So called because the stock delivery is a leg break. Common variations include the googly, top spinner, and flipper. Leg theory
A tactic sometimes used by the fielding side. The bowler aims for a line on leg stump and more fielders than usual are placed on the leg side, particularly short catching positions. This prevents the batsman from playing shots on the off side. The goal is to slow the scoring and frustrate the batsman into an opportunity for a catch. See also fast leg theory and Bodyline. The opposite of off theory. Leggie
1.  a leg spin bowler
2.  a leg break delivery

Length
the place along the pitch where a delivery bounces (see short pitched, good length, half-volley, full toss). Life
a batsman being reprieved because of a mistake by the fielding team, through dropping a catch, missing a run-out chance or the wicket-keeper missing a stumping. Light
see bad light

Limited overs match
a one-innings match where each side may only face a set number of overs. Another name for one-day cricket. Line (also see Line and length)
the deviation of the point along the pitch where a delivery bounces from the line from wicket-to-wicket (to the leg side or the off side). Line and length bowling
bowling so that a delivery pitches on a good length and just outside off stump. This forces the batsman to play a shot as the ball may hit the stumps. List A cricket
the limited-overs equivalent of first-class cricket.
Top- or middle-order batsmen may adopt an anchor role if the other batsmen experience a batting collapse. Appeal
A bowler or fielder asking the umpire to dismiss the batsman, usually by shouting howzat (hows that?). Variations include howzee (hows he? ), or simply turning to the umpire and cheering. The umpire cannot give a batsman out unless the fielding side appeals, even if the criteria for a dismissal have otherwise been met. Batsmen who are obviously out (e.g. bowled or indisputably caught) will normally walk from the field without waiting for an appeal. Approach
1. The motion of the bowler before bowling the ball; also known as the run-up. 2. The ground a bowler runs on during their run up; e.g. : "Play was delayed because the bowlers approaches were slippery." Arm ball
A variation bowled by a finger spinner, which appears to be their stock ball but does not spin. Such a delivery does not turn when bouncing but travels straight on i.e. following the line of the bowlers arm, hence the name. An arm ball might also swing. Around the wicket (or round the wicket)
A right-handed bowler passing to the right of the non-strikers stumps in their run-up, and vice versa for a left-handed bowler. The opposite of over the wicket. The Ashes 
The trophy for the England v Australia Test match series.
