		The scoring of a four or six is a significant event, often achieved by a display of skill by the batsman, and is usually greeted by a round of applause from the spectators.
		Bowlers, for their part, sometimes encourage batsmen to attempt to hit fours and sixes by bowling deliveries slightly wider of the off stump than would normally be considered a good line, because a batsman who is batting aggressively and trying to hit fours is more likely to make a mistake and get out.
		The One-day International record for most sixes hit in an innings is held by Sanath Jayasuriya who hit 11 sixes against Pakistan in Singapore in the 1994-95 season.

	Boroondara no-six rule hit for six - Cricket - Sport - theage.com.au
		Canterbury Cricket Club president Greg Lister is delighted that the rule has been overturned and that a six will count for six in what is the club's 100th season at the Guildford Road ground.
		The council imposed the partial ban on sixes after a complaint from a resident across Croydon Road in the line of fire — and because of fears that wayward cricket balls could hit motorists or pedestrians, causing injury, leading to costly litigation.
		Cricket Victoria's community cricket manager, John Harris, was pleased with the decision, saying it "has to be good for cricket".

	Historical Encyclopedia of WA - Cricket
		But isolation and poor pitches meant that when eastern Australia and England inaugurated Test cricket in the 1870s and 1880s roundarm and underarm bowling were still common in the West and matting-on-concrete pitches the only true batting surfaces.
		No less important to cricket’s future was North’s ten-year career from 1891 as secretary to Premier Forrest, who granted an extra five acres to the WACA in 1897.
		Despite a strong grassroots district competition, West Australian cricket was heavily dependent in the early 2000s on commercial sponsorship and grants from its national parent, Cricket Australia.

		At Sussex County Cricket Club they have been dressed for the altar longer than Miss Havisham - 164 years, to be precise, which predates Charles Dickens' Great Expectations by a couple of decades.
		And here, beside the seaside, between the regency and the raffish, the oldest of the county clubs - and one of only three never to have won the title, discounting Durham - are planning a party that might bring a blush to even the most difficult people to embarrass in these islands.
		Mushtaq plays but Sussex are without their England fast bowler James Kirtley, who has led the attack for most of the summer but failed a fitness test on his shin splints yesterday.

		Cricket, that oft-jeered English cousin of America's favorite bat-and-ball game and the sport famously described by actor Robin Williams as "baseball on Valium," was always something that other countries had been good at.
		The cricket clubs in the New York area, home to many members of the national team, are populated with immigrants from nearly every major Caribbean island, with Jamaica and Guyana making up the two largest donors to the cricket pool.
		The New York Cricket Region, host to 10 of the country's 26 cricket leagues, has proclaimed its mission as "promoting the world's best game." However, there is very little evidence to suggest that they are on their way toward achieving that goal.

	Cricket For America
		Incidentally, if proof were needed that cricket is the natural game of the pedant, the MCC sees fit to state in the laws that if the ball hits the the wicket by way of the pad, even if it satisfies the criteria for an lbw, the batsman is out bowled, not lbw.
		The resulting personal fitness sustained him in Test cricket to the age of 41, but his insistence that others share his approach brought a premature and controversial end to the career of David Gower, and his over-use of Angus Fraser in 1990-1 contributed to the hip injury that cost Fraser two years of cricket.
		Each country's board is answerable to the International Cricket Council, which fixes the schedules and conditions for all international cricket, and co-operates with the MCC in updating the laws of the game.
