About: Cricket pitch

An Entity of Type: Abstraction100002137, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

In the game of cricket, the cricket pitch consists of the central strip of the cricket field between the wickets. It is 22 yd (20.12 m) long (1 chain) and 10 ft (3.05 m) wide. The surface is flat and is normally covered with extremely short grass, but can be completely dry or dusty soil with barely any grass or, in some circumstances (that are rarely seen in high level cricket), made from an artificial material. Over the course of a cricket match, the pitch is not repaired or altered other than in special circumstances - meaning that it will change condition. Any grass on the pitch in the game's first over, for example, may have disappeared by twentieth over due to wear.

  • Die Cricket Pitch ist der Teil des Spielfeldes zwischen den beiden Wickets, ungefähr in der Mitte des Cricketfeldes. Er ist der wichtigste Bereich des Platzes. Im Amateurbereich ist heute häufig Kunstrasen in Verwendung, doch im professionellen Cricket wird immer auf natürlichem Rasen gespielt. Der übrige und größte Teil des Spielfeldes ist immer aus Naturrasen. (de)
  • In the game of cricket, the cricket pitch consists of the central strip of the cricket field between the wickets. It is 22 yd (20.12 m) long (1 chain) and 10 ft (3.05 m) wide. The surface is flat and is normally covered with extremely short grass, but can be completely dry or dusty soil with barely any grass or, in some circumstances (that are rarely seen in high level cricket), made from an artificial material. Over the course of a cricket match, the pitch is not repaired or altered other than in special circumstances - meaning that it will change condition. Any grass on the pitch in the game's first over, for example, may have disappeared by twentieth over due to wear. As almost all deliveries bowled will bounce off the pitch towards the batsmen, the state and type of a cricket pitch can significantly affect the outcome of a match. For example, a dusty, very dry, pitch will favour spin bowling because the ball will grip more on a dusty pitch - giving the team with the superior spin bowlers a significant advantage in the match. The state of the pitch is so important to the outcome of a cricket match that home teams can be fined or docked points if they produce a poor pitch that is deemed unfit for normal play, or seen to be a danger to batsmen by the ball behaving erratically when pitching on it. Players can face disciplinary action if they are seen to be deliberately damaging or altering the pitch in ways that are not allowed by the Laws of Cricket. Because of this, coaches, players, commentators and pundits will make much of how the pitch is "behaving" during a cricket match, especially during a first class or a Test match that takes place over several days, wherein the condition of the pitch can change significantly over that period. These conditions will impact on the decision at the coin toss at the beginning of the game, as to whether batting first or bowling first is more advantageous. For example, a captain will prefer to bat first if the pitch is "flat" and presumably easier to bat on, but may be tempted to bowl first on a greener, more moist pitch that favours movement of the ball early. In amateur matches in some parts of the world, artificial pitches are sometimes used. These can be a slab of concrete overlaid with a coir mat or artificial turf. Sometimes dirt is put over the coir mat to provide an authentic feeling pitch. Artificial pitches are rare in professional cricket, being used only when exhibition matches are played in regions where cricket is not a common sport. The pitch has specific markings delineating the creases, as specified by the Laws of Cricket. The word wicket often occurs in reference to the pitch. Although technically incorrect according to the Laws of Cricket (Law 6 covers the pitch and Law 8 the wickets, distinguishing between them), cricket players, followers, and commentators persist in the usage, with context eliminating any possible ambiguity. Track or deck are other synonyms for pitch. The rectangular central area of the cricket field – the space used for pitches – is known as the square. Cricket pitches are usually oriented as close to the north-south direction as practical, because the low afternoon sun would be dangerous for a batsman facing due west. (en)
  • Au cricket, la piste, en anglais pitch est une zone rectangulaire située au centre du terrain. Elle mesure vingt-deux yards de long sur dix pieds de large, soit 20,12 m sur 3,05 m. L'herbe y est très courte et le terrain très dur, préparé avec de lourds rouleaux. Les lignes tracées sur le pitch sont décrites par la septième loi. On trouve à chaque extrémité de la piste l'un des deux guichets. Lorsque le lanceur envoie la balle, il la lance vers le sol où elle fait un rebond avant d'atteindre le batteur. La qualité du rebond sera fortement influencée par la qualité du pitch. C'est pourquoi les deux capitaines étudieront le pitch de près et prendront d'abord en compte sa qualité, susceptible d'évoluer en cours de match, afin de décider lors du toss s'il débutent la partie à la balle ou à la batte. Les règles de préparation et d'entretien du pitch sont décrites dans la neuvième loi, sa protection en cas de pluie, ou durant la nuit dans le cas de match durant plusieurs jours, font l'objet de la dixième loi.

