Players play as batting side or bowling side on a game board that resembles a cricket field. The aim of the batting side is to score as many runs as possible before being bowled out, while the aim of the bowling side is to get the batsmen out for the lowest possible score. To bowl, the bowling side throws two dice. The total of the two dice decides between which two lines to the boundary the batsman will hit the ball. After the bowler has bowled each ball and determined the direction of the batsman's shot, the batsman throws one dice. This dice determines how hard the batsman has hit the ball between the two lines to the boundary determined by the bowler. Components: 40 play cards; one pad of scoresheets; fourteen tokens (ten white, one red, one blue and two black) and a red Coca-Cola pencil.
