The objective of each team is to score more runs than the other team and to completely dismiss
the other team. In limited overs cricket, winning the game is achieved
by scoring the most runs within the overs allowed, even if the
opposition has not been completely dismissed. In Test cricket,
it is necessary to score the most runs and dismiss the opposition twice
in order to win the match, which would otherwise be drawn.
How runs are scored and teams win a match.
In the sport of cricket, a run is the basic unit of scoring. Runs are scored by a batsman, and the aggregate of the scores of a team's batsmen (plus any extras) constitutes the team's score. A batsman scoring 50 (a 'half century') or 100 runs (a 'century'
or 'ton'), or any higher multiple of 50 runs, is considered a
particular achievement. By extension, a partnership of two batsmen
moving the team score on by a multiple of 50 runs, or the team score
passing a multiple of 50 runs, is also cause for celebration.
