Rounders "bowling" is like softball pitching, not the fully-fledged Wes
Hall number I remember from my youth.

So perhaps rounders should be equated with softball (less the caps, worn
forwards or backwards).

Cricketers, on the other hand, used to wear caps almost universally, but
ordinary "peaked" caps, as opposed to baseball caps. This, of course, was
when cricketers were required to wear white clothes...
