What are inheritance and overloading
How many classes are used, and how many are derived classes?
Can you explain in short about each void function?
How did the bowling and out system work?
Which is the central part for out, bowling, and toss?

why bowler is not changing
1. Anonymous July 23, 2022 at 11:33 AM
  
  Bowler is not changing because we are selecting the first team player and this program only runs for 1st over, so that's why bowler is not changing.
Anonymous July 22, 2022 at 9:17 PM

sir but right output is not coming.
