Post by: Manormanic on March 04, 2013, 05:36:19 PM: why should it be a dead ball? the bowler has run up and delivered a ball which was not legal, I think a penalty is entirely fair.

if the batsman breaks the stumps at his end, he's out.

I agree with this as should be penalised as should not be happening as said of batsmen hits stumps he's out not dead ball

Post by: Manormanic on March 04, 2013, 09:07:53 PM: actually, given he did sometimes hit em with his hand (though mostly the trailing knee) that might have been right sometimes...

We will just have to see how Finn resolves his current problem!

Post by: neilcounter on March 05, 2013, 05:08:38 PM: I thought a free hit was only awarded for a front or back foot violation, so I would assume not.
