patgundIn Cricket, a Batsman may be dismissed by:
Appeal to the umpire
Wicket is down, (hit by the ball, the batsman, or the hand in which a fielder is holding the ball)
Batsman out of ground
The batsman may also be dismissed by being bowled, timed out, caught, handling the ball, hit the ball twice, hit the wicket, leg before wicket, obstructing the field, run out, or stumped.
A team has 11 players. A player may be a specialist batsman or bowler, and teams usually have a specialist wicket-keeper as well. A player that is good at both batting and bowling is an all-rounder, and can be very rare.
There will also be two on-field umpires. the field umpire, and the square-leg umpire.
The field is a large circular or oval grassy area, between 450 and 500 feet in diameter. Most of the action is on the pitch, a rectangular clay strip 10x66 feet, with the wickets on each end, Lines drawn or painted on the pitch are known as creases. Creases are used to determine the dismissals of batsmen and to determine whether a delivery is legal.

1 red pepper (cut into 1 1/2 inch chunks)
1 small yellow onion (cut into 8 wedges)
Directions:
Mix all ingredients for the marinate in a non-reactive baking dish. Add the Orthoptera, cover, and marinate overnight. When ready to cook, remove the insects from the marinade. Pat them dry, for ease of handling. Assemble each kabob, alternately skewing the insects, tomatoes, and onion wedges to create a visually interesting lineup. Cook the kabobs two or three inches above the fire, turning them every 2 or 3 minutes and basting them with additional olive oil as required. The exact cooking time will vary, depending on the kind of grill and types of insects used. Cook no longer than 8-9 minutes.
