The Past Plass - A Brief History

Batsman and batter were both commonly used terms before they worked their way into the rules. The first three men have almost invariably one more chance at the bat in each game than the others. This gives them an advantage if the average is computed by base hits to games, as is proved in the instance of macer, the second striker. So we're still aways away from distinguishing it between batsmen and batters. But i could possibly keep track of how many minesed and teed off are there? Your guess is as good as mine's!
