Both Rugby and Cricket are sports identified with play in England, although both are also played around the world in former English colonies and Dominions.
Cricket is a game developed, but not perfected, in England. The Brits exported the game to the various Colonies and outposts of Empire, whereafter, they were usually soundly thrashed in most international contests of any importance. Cricket is played in England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, West Indies, India, Pakistan and many of the other Commonwealth countries.
There are usually 3 umpires in cricket
Well there are 6 balls in a over in cricket, and each ODI (One Day International) consists of 50 overs a team. While Twenty20 obviously has 20 overs.
The Duckworth-Lewis table (named for the English statisticians who invented it) is designed to calculate the final scores of one-innings cricket (usually One Day International or Twenty20) matches in which the chasing team (the one batting second) loses its opportunity to bat on an equal footing with the first team, usually on account of bad weather. It attempts to extrapolate the likely outcome based on how the chasing team actually performed at the time.
A cricket has a max of 5 years and usually 2-3 years.
Sky Sports usually announces the final cricket scores for the day as they happen. Their live scoring is a must have for avid cricket supporters and even casual fans.

A set of six balls bowled in cricket - is called an 'over'.
11: Bowled; Caught; Stumped; Run out; Lbw; Hit wicket; Handled the ball; Obstructing the field; Timed out; Hit the ball twice,retired out. "Caught behind" and "Caught & bowled" are classified as just 'Caught'.'Handled the ball' can be disregarded if the batsman is asked to pick up the ball by a fielder, usually the wicketkeeper.'Timed out' occurs when one batsman is not ready for play and on the pitch within two minutes of the previous batsman being out (or three minutes if he is to be the nonstriker).'Hit the ball twice' can be disregarded if the second hit was to prevent the ball being 'played on' (hitting the stumps after being played a first time).If any batsman leaves the field of play without the Umpire's consent for any reason other than injury or incapacity, he may resume the innings only with the consent of the opposing captain. If he fails to resume his innings, he is recorded as being Retired - out. For the purposes of calculating a batting average, retired out is considered a dismissal.
