Re: Question Regarding a Rule in Cricket
I am not sure I get your question.
If the fielder takes a catch and has complete posession of the ball (while he is inside the boundary line).....it does not matter what he does afterwards.....even if he subsequently throws the ball over the boundary.........the batsman is OUT.
Yeah I meant to say the fielder is inside the boundary line when he caught the ball and threw it outside the boundary line in celebration. Thanks for clarifying that he is out. I have to umpire some games in the local league and this scenario might show up one day (Plus I am unemployed these days and have time to think about these issues:)). Thanks man
