1.INTRODUCTION Cricket is one of the most popular and unpredictable game. Till the very last moment it is difficult to predict the game. Due to its extensive popularity, media has shown its full coverage to the issues related to cricket.

Pitch: Unlike other sports, cricket stadium’s size and shape is not fixed except the dimensions of the inner circle and pitch which are 30 yards and 22 yards respectively. Outfield variations and pitch can have a substantiate effect on bowling and batting. The spin of the ball, seam movement and the bounce depends on the nature of the pitch.

Cricket [1] is played in three formats namely Twenty over (T20), One day international (ODI) and Test. A Twenty over game is the shortest format in cricket. It includes two teams, batting for a maximum of 20 overs, each has a single innings. It is claimed to have resulted as an "explosive" form of cricket and more athletic than other two formats.

It depends on how wet is the pitch. The more wet the pitch, the slower it will play. On the off chance that it is drying out, those balls will change significantly, yet all it will get less difficult those drier it gets.

One Day International cricket match is of limited overs, played between two international teams where each team must face fixed number of overs, usually 50.

It additionally relies on upon how much grass is on the pitch. A green top pitch with a greater amount of grass will have a greater amount of crease development, particularly if the pitch is hard. It will be troublesome for spinners to turn the ball. Pitches with no grass tend to help spinners, if dry and dusty (they tend to be simpler to bat at first before they have decayed). It also depends on how hard is the pitch. Hard pitches will have high rate of bounce and the ball will come onto the bat more quickly. They give and equal chance to batsmen and bowlers.

Test cricket format is the longest form compared to Twenty over and ODI format and is also considered its highest standard. It is played between national representative teams selected from the best players stated as “Test Status”, as determined by the International Cricket Council(ICC). A standard test cricket day consists of 3 sessions of 2 hours each. From the 16th century to first official test cricket match on 1877 to first ODI cricket World Cup in 1975 with 60 overs
