cricket?

is that the game where they hit the ball threw the upsidedown U's?
No, that's crouchet. Cricket is where somebody throws a ball at a guy with a bat who is standing in front of some stumps, if the guy hits the ball he has to run and get back to his stumps before somebody on the other team gets the ball back to his wickets. If the ball hits the wickets or somebody cathcs the ball straight after it has been hit, the batter is out. If any of this sounds familiar, bear in mind that cricket was invented long before baseball.
