Archery Cricket
(Unofficial Round)
(The rules for this game were first put together by Mr. Steve Dartell, a past member of the Grange Company of Target Archers Club.)
An archery game played by two teams, each shooting at their own target.
One team is the 'Batters', the other team is the 'Bowlers'.
1. Two top shooters to be Team Captains.
2. Team Captains to select team members.
3. 'Bowlers' team to shoot a distance of 20 metres at an 80cm diameter target face.
'Batters' team to shoot a distance of 20 metres at an 122cm diameter target face.
4. Wickets are taken by the 'Bowlers' shooting an arrow into each scoring zone on the target face, starting with the 1 zone, then 2 zone, then 3 zone and so on until an arrow is shot into the 10 zone. Each zone must be shot consecutively. Each archer will shoot their 6 arrows to complete an 'over'. Then the next archer will take their turn.
When an arrow hits the 10 zone, then the 'Batters' must stop shooting immediately and they lose one wicket.
5. Runs are scored by the 'Batters' shooting only in the 1 to 6 zone on the target face.
Each archer will shoot their 6 arrows to complete an 'over'. Then the next archer will take their turn
6. A 'Batter' will be out and the batting team will lose a wicket if their arrow :
Misses the target face
Hits the red zone on the target face
Hits the gold zone on the target face
9. The two teams will shoot at the same time.
10. Arrows are collected when a wicket falls or after all arrows are shot.
'Batting' will stop immediately at the fall of the last wicket.
11. Team members are to remain in their allotted order to ensure everyone gets a turn.
12. At the fall of the last wicket, the 'Batting' team will add their scores to make up the number of 'runs' for the 'innings'. The teams will then swap targets for the 'second innings'.
The 'Batting' and 'Bowling' teams swap over. The 'Batting' team will take their turn as 'Bowlers', and the 'Bowling' team will take their turn at 'Batting'.
The completion of the 'second innings' completes one game of cricket.
The team with the highest score, most 'runs', wins.
Speed and accuracy is a factor for both teams. The 'Batting' team is trying to score 'runs' as quickly as possible, while the 'Bowling' team is trying to get wickets just as quick.

cricket, my dear, it is a game played on a field between 2 teams of eleven men one side bats with the intention to hit the ball far enough away from the stumbs that they can run the 22 yards to the other set, the other team want to get the batsmen out, when all the bats men are out they swap sides the team with the best runs to wickets ratio wins
its very simple, read the law

I think that (going back to original topic) those who claim that it is the most easy and pointless round should shoot one, and be punished if they do not achieve the perfect score.
