Kohum Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Situation #9 A spinner tosses a ball up really slowly, the batsman is tempted and comes down the wicket to hit it up misses it. Fearing he will be stumped he makes an effort to get back to the crease, seeing this the wicket keeper reaches forward to collect the ball in front of the stumps so he could stump the batsman out. What is the correct decision and the reasoning behind it? Prize: $50000 ICF (you'll only receive the full amount if you mention everything I am looking for) Not out, wicket keeper is supposed to collect the ball behind the stumps. If the ball has bounced off of any part of batsman's body or wicketkeeper's body it can be collected, otherwise not. Link to comment
diegovegaz Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 the batsman will be not out as the wicket keeper can't collect the ball in front of the stumps this is why brad haddin was called a cheat in a match against RSA Link to comment
Malcolm Merlyn Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 situation 9 the batsman is not out because you are out stumped if the wicket keeper removes the bail after the ball has crossed the stumps and the batsman is still outside the crease,as the ball was still in front of the stumps so theortically there was still time for the batsman to get in.hence he is NOT OUT Link to comment
Sachinism Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 Situation #9 Decision You would call no-ball. The batsman cannot be stumped off a no ball. The wicket keeper is not allowed to collect the ball in front of the stumps unless it has hit the bat or a part of the batsmen. I was looking for the no ball part. Anyways well done all of you, but zubin got in there 1st. Link to comment
Sachinism Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Situation #10 Two fielders are running round to take a high catch. They realise the ball is going to clear them for six. They react quickly and one fielder lifts his team mate in the air to catch the ball. Is the batsman out? Prize: $10000 ICF Situation #11 A pitch is becoming to dangerous to continue playing on and you're thinking about abandoning the match, but the groundsman informs you that he was preparing a wicket for another match and it would play better than the current out. Are you allowed to move the match to that pitch? Prize: $20000 ICF Link to comment

rahuliverpool Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Situation 10 Yes, it's out. If the ball is caught before it crosses the line, it is out. Situation 11 No, you are not. You cannot change the playing strip while the match is on. Link to comment

diegovegaz Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 10 the batsman is out because no external agency is used to take the catch 11 the match cannot be played on another pitch it has to be abandoned Link to comment

ludhianvi Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Great thread..I always pondered about these scenarios. Is there one where the ball bounces twice? Situation #10 Two fielders are running round to take a high catch. They realise the ball is going to clear them for six. They react quickly and one fielder lifts his team mate in the air to catch the ball. Is the batsman out? I would say out. As long as the player, if tossed, was inside the ground when thrown up, and his body doesnt touch any area outside the boundary with the ball intact, and he lets go off the ball and passes it to his teammate (who should be inside the boundary line), it would be out. I always pondered when someone would do this :hehe: Link to comment
Sachinism Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Situation #10 Decision Out. There is nothing wrong with doing that. Congrats Rahuliverpool Situation #11 Decision Yes the pitch can be changed if the umpire believes the pitch they are using is not fit for play, with consent of both captains they are allowed to use another pitch. Congrats rainy day. Link to comment
Sachinism Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 Situation #12 A batsman is struck on the pads the 1st ball he faces, the fielding side go up in appeal, the batsman walks off without waiting for the decision. However, you would have judged the lbw appeal to be not out. Can you intervene and tell the batsman he is not out? Prize: $30000 ICF Link to comment
Malcolm Merlyn Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 If the batsman walks then it is out and the umpire cant call him back.But if an umpire gives a wrong decision he can call back the batsman if he has not crossed the boundary. Link to comment
rahuliverpool Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Yes, if the batsman hasn't crossed the boundary line, you can tell him if he is not out. :hmmmm: Link to comment
