cricket season

Bat-and-ball months

Cricket season is the time of year when cricket is regularly played, varying by region—summer in England, winter in Australia and South Asia.

The phrase often evokes leisurely afternoons, white uniforms, and tea breaks: We always visit during cricket season.

It can also refer to the period when cricket insects are most audible, chirping through warm nights.
