Fielding:

Fieldding is one of the most valuable asset in the game of cricket because cricket is a team game and teams performance is judged by the fielding of the team. A teams win can also be determined by the fielding because if the players field well then they will save lot of runs for their team because of which the batsman has to score more amount of runs . It is also said that "caches win matches" so fielding is very important in cricket.


11 fielders are allowed to enter the field for fielding .The fielding position is shown in the image above.  Out of 11 the bowler and the wicket keeper's fielding position is permanent. Other fielders position is placed by the captain as per the requrement.The field position is  determined on a tactical basis by the captain or the bowler. Fielders often change position between deliveries, again as directed by the captain or bowler.
If a fielder is injured or becomes ill during a match, a substitute fielder is  allowed to field instead of him, but the substitute cannot bowl, act as a captain or keep wicket. The substitute leaves the field when the injured player is fit to return.
