Cut-Throat Cricket

Cricket is usually played as a singles or doubles match. There is another variation called Cut-Throat Cricket where more than two can play. Everything in the game is the same except for points. Instead of keeping the points you score, you give them to players not yet closed on the number you pointed. In this game, the player who closes first with the least amount of points is the winner. Beware of players who want to keep the points in Cricket when more than two players are involved. It's a reduction in strategy that invites players to beat up on a particular opponent, and it take away from the individuals's ability to win or lose the game.

Until Next Time!
