Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

A team scores 225 (all out) in 50 overs.
B team needs 1 run to win they are 225/9 in 49.5 overs
the bowler bowls the wide bowl but the batsman comes down
the wicket and he is stump…
By how many wicket the B team has won???

By 1 wicket

Wide occurred before the stumping. In the timeline of events, team B won by one wicket if mention of the victory margin is of any relevance. Simply put, team B won the match.

^ hmmmmmmmm, The ball I think is not dead and you can get out stumped, so in that case the match is a tie.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

do you expect girls to anwer too?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

ehsan bhai - Umpires are supposed to 'call wide' as soon as possible or as soon as the ball is past the stumps. So, in essence the umpire woulf have called wide ball just before the stumping. The signal for wide is made once the ball becomes dead.

It's a good question. The way it is put it assumes 'team B won' and it's only asking for a victory margin - by one wicket or not?

^ Tricky one, just like the No ball, you can get run out on it.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

team B wins by zero wickets ....... same as if somone gets run out gettin a second one though one was enough to win the match ............

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Has any team won a match by zero wickets in any scenario?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

^ I dont think so because usually a sane batsmen will try to knock the ball down for single or palce it rather than go out of the crease to hit it out of the ground :D

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

interesting question.. i say B by 1 wicket...
--even after the umpire calls after the ball is dead... it has occured b4 stumping.. but wait a min... stumping should give bowler the wicket he earned.. uhmm.. i think i wana go with TEAM B by 0 wicket...

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Since the number of wickets are equal for both teams, neither team can win on the basis of wickets. Hence we can say Team B won by 1 run.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

but at the end of the day.. it doesn't matter who won or loss but whether or not you had fun.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

^ Hmm spoken like a true champ?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

haha ya.. either that or a sore loser (on some occasions).

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Well if a loser can say that they had fun i wouldnt say theyre sore losers. Just that angoor khattay hain. :p

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Team B would win by 9 wickets....Since the wide would occur before the stumping, making team B's score 226, hence negating the stumping....

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

i dont think the stumping wud be negated....
it wud still be a stumping and the batsman wud be out....

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

The one run penalty for a wide ball is INSTANTANOUS. Team B won.

Guy1, do you have the authenticated answer or did you scramble this quiz out of your butt?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Team B has already lost 9 wickets, so no way they can win by 9 wickets :smiley: … I think funguy is right.
