Please sponsor my team ‘s cricket match to help raise money for St Georges Hospital Nuero ITU in memory of my daddy who was epic!We are going to play a match of continuous diamond cricket on the 9th December at Amesbury School for two hours (normal innings length is ten minutes).
Diamond Cricket
This is a great game that combines all the skills of cricket and requires tactical thinking.
The first four batters go to a set of stumps each – always ready to hit the ball. The bowler bowls the ball at any set of stumps - batters can run if they hit or miss the ball. All four batters run at the same time – in an anti-clockwise direction – with no overtaking. One run is scored for each rotation (i.e. the whole way round is 4 runs). As soon as the bowler receives the ball back s/he can bowl it again so the batters always need to be ready.
When a batter is out, the next batter comes in to replace them. The innings can either be played until all the batters are ‘out’, or can be time-based (i.e. 10 minutes per innings), which means that batters may have a chance to bat again. Batting and fielding teams swap when the innings is concluded.
