When the batter hits the ball, both batters run to the opposite wicket if they think they can get there before the fielders collect the ball and throw it in to one of the ends. They can run back again if there is time. After a bowler has bowled his/her “over” of six balls, the fielders move around and a “new” bowler takes over. Thus everybody should have a chance to bowl, field, keep wicket and bat.