  • De cricket pitch (of gewoon pitch) is het centrale gedeelte van het cricketveld. De pitch is ruim 20 meter (precies 22 yard) lang en 3 meter breed. Het oppervlak van de cricketpitch is meestal heel glad. Op professionele cricketvelden is de pitch van gras. In Nederland bestaan slechts enkele pitches van gras. Alle andere pitches in Nederland zijn gemaakt van andere (kunstmatige) materialen, zoals kunstgras. De cricketpitch bestaat uit enkele onderdelen: * De stumps (3 palen), die samen het wicket vormen. De batsman moet dit wicket verdedigen, de batsman staat er dus voor. * De bowling crease, een lijn om aan te geven waar de bowler vandaan hoort te bowlen naar het wicket en de batter. * De popping crease, een lijn waar de bowler de bal moet hebben losgelaten. Als hij de bal daar nog niet losgelaten heeft is er sprake van een no-ball. * De return crease, de plek waar de batsman terugkeert van het lopen van een run. (nl)
  • 크리켓 피치(cricket pitch)는 중앙에 위치한, 양쪽 끝에 두 개의 위켓이 세워진 좁고 긴 공간이다. 피치의 길이는 20.12미터(22야드)이며 폭은 3미터(10피트)이다. 표면은 평탄하며 대개 길이가 매우 짧은 잔디로 덮여있다. 아마추어 경기에서는 인조 피치가 널리 사용된다. 이것은 콘크리트 바닥 위에 인조 잔디 등을 깐 것으로, 프로 경기에서 사용되는 것과 같은 질감을 만들기 위해 그 위에 흙을 덮기도 한다. 프로 경기에서는 인조 피치는 거의 사용되지 않는다. 피치 위에는 라 불리는 선이 그어져 있으며, 이것의 규격은 에 정의되어 있다. 피치의 양쪽 끝에는 위켓이 세워져 있는데, 이 위켓이라는 용어는 종종 피치 자체를 가리키는 말로 사용되기도 한다. 크리켓 규정에서는 피치와 위켓의 의미를 엄격히 구분하여 사용하고 있으나, 크리켓 선수들이나 동호인들 사이에서는 그 의미상의 혼용이 보편적으로 존재한다. 피치와 동일한 의미를 가지는 다른 용어로 ‘트랙’(track)이 있다.

  • Pitch (ang. "murawa") to centralna część boiska krykietowego o wymiarach 22 jardy na 10 stóp. Na każdym jego końcu wbite są w ziemię wickety ("bramki"). Jeden koniec pitchu wyznaczany jest jako "koniec odbicia" (to tam pozycję zajmuje batsman), a drugi jako "koniec rzutu" (stamtąd rzuca bowler). Linia łącząca wickety dzieli pole na dwie części; zależnie od tego, jak batsman trzyma kij, prawa (dla odbijającego praworęcznego) lub lewa (dla leworęcznego) nosi nazwę off side, a przeciwna on side lub leg side ("strona nogi").

  • 板球比赛中,板球道有中央分隔带板球道之间的三柱门 - 1 链或22码(20.12米)长,10英尺(3米)宽。表面非常平坦,通常短草覆盖,但在比赛中很快球场两端的草就会被磨去. 在业余比赛中,常用人工球道。有的是混凝土板,棕垫覆盖人工草皮,有时用土覆盖棕榈垫,为球道提供真实感。人工球场在专业板球赛中比较罕见-只有在地区重要的表演赛中才使用. 在板球规则中规定,球道上有非常具体的区域线作为标记划分. 三柱门一词也常指球道。虽然技术上不正确,但根据板球规则(规则七包括了球场和规则八三柱门,它们之间的区别),板球员,追随者,评论员坚持使用以消除任何可能的情况下歧义。赛场(track)是另一同义词。 球场中央区域的长方形--球场使用的空间- -被称为广场。.
