cricket matches
Wicket-based sporting contests
Cricket matches are games of cricket, a bat-and-ball sport played between two teams.
Matches range from limited-overs formats lasting a few hours to Test matches spanning up to five days.
The phrase appears in sports coverage and scheduling: The cricket matches were rained out.
In British and Commonwealth contexts, attending or watching cricket matches is a cultural institution.
