^ :rotfl:

guy1… if its a real one… i wud love to know the ans.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

but wat abt the stump captain and funguy… think abt this…
lets say saqi comes back and he plays til the world cup … and now, its his last game and he is 1 wicket away from breaking some record… Referees r gonna give it to him rite? so, the other team is 226/10 — so they won by 0 wickets?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

I meant 1 wicket…my bad…

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

team B got more run rate so they won by more runrate, n wide waz 1st then stump so they won 1st then they were all out

but Team B won cuz of run rate so it doesn't matter how wide was 1st or not

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Team B wins the match by 1 wicket, once the wide is called the stumping will become useless because it will be done AFTER the match is finished.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

the match is tie.
A wide is not a dead ball and you can be caught, hit wicket, stumped etc on a wide. I once bowled a wide but the batsman had already charged me and missed the ball altogether, and he was stumped. The umpire had him out. It actually happened in a tape ball match. Rules are the same for giving out.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

This decission favors Saqi.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Dumb ballay baaz. If the bowler has bowled a wide delivery then it's pointless having a swing at it, just let it go through to the keeper and the 1 run which was required will be granted. Risk free way of knocking of the run required.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

^ thank you LUC... jab is situation mein match jeetney ki advice request kareingey, to aap ko zaroor bulaeingey... but for now yeh batao who won ?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

How do you get “caught” out on a wide? Or put another way, if you play it with your bat, it can never be called a wide. Cricket 101.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

ok a spin-off question - if a batsman gets stumped on a wide ball - is the wide ball ruling valid? does the batting team get a extra ball n a run?

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

^ yes...

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Law 25.5 The ball does not become dead on the call of "wide ball'

Law 25.8 Should a Batsman be given out of a wide, the penalty for bowling it shall stand unless runs are otherwise made.

There is no argument that team B has won. The only uncertainty is how it will be recorded. I think it will be denoted that team B has won by 1 run.

I understood that the bowler overstepped while delivering the fateful ball of which Alan Donald was run out during the drawn match in the World Cup between RSA and AUS. It wasn't called though. Pity!!!

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

^^ Ok let me clarify...in a given situation if a clearly wide ball is bowled but if the ballay baz hit it out of bad judgment being caught as well, what will be the outcome?...the umpire will give him out!...cricket 101. So this is what I meant. A wide ball is a wide not a No ball or a dead ball.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Simple...team B wins by 1 wicket because the wide happend before the stumping.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

once the batsman is CAUGHT, it means he hit the ball, and that can not be given as a wide ball…

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

exactly…
Team B wins by 1 wicket as the wide happens before the stumping.

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Team B did won but not w/wickets but w/having more run rate
.

i think there r examplez where n-e team have won by run rate

Re: Difficult Question? Every one must check it!

Since no one was able to comeup with a correct answer therefore I thought of emailing an expert to get his view. I emailed Steve Lynch, the deputy editor of Wisden Cricketers' Almanack and a cricket genuis, and asked him the questrion. Here is his reply:

**Team B would win by one wicket - the match would be deemed to be over when
the wide was called, and the stumping wouldn't count

Hope this helps
