Cricket - The Dice Game

Post by Helmi » Tue May 04, 2004 1:35 am

Does anyone know how to play Cricket with dice? I vaguely remember it as a child but cannot remember what the rules were.

Can anyone help, please? :thumbsup:

I have the cricket dice game called 'Owzat. I spent many an hour playing with that during boring lessons at school :)

If you played it with normal dice you could do it like so: (I think)

Throw the 1st dice...1,2,3,4,6, would score runs. If you throw a 5 it would be 'Owzat. so then throw the 2nd dice. Then you would have the following options applied as you choose to the 6 numbers: LBW, Caught, Bowled, Stumped, No Ball and Not Out.
I hope that makes some sense.......back to the wine bottle :)
