You are the umpire - ICF game


Recommended Posts

Situation #12 A batsmen goes down the track to a slower bowler, the ball turns sharply and the batsman misses it. The ball ends up in the hands of 1st slip, who moves to the stumps and takes the bails off. Is the batsman stumped or run out? Why? Prize: $20000 ICF Situation #13 It is an extremely windy day and the bails are constantly falling off the stumps. The umpire decides to remove the bails and carry on, so they wouldn't have so many stoppages in play. The next the batsman has a swipe at the ball and ends up inside edging it onto his pad, the ball then trickles into the stumps. The batsman stands his ground saying the bails would not have come off as the contact with the stumps was faint. What is your decision? Prize: $25000 ICF Situation #14 A batsmen offers no shot to a delivery that flicks the pad. The non striker calls for a single but in his haste, doesn't ground the bat properly, creating a short run. They attempt a second run but the batsman fails to make his ground at the wicketkeepers end and the bails are removed causing the fielding side to appeal. What do you signal here? Prize: $60000 ICF (you only receive full amount for covering why you give a decision(s) and getting everything correct)

Batsman is runout, for he moved out of his crease and missed, and now has to cover ground to get back to safety of his crease.

If the bails were there, it'd have been hard to say if they fell due to wind or the ball. Hence the decision to remove the bails, and that leads to a decision of NOT OUT

1st : it's a bye - it'd have been 2 but 1 is short, hence 1 bye. IF the batsman has failed to make his ground, he is out and hence there's no 'complete run' so 0lb signal for 0 bye & 1 run out.

He's run out as only the wicket keeper can stump a person.

Situation 12 If the batsman is backing up and the 1st slip fielder hits the stumps, then the batsman is run-out. Only a wicketkeeper can get you out stumped. Situation 13 It is out. The umpire decided to remove the bails, so if the ball hits the stumps, the fielding side deserves the wicket. Situation 14 As the first run is not completed and the second run causes the run-out, the umpire will signal 0 bye (for the ball hitting the pad with no run being taken) and run-out.

Dead ball as no shot was offered and no run completed. Therefore its a dead ball, no run and no run out.

can one be adjudged run out, even if he is not taking a run? i mean it makes some sense it can't be given run out if he is not running
Dont confuse the run of run out that the batsman has to be running or attempting to take a run in order to be run out. Unless the ball is dead, if the batsman is out of the crease and the wicket is broken by a fielder with the ball, it is run out irrespective of whether the batsman was attempting a run or not.

Situation #13 Decision The batsman is out. When the bails have been removed the ball only has to strike the stumps for the batsman to be given out. Well done Rahuliverpool Situation #14 Decision Not out. If the batsman offers no shot to a delivery then no runs can be scored.. The batsman are allowed to run one run only to allow the fielding side the chance of a run out. As soon as that run is completed the bowler's end umpire would call and signal, dead ball - not allowing the wicket to be taken. No run would be scored and the ball would count in that over. rainy day got it correct, but im beginning to suspect he has this book, because all his answers are suspiciously precise.

Situation #15 A fielder chase a ball to a long boundary, by the time he gets to the ball he hears a team mate shout out the batsmen have already completed 4 runs and are on their way for the 5th. Without hesitating, he nudges the ball over the rope with his foot, hoping for a four to limit the damage. What do you do? Prize: $40000 ICF
