Everyone who loves the game plays indoor cricket. Even I do, and similar to Mark, I play it with the yellow smiley ball and a small bat.
wow, I do exactly the same.

Exactly. Even if it hits to the Air Conditioner or any light, the batsman is out. We have different runs for different doors and curtains. Like if the ball touches the main entrance door, its a four. Even if it touches the wall on the opposite side, the batsman get a boundary and a six if it touches it without bouncing anywhere.The one big one is that if it hits the TV you're out
Yes, one bounce catch has to be there, otherwise a batsman won't get out here. But we don't have any such rule that it has to be one handed.do you play one bounce catch?
Probably that's the reason India has failed to produce brilliant fielders over the years.Makes it a bit more challenging otherwise one bounce catch is too easy
Playing on terrace, if it crosses the boundaries of terrace batsman will be rewarded with -6 runs and a wicket:PIf the batsman manages to hit the ball on the opposite side of the wall without bouncing, he is rewarded with +6.Another way to get six runs is by hitting it on left side of the terrace.There are many obstacles present on the way and also there's high risk to get the ball out of terrace.In short its quite fun to play on terrace.:PThe one big one is that if it hits the TV you're out
After we finished writing our papers, we used to play in a vacant space nearby using examination pad as the bat and tiny plastic ball.
We still do it lol.Instead of plastic ball we used sponge ball though.Talking about playing weird sort of cricket, me and my mates used to have a lot of fun in school during exams. After we finished writing our papers, we used to play in a vacant space nearby using examination pad as the bat and tiny plastic ball. Was fun, and boundaries were so short that scoring 20 and over was pretty easy. Though no one ever scored a century there as we had only 5 overs per side. Highest was me with 88 not out.
