Priti Park, Odhav, Ahmedabad - 382415, Gujarat, India. Nationality Indian. The following specification particularly describes the invention, the nature of this invention (and the manner in which it is to be performed): 27-5-2005 ORIGINAL 420/MUM/2004 GRANTED 27 MAY 2005 AN APPARATUS FOR IN— HOUSE CRICKET GAME FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to IN-HOUSE CRICKET, more particularly indoor cricket. In this game it includes a board, which contains 101 boxes with view of pitch and score board can be folded into three or four columns. Further, the present invention comprises a ball having ten sides showing numbers of runs from zero to four and six and no ball and wide ball.

Preferably the outer diameter of the ball rages from 15 mm to 55 mm. The ball can be made up of any material like rubber, lakh, wood, plastic, acrylic, bakelite, aluminum, etc. The ball may be with a hole through it. The inner diameter of the ball also varies. The size of the playing board is in the measurement of 1 (width) x 1.5 (length). The preferred size of the playing board ranges from 12 inches (width) x 15 inches (length) to 15 x inches (width) x 18 inches (length). The board can be made up of any material like plastic, card board, rubber, wood, paper, etc. One more important part of the game is a score board Fig. 17, given separately or as one fold with the card of the game. The size of the score board can be set accordingly; preferably it is of 8 inches x 5 inches if given separately else it is of the size according to the board of the game.
