Cricket Card Game (1979)

K Cricket consists of 50 cards: 17 Bowling cards and 33 Batting cards, each showing a particular type of delivery e.g. Good Length, Bouncer, Cut, Hook. Play consists of the bowling player playing a card and the batting player trying to match it with a scoring or defensive stroke. If the batting player has only a dismissal to match the ball bowled, he must play it and his batsman is out. The game is played in six-ball overs, the bowling player drawing a new hand after each over while the batting player continues with the hand they were initially dealt but draws to refill his hand after each ball bowled. Players can play an agreed number of overs or a full 10-wicket innings each.
