W: Hello, Mark. Have you ever played cricket?
M: No, never. Have you, Joe?
W: No, but I once watched a game at the Cricket Club.
M: Did you enjoy it?
W: No, not much, though everybody else seemed to. I found it very slow. Nothing much seemed to happen. Perhaps that was because I didn’t really understand what was going on.
M: It’s a bit like baseball, isn’t it?
W: Well, not really, In baseball there is only one man with a hat but in cricket there are two.
M: Both at the same time?
W: No. They take turns. They each stand at one end of the pitch in front of some sticks called "stumps" or the "wicket’’. A member of the other team, the "bowler", threws the ball at the stumps. The batsman tries to protect the wicket and hit the ball as far as he can.
M: What happens when he hits the ball?
W: The batsmen run to change positions. That’s called a "run". They do it as many times as they can. M: What does the other team do?
W: One of them runs after the ball and throws it at the wicket. If he hits it while the bats-men are still running, one of them is out.
M: That sounds a little like baseball.
W: Not really. I think baseball is more exciting.
M: Yes, so do I.
