When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.

The challenge in front of you

Score runs before twelve balls or three wickets. Read that aim before choosing your first action. Take a moment to understand the current position.

Work through the instructions

  1. Bowl the next delivery.
  2. Watch the hitting zone.
  3. Time a swing.
  4. A miss takes a wicket; timing scores 1, 2, 4 or 6.

Input guidance

Bowl and Swing, or Space/touch. Use the control method described here for this activity. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Put the rules into context

Near-perfect timing earns six rather than a weak single. Apply the same reasoning to the position in your own round. Notice the change in the playing area.

An important reminder

This is timing scoring, not full fielding simulation. Read the feedback to see why an action did not have the expected result. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
