Question
What is the length and width of the cricket ground.

Answer
There is no standard size of a cricket ground, they vary widely. Some Test venues are famously small such as Kensington Oval in Barbados, while others are enormous such as The Oval, in Kennington London.

The only sizing regulations that are imposed on the pitch itself which is always 22 yards from wicket to wicket. Further details about its dimensions can be found here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cricket_pitch.
