You probably won't have played cricket before if you're not from the UK, Australia, the Caribbean, the Netherlands, India, Sri Lanka, New Zealand, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Afghanistan, Canada, The UAE, South Africa, or Bangladesh, so here is a quick summary of the rules:
The aim of cricket is simple - score more than the opposition.
Two teams, both with 11 players, take it in turns to bat and bowl.
When one team is batting, they try and score as many runs as they can by hitting the ball around an oval field. They get four runs for hitting the ball across the boundary but 6 if it doesn't bounce before crossing the boundary rope.
The other team must get them out by bowling the ball overarm at the stumps, which are at either end of a 22-yard area called a wicket.
The bowling team can get the batsmen out by hitting the stumps, catching the ball, and a few other ways.
