What happens if both totals end up level?

The side batting second has to pass the other total, so a level finish means the side that batted first has defended it and won the match.

Is there a time limit on a throw?

No. Nothing anywhere in the game is on a clock — you can take as long as you want before every throw.

What does watching an ad give me?

It replays the match you just lost, with your streak untouched. Win it and your run carries on. It is offered once per run, and runs that used it are kept as a separate best.

Why did I go out on my first ball?

You and your opponent threw the same number. One wicket ends an innings wherever it happens, including on the first ball of the over.

About Haath Cricket

Haath Cricket is the playground game, played against an opponent who is trying to read you. You each throw a number from one to six at the same instant. Throw different numbers and the batsman scores what they threw; throw the same number and the batsman is out. A match is one over each way — six balls, one wicket — so it takes about twenty seconds, and your score is the number of matches you win in a row. You bat first, then you defend your total, and the side chasing has to pass it rather than match it. There is no clock anywhere: take as long as you like over a throw. The whole game happens in the moment both hands come up together, and the longer your streak runs the harder your opponent becomes to read.
