Information about which materials they are made up of used in International cricket, their size, weight, height etc.

Ball- red, white or pink ball with a cork base, wrapped in twine covered with leather. The ball should have a circumference of 9.1 in (23 centimetres) unless it is a children's size.

Bat- A wooden bat is used. The wood used is from the Kashmir or English willow tree. The bat cannot be more than 38 inches (96.5 cm) long and 4.25 inches (10.8 cm) wide. Aluminum bats are not allowed. The bat has a long handle and one side has a smooth face.

Stumps- three upright wooden poles that, together with the bails, form the wicket.

Bails- two crosspieces made of wood, placed on top of the stumps.

Boundary: A rope which demarcates the perimeter of the field is known as boundary line. This is marked by a thick white rope

A screen placed at the boundary known as the sight screen. This is aligned exactly parallel to the width of the pitch and behind both pairs of wickets.

Leg Pads: These are worn by batsmen and wicket keepers to protect themselves against the pace of the ball. Today’s pads are very light in weight but are still great protection for the batsmen. Wicket keeper’s pads are similar to batting pads, but they are shorter and lighter in weight, making them easier to move and dive around in.

Gloves: There are two types of gloves, one used by batsmen which has thick padding above the fingers. Wicket keeper wears the other gloves, which are larger in size with web between thumb and forefinger. Wicket keepers like to wear a pair of cotton inners underneath the main gloves.

Helmet: Helmets are worn by batsmen and a maximum of one close fielder or keeper. Helmet is a must to avoid any accident in the field be it full toss, top-edged or a throw, which can hit the player’s head.

Abdominal Guard: It is high density plastic with smooth edge worn to protect the “privates” when batting against a cricket ball or other hard ball. Wicket keepers and fielders close to the wicket should also wear it. It is also called box, cup or cricket box.

Soni, Palak, Jaanu Di anyone wants to explain pitch dimensions or about stumps?

Please add pics of the equipment, so that it's easy to understand.

I only remember what my dad used to say that running 22 yards is not that easy 😆 ( when me n my bro used to loath cricketers back in the day for their slow running between the wickets and run outs i am talking about Indian team before these fit and athletic players 😆)

Pitch dimensions are always 22 yards. N I remember from my school PT textbook that they have to keep space of 1.22 meters behind stumps.
Mera gyaan yahin khatam hota hai 😆

Aur kuch yaad aayega toh will tell you 👍🏼

I remember that space behind stumps because they asked that question in PT theory in board exam😆

Baaki sab evaporate ho gaya hai dimaag se 😆

The length of the Cricket Pitch is 22 yards (20.12 meters or 66 feet). This is the distance from wicket to wicket on either end of the Pitch. The width of a Cricket Pitch is 10 feet (3.05 meters).
