I got all 11.
However, there is a fallacy in one of their questions.
"How many outs are there in an innings?"
The correct answer is 10. However, since 10 was not an option, I assumed they meant 6.
Now can anyone tell me why 10 is the correct answer?

Isn't an "innings" a cricket term? With 5 outs per team per innings in cricket, that would make 10...nez pas?
BTW, I got 10 in the IQ thingy...

NO SOUP FOR YOU!
With that kind of score, you'd be a shoe in for an NFL players' agent

ahh kinda. Cricket is the correct sport.
Each team gets 2 chances to bat. Each turn is called an "Innings." (Yes, it is a plural term, but it signifies one team's batting chance.) There are 11 players per team. Basically, the 1st batter bats and when he hits the ball, he runs from his wicket to another wicket across the infield. Then another batter comes up and bats. When he hits the ball, the runners run from their wicket to the other wicket. (There are only 2 wickets) Then the guy that was up first then bats again, runs to the other wicket, where the other guy bats and runs to the other wicket, etc, etc, until one of them makes an out. Then another batter takes the guy's place who made an out. It is possible that 2 batters may be on the field for several hours if they never get out. This continues until 10 batters get out, because the last batter won't have a partner.
Thus, the correct answer is "10 outs per innings."

It's kinda creepy that you know about cricket.
Next thing you know, you'll be telling us soccer rules, and how Beckham is the Jordan of that sport. |
