Question
What is a Declaration in cricket?
Solution
In the sport of cricket, a declaration occurs when a captain declares his team's innings closed when the ball is dead at any time during the innings. A declared innings shall be considered to be completed innings. Made by the batting side when they believe they have scored sufficient runs to win the game. A declaration can be made by a captain before all his team's batsmen are out. It is normally called so that it allows them enough time to get all the opposing batsmen out with the allotted time or number of overs available.
