Differences between Cricket and Baseball:

1) Field Size and Shape:
Cricket is played on a circular or oval-shaped field, while baseball is played on a diamond-shaped field with bases.

2) Gameplay and Scoring:
In cricket, the bowler (pitcher) throws the ball towards the batsman (batter), who tries to hit it and score runs by running between wickets. In baseball, the pitcher throws the ball towards the batter, who attempts to hit it and advance around the bases to score runs.

3) Equipment:
Cricket players use a flat bat and wear protective gear, including pads and helmets. Baseball players use a rounded bat and wear a glove for catching and fielding.

4) Innings and Outs:
In cricket, each team has two innings to score runs, while in baseball, each team has nine innings to score runs.
In cricket, a team has ten outs (wickets) to complete their innings, whereas in baseball, a team has three outs per inning.

5) Pitching and Bowling:
In cricket, the bowler delivers the ball overhand with a straight arm motion, aiming to bounce it off the pitch towards the batsman. In baseball, the pitcher throws the ball overhand with a bent arm motion, aiming to deliver it to the batter within the strike zone.

6) Fielding Positions:
Cricket has various fielding positions, including slips, gully, point, cover, mid-off, mid-on, square leg, fine leg, and deep positions. Baseball has specific fielding positions such as pitcher, catcher, first baseman, second baseman, third baseman, shortstop, and outfielders.

7) Length of the Game:
A cricket match can span several days, with breaks for meals and rest, whereas baseball games are typically completed within a few hours.

8) Bowler/Batter Interaction:
In cricket, the bowler aims to deceive the batsman with various types of deliveries, such as fast balls, spin, and swing. In baseball, the pitcher focuses on throwing different pitches, such as fastballs, curveballs, and changeups, to outsmart the batter.

9) Runs and Boundaries:
Cricket offers various ways to score runs, including running between the wickets, hitting boundaries (four runs), and clearing the boundary without bouncing (six runs). In baseball, runs are scored by advancing around the bases and hitting home runs by clearing the outfield fence.

10) Game Duration and Format:
Cricket matches can be played in different formats, such as Test matches (multiple days), One Day Internationals (ODIs), and Twenty20 (T20) matches. Baseball games follow a standardized format, with nine innings in professional play.
