title: How to play cricket

[This is the best explaination of how to play cricket](http://www.cricket.org/link_to_database/ABOUT_CRICKET/EXPLANATION/CRICKET_EXPLAINED_AMERICAN.html) that I've ever seen. It's written for an American audience, and it answers all the questions I've ever had about the game. I used to watch cricket games going on in college (played entirely by foreign students), and never completely understood what was happening. I want to play now.
