How many players are there in each cricket team

Ideally, there are 11 players who play for a team in cricket.

There is a 12th player, kept ready. But cricket is different from football. The concept of "rolling substitution" only applies in football, hockey, etc. Cricket rules do not allow you to substitute players simply because they are not performing well or there is a change in strategy.

Before the match, the teamsheet is finalized and handed over to the opposing side. So both teams can see their opponents.

There are different combinations that teams go with. These days it is very common to have 6 batsmen and 5 bowlers because that extra batsman gives a cushion to your batting line. The sixth batsman may be a wicketkeeper-batsman, depending on the lineup and the availability of the player and pitch.

The lineup may also change as per the format, there may be demand for more batsmen or all-rounders in a T20 and so on.
