Cricket is a fantastic game that is fun to play, quick to learn, and is popular in many countries around the world. Originally created in England, cricket has many similarities to American baseball, chiefly that it is a game where points are scored by a batter (batsman/batsperson in cricket lingo) hitting a ball thrown by a pitcher (bowler in cricket). The goal of the batsperson is to score as many points for their team as possible. The goal of the bowler and their teammates is to get the batsperson out.
