I guess it'll increase the importance of winning the toss.
 
Not much to it really Febbos, someone flings a ball at you and you try and hit it with a bat.
If the ball hits the wooden sticks or the chalk lines drawn on a wall, or someone catches the ball your finished otherwise you just keep swinging till your mam shouts for you to come in for your tea.
Also if it starts raining you quit and go in for a game of monopoly or some other indoor pursuit and carry on after the rain stops.
Oh I nearly forgot in tenfoot cricket you can be out if someone catches the ball one handed after it has bounced once, known as the one hand one bounce rule.
Hope that cleared it up for you

I think Febbos is unlikely to know what a ten-foot is, never mind knowing the one hand/one bounce rule. <laugh>

Febbos - ten-foot is a term only used in the great city of Hull and it's the name for a wide alley that runs between houses, usually at the bottom of gardens that back on to each other(where's there often a garage), as it's name suggests, it's ten feet wide.
