In cricket, the five runs refer to the different ways a batsman can score runs during an innings. These include runs scored through batting (by running between the wickets), boundaries (4 runs for hitting the ball to the boundary and 6 runs for hitting it over the boundary without touching the ground), extras (such as wides and no-balls), and partnerships (where multiple batsmen contribute to the total score). Additionally, runs can be added through penalties awarded to the batting team, known as penalty runs. Each method contributes to the overall score of the team in the match.
