cricket

El críquet se juega principalmente en Gran Bretaña y los países de la Commonwealth. Se juega en un campo de césped, entre dos equipos de once jugadores cada uno. Se emplean bates (bats) y una pelota de cuero. Cada equipo batea en una entrada (innings) para marcar carreras (runs). Los jugadores del equipo contrario (bowlers) lanzan (bowl) la pelota al bateador y fildean (field), es decir interceptan la pelota, con el objetivo, si lo logran, de dejar al bateador fuera del juego (out) o que obtenga el menor número de carreras posibles. Hay dos bateadores (batsmen) a la vez en el campo, cada uno defendiendo un wicket, que son de tres palos verticales (stumps) que sostienen a su vez dos palos cortos (bails). Los wickets se encuentran uno frente al otro y están separados por una distancia de 22 yardas (20, 1 mts. aproximadamente). Las carreras se marcan cuando los bateadores corren de un wicket a otro.

Commonwealth

La Commonwealth o Comunidad Británica de Naciones, creada en 1931, es una asociación de estados independientes, en su mayoría ex colonias británicas, más algunas dependencias británicas, tales como Las Bermudas, Las Islas Malvinas y Gibraltar. Los miembros trabajan juntos para lograr ciertos fines como la paz mundial, fomento del comercio y la defensa de la democracia. Cada dos años se celebra una reunión de todos los jefes de gobierno de la Comunidad (the Commonwealth Conference), para debatir asuntos de carácter político y económico. Cada cuatro años se celebran los Commonwealth Games, competencia deportiva en el que uno de los miembros es el anfitrión.
