Roshanrocks Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 The fielding captain asks the opening pair which one of them is facing. 'Who's bowling?' is the reply. The fielding captain refuses to say and the batsmen refuse to walk to an end until they know who is bowling. What do you do? I would tell the team of the toss losing captain to decide first or forfeit the game Situation #28 A batsman is running for a quick single, as he's approaching the crease, a fielder throws the ball which hits the bat out of the batsman's hand and the ball deflects onto the stumps; all the while the batsman is still outside his crease. What do you give? He is out, becuase all the events occured naturally and without any purposeful intention of the fielding team. Link to comment

The captain will have to take the new ball because the old ball got lost as there are no replacements for balls over 100 overs, if he doesnt i guess he forfeits the game. Link to comment
gaurav92 Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Situation 25 with a twist Answer : The captain will either take the new ball, or forfeit the match, BTW there are very less instances where we find that there is no ball 100 overs old, such cases are not even rare. Link to comment

Lord Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 Situation #27 The fielding captain asks the opening pair which one of them is facing. 'Who's bowling?' is the reply. The fielding captain refuses to say and the batsmen refuse to walk to an end until they know who is bowling. Who do you do? i guess its the batsman responsibility to take strike first.if he refuses to take strike without being told whos the bowler,u declare him timed out Situation #28 A batsman is running for a quick single, as he's approaching the crease, a fielder throws the ball which hits the bat out of the batsman's hand and the ball deflects onto the stumps; all the while the batsman is still outside his crease. What do you give? not out.once the bat is out of the batsman hand,it is a foreign object n not part of the play.the ball is dead. Link to comment
DomainK Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 :fail: the captain is within laws to continue with a older ball ... used to happen all the time in the good old days of Indian cricket. So what the umpire does is takes the oldest ball available and scrubs away using a sand paper to get it to a state close to the previous ball .... Ball tempering by an umpire.:omg: Link to comment

DomainK Posted March 25, 2010 Share Posted March 25, 2010 :hysterical: you didnt know that right :--D Well, I did know that umpires can work on a ball to bring it to the necessary condition. But I must admit that the answer had not occurred to me till I read your reply. Link to comment
