THE LAWS OF CRICKET
(Thanks to the MCC c/o www.lords.org)

Okay, I'll be honest with you, I was going to put the entire set of Laws of Cricket on this site, but when I went to www.lords.org and saw how much of it there was, I thought sod you, I'm not going through all that lot!

So I didn't.

Instead, I have placed a link (below) for you to download the latest version of the laws of Cricket that came direct from the MCC/Lords HQ web site.

If for some reason you have difficulty opening the document, you may need Adobe Reader. You can download the latest version by clicking the image below (It's FREE by the way).

THE FIELD OF PLAY

For information purposes, below you will see a couple of images relating to the day-to-day participation of the game. One is the actual pitch itself and the regulation dimensions (God knows we need to look at that, I'd swear it gets bigger each year!) and the other is a visual of the fielding positions.

Now we'll have no excuse for standing in the wrong place looking sheepishly embarrassed.

Pitch Dimensions

Dimensions are in Imperial and that new fangled metric system

Fielding Positions

Based on a right handed batsman at the crease
