In this article, you will learn about a very interesting indoor game known as dartboard cricket.
Cricket darts is a type of game that we can play at home. It is a type of indoor game that doesn't require or need a specific area or ground to play. For this game, there is a special type of dartboard has been made. That dartboard contains Numbers from 1 to 20 in a circle shape. There are two types of layers in it the first one which is also the exact center of that dartboard is known as the Inner bullseye. The color of this layer is red but the color is not certain. Maybe there will be some dartboards that contain inner bullseye of a different color. After that layer, then the next and the neighbor layer of the inner bullseye is called the outer bull eye. This layer is usually of green color. After these layers, there are three types of rings. Basically, there are only two rings on the dirtboard. The most outer ring is called a double ring. Then the other ring is known as the triple ring. The third area which is called the Single ring occurs in two places in the dartboard. The first place which is known as the Single ring is the area between the outer bullseye and the triple ring. And the next area is between the triple ring and the double ring. On the outer side of the double ring come the numbers from 1 to 20 but they are not arranged in some order. They are not like 1, 2, 3, 4..... rather they are like 20, 1, 18,.....
This game also includes a type of chart. on that chart, we can write the score of every player. Usually, it starts from B, 15, 16, 17, 18 19, and 20. As these numbers occur vertically in the center so on the left side you can write the score of Player 1 or Team 1and on the right side, you can write the score of player 2 or Team 2.
Cricket is usually played between two, three, or four players. But it depends upon the player of cricket they can make teams.
How to play Darts Cricket?
To start the game, one player or if you are playing in a team then each player from both teams will throw an object on the dartboard. The player whose object is closer to its center, the inner bullseye will play first or that player's team. Then the real game starts. Every player will through three objects on the dartboard one by one. Then after three throws, the score of that player will be counted. If the object hit the triple ring then the score of that player will be multiplied by 3 (6x3= 18). The same goes for the double ring if the object hit the double ring then the score will be multiplied by two. The outer bullseye is worth twenty-five points and the inner bullseye is worth fifty points. After the turn of each player, the team or player which has scored more points will be the winner of the game.
