Book REVISED QUESTION BANK ON THE LAWS OF CRICKET

Download or read book REVISED QUESTION BANK ON THE LAWS OF CRICKET written by M. R. Singh and published by M. R. Singh. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This QUESTION BANK is based on the Laws of Cricket 2017 Code (3rd edition 2022). As the name, QUESTION BANK, suggests, this book is a compilation of questions – 1001+ practical game-situations in Cricket, which are designed to test the knowledge of the serious student of the game. The QUESTION BANK is divided into convenient sections. The questions are all multiple-answer questions, and are aimed at highlighting some of the little-known nuances of the Laws. Answers for the questions, along with explanations wherever necessary, are provided at the end, in a separate section. In addition, I have added four Appendices as follows because I thought these might help the practical Umpire: Appendix Z1 – Examples of Calculation of Minimum Overs (Law 12) Appendix Z2 – Examples of working of Penalty Time (Law 24) Appendix Z3 – Graphics that explain what is a ‘Batter’s Ground’ (Law 30) Appendix Z4 – Graphics that explain the various possible situations of a Batter with a Runner’ (Law 25) The QUESTION BANK is, primarily, aimed at the aspiring Umpire who might be preparing for some umpiring qualification test at some level. Besides, I believe that the knowledge of an Umpire is best tested by evaluating how he applies his learning to the many varied situations the game can throw up. That is why I have chosen to put before the student, game situations to which he can apply the knowledge he might, already, have acquired. I think, however, this book can be of immense use to just about anyone associated with the game. If you are a player, coach, match referee, sports journalist, commentator, and, even, a spectator, you will find this book to be of use when faced with a peculiar game-situation. Even as I pen this, the 3rd Test match of the England-India series is on, and questions have arisen about the guard position of Indian player, Rishab Pant. I found that senior and experienced commentators did not know if the Umpire was at all empowered by the Laws to check the erring Striker. In the same game, a question arose about Rishab Pant, again, taping the last two fingers of his wicket-keeping gloves. The Umpires had ruled that it was illegal and had asked him to remove the tape. Many such situations arise in the game, the answers to which are not always clear. It has been my experience that players, their Captains, match referees and commentators do not really know some of the more intricate laws. In fact, I have seen some who don’t know even some of the simplest of the Laws! This book will answer all the questions they can possibly think of, and did not know whom to ask. I have no doubt that a better understanding of the Laws can make one a better player and a better coach. In my view, every batch of cricket trainees should undergo a session or two on the Laws of Cricket where the focus can be on the laws most concerning them. They need not be put through the whole lot. Besides, every player will hang up his boots one day. The knowledge acquired through this book might kindle some interest and might lay the foundations of an umpiring career ahead. I hope this book is found to be of use. mrsingh 28.08.2021 Preface to the REVISED edition After the publication of the first Question Bank in 2022, I soon realised that there were quite a few small but embarrassing errors. In a book of this kind, on which a lot of newbie umpires relied, this was most unacceptable and, also, damaging to my reputation and credibility. Most of the errors were minor in nature, like pointing to a wrong answer option or merely typos. But, to my everlasting regret, a few were not. I owe my buyers an apology on this account. In this edition, I have, hopefully, managed to eliminate all these errors and make this a book that readers can rely upon. I have, also, added a few more questions based on recent events. And I wish my student umpires good luck in their endeavors in mastering the Laws of Cricket. M.R. Singh 1. 11. 2023

Download or read book Cricket Trivia Quiz written by Roger Wilthrop and published by . This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ultimate Test (pun intended) of your Cricketing KnowledgeThere is something about the mixture of craftsmanship and power that makes cricket suitable for every audience. If you have great patience and like the classic variant, Test Matches are for you. If you have been a fan for a decade or so, you probably like One Day Internationals. If you're a new fan, you might have discovered the sport through Twenty20 matches, probably through the Indian Premier League or another league similar to the IPL.From Don Bradman to Sachin Tendulkar, and from Dennis Lillee to Muttiah Muralitharan, great batsmen and bowlers have taken the sport of cricket to new heights over the decades. With the game expanding to dozens of new countries, and with women's cricket going from strength to strength, it is surely only a matter of time before the world's Commonwealth Game makes its appearance