States.While the sport was popular in early America,the rising popularity of baseball in the late 1800s changed that.Probably based on an English childrens game called rounders,baseball,with its faster pace and shorter game-time,was a better fit for American tastes,and by the early 1900s,cricket had all but vanished from the United States.Cricket Level SThe nineteenth century is known as “the Golden Age of Cricket.”Bowlers started bowling overarm,and batters adapted to balls bowled at a higher rate of speed.Cricket spread all over the world:teams formed in the United States,Canada,Australia,India,South Africa,New Zealand,and throughout the Caribbean.In the late nineteenth century,what are now thought of as the first Test-level cricket matches were played.Test matches are long,multiday matches that decide international championships.Do You Know?12Cricket was featured in the 1900 Olympic Games.Since then,crickets popularity around the world has grown.Now,international teams play against nations that ruled cricket during its Golden Age.They bring new things to the sport,like the fast bowling style created by West Indian players.A West Indies bowler throws a ball during a championship match against Australia in 2014.Balls can travel about 95 to 100 mph(152.8160.9 kmph).5Cricket Level SHow to Play CricketTeams play cricket on an oval field with a cleared rectangle in it called the pitch.Two teams with eleven players take turns batting and bowling.A teams turn at bat is called an inning.On the bowling team,one player takes the position of bowler(thrower)and another takes the position of wicketkeeper(catcher).The other nine players take position in the oval.Two batters from the batting team take the field and stand on opposite ends of the pitch.The first player to bat is called the striker.The other batter is the nonstriker.An Australian wicketkeeper(yellow)prepares to catch a ball.The wicketkeeper is similar to the catcher in
