Beach cricket is an amazing format of cricket; I saw it today in the morning and could not resist myself from writing about it. This new format of game follows the guidelines of traditional cricket, but has its own set of innovations into it which is quite refreshing. This form of cricket is played on the beach, with 7 players in each team, and with 8 overs for each team to bowl. The catchiest feature of this kind of the game is that if a catch is taken with one hand 7 runs are deducted from the total score; and if a batsman is out 5 runs are deducted from the score. And each team can challenge the umpire’s decision once during the match. Moreover each pair of batsman can play only 2 overs each, and the last 2 overs will be played by batsman decided by the captain.
It is something different and interesting and fun to watch with beach by the side and excellent atmosphere around with cool breeze. What’s your opinion friend?