in the Olympics.This book contains a large number of trivia puzzles and clues that will lead you to the names of some of the best cricket batsmen, bowlers, and fielders of all time. I have tried to include as many different players as possible - from those who played mostly Tests to those who only played ODIs, from obscure players to household names, and from all-rounders to specialists in their field. There are famous names, controversial names, popular names - a great mix of people who will help you relive the glory days of cricket in your mind.The book can be read in many different ways. If you want, you can go through the questions and puzzles by yourself, and test your skill against the clock - the answers are all provided, and multiple hints to the identity of each player are given. In addition, you can also play with one or more friends - the structure of the book is ideally suited to cooperative attempts. Just like in the sport of cricket itself, teamwork makes everything better and easier! You can also use it as the basis for a cricket based trivia competition, since a contest makes everything a little more interesting.The knowledge contained in this book will make sure that your brain is enriched after even a casual reading. It will challenge your memory and your trivia store, and test those to the limits - only the very best can help for a century score. At the same time, it will also give your mind a thorough workout, as you solve the clues to the name of each player in isolation, your pattern recognition skills can help compensate for the lack of knowledge of a particular player.The scoring for the puzzle games in this cricket book can be done in many different ways. You can give yourself two runs for every Format 1 question you get right without the hints, and a boundary for every Format 2 (scramble) question that you get correct without the aid of hints. If you need to use the hints on the nationality and debut year of the cricketer in question, your points reduce by half. At the end of each set of six chapters, you can total your score and see if you were able to get to a half century or a century. The number of points up for grabs increases dramatically in the last few chapters: legendary trivia cricket players might even be able to score a double or a triple century towards the end. Are you one of them?There is something about nail biting last over finishes to an ODI or T20 World Cup match or a sublime triple century composed over multiple innings of a crucial Test Match that cannot be replicated easily in any other sport. This book is a celebration of the players who toiled for decades so that they could bring us those moments of joy, and elevate our viewing experience to something unforgettable. Thank you, cricketers!I am sure that you will have a great time with this book. All the very best!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ICC Cricket World Cup is one of the top three sport carnivals in the World. First edition of the tournament took place in 1975 in England. Starting from England, tournament traveled to Indian sub-continent and then to southern hemisphere in Australia & New Zealand, Africa and then to Caribbean as well. The tournament has thus been hosted in every part of the globe. So far there have been ten editions of this tournament and eleventh is slated for early next year in Australia and New Zealand. Tournament has evolved since its inception in 1975. It started off with players wearing traditional white cloths and matches with 60 overs for each side. There were four teams in each of the two groups. During 1975 and 1979, each team played other team in the group only once. However in 1983 World Cup, team in same group played each other twice. After first three tournaments in England, tournament moved out to Indian sub-continent in 1987 and innings size was also reduced to 50 Overs. 1992 was a defining moment for the cup as first time colored clothing, white ball and day-night matches were introduced. South Africa also played first time during 1992 edition after South Africa came out of international boycott, once miserable era of apartheid was over. In 1999, 2003 and 2007, there were three stages in the tournament with group stage, super six/eight and then knockout. In 1996 & 2011, there were only two stages but knock out match started from quarter-final (group of eight) thus winner had to play and win three knock-out matches. During this journey of four decades, the tournament has come across numerous amazing records, created by hundreds of players and teams, who participated in various editions of Cricket World Cup. Greatest cricketers of all time like, Clive Llyod, Viv Richards, Kapil Dev, Allan Border, Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting, Wasim Akram, Shane Warne and many more allured the tournament with their electrifying performances in the field. This Book provides snapshot of all the editions of the tournament clubbed with numerous facts & records. It is not a mere record book; it gives reader a deep insight in history of Cup with extremely interesting trivia, which would definitely leave Cricket lovers enthralled.
