. On the other hand the various positions taken by the players in the game of cricket are characterized by various names such as mid-off, mid-on, fine leg, deep fine leg, long leg, mid wicket, silly mid on, silly mid off, deep mid wicket, square leg, point, deep square leg, gully slip, leg slip, cover, extra cover, long on and long off. The pitcher should not drop the ball or bounce the ball in front of the batter in the game of baseball. On the other hand the bowler has to bounce the ball in front of the batsman in the game of cricket. A run is completed by the batsman in the game of cricket to increase the score of his team. On the contrary the term run in baseball means 'achievement'. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cricket Description--- Indian guy Baseball Description--- American Friend - state player

What effects will the recent Pakistan cricket scandal likely to have on the game?

Well it will have a mental affect on all the players because it has put cricket under scrutiny. And Mohammad amir broke the record for the youngest bowler to get 100 wickets in test matches. But he broke the record by more than 1 yr so he could've gone up to break many many more. So if they are proven guilty Cricket has lost a great great bowler. Hope this Helps.
