What do you mean by follow-on in cricket?

Follow-on in cricket comes into effect in Test matches as well as first-class matches. To understand, take an example. Suppose Team A bats first and scores 450 runs. Now, Team B comes into bat and they are bowled out for 200 runs. Implies, Team A leads Team B by 250 runs or Team B trails Team A by 250 runs. Here, Team A could enforce the follow-on and forcing the Team B to bat once again instead of Team A batting and hence gaining advantage. Follow-on can be enforced when team batting first has a first innings lead of 200 runs or more over the team batting second.


Did any cricket team lose the test match after giving the follow on to opponent team?

Yes


Can team bat again without follow on in test cricket?

Let us clarify what the follow on implies.When a team is forced to follow on due to trailing by at least 200 runs, they are required to bat again immediately after their first innings instead of waiting for the other team to bat.A team cannot voluntarily follow on. It is the decision of the captain of the team batting first and only if they lead by at least 200 runs. If the team batting second finishes trailing by less than 200 runs (or is level or leading at this point), play must proceed in the traditional manner.As long as the team batting third matches or exceeds the total runs of the team batting second, there will be a fourth innings and the team batting second will bat again without a follow-on.
