Out or Not Out?
« on: December 16, 2012, 11:41:18 AM »
The opening batsman tries to smash the ball to the boundary only to sky it straight up, he then calls a run and takes 3 or 4 steps down the wicket and then stops directly under the ball. The bowler is keeping his eye on the ball and running down the wicket to catch it. Collides with the batsman and the ball hits the batsman and rolls to square leg and the batsman then continues on with his run. We appeal for obstruction and the umpire ( one of their players) gives not out.

Out. I think our under-18s had a strange case where a batsman ran and was panting really loudly towards our bowler when he skied it, and the bowler dropped it. They didn't appeal, and the guy went on to make 50, and then were told if they had appealed, he would have been given out as that apparently falls under the rules of obstruction of the field. The bowler was also a captain in one of the Scotland youth teams, so doubt he would have missed many of those opportunities! :-[

Did you let him have it?

I see you led with a sturdy unbeaten knock to make sure you sent the cheating (No Swearing Please) home with a loss!

Should be out but having been on the receiving end of that a few years back you have my sympathies!

Thinking again if he stood in way of ball with me I would have just pushed him out if way caught ball and laughed but that's me

Even better Roco you'd have fell on him for good measure having taken the catch, then trod on his foot in your size 10 spikes as you helped him up and pointed him in the general direction of the shed :)

Size 12 mate

I may have skipped and fell afterwards for good measure but it would have been purely by accident
