the batting team's captain may declare the innings closed even though some of his players have not had a turn to bat: this is a tactical decision by the captain, usually because he believes his team have scored sufficient runs and need time to dismiss the opposition in their innings Marcus Callies; Wolfram R.

The decision to attempt a run is ideally made by the batter who has the better view of the ball's progress, and this is communicated by calling: usually "yes", "no" or "wait". More than one run can be scored from a single hit: hits worth one to three runs are common, but the size of the field is such that it is usually difficult to run four or more. [103] To compensate for this, hits that reach the boundary of the field are automatically awarded four runs if the ball touches the ground en route to the boundary or six runs if the ball clears the boundary without touching the ground within the boundary. In these cases the batters do not need to run. [104] Hits for five are unusual and generally rely on the help of "overthrows" by a fielder returning the ball.CPL to launch inaugural T10 tournament 'The 6ixty' in August". ESPNcricinfo .

If an odd number of runs is scored by the striker, the two batters have changed ends, and the one who was non-striker is now the striker. Only the striker can score individual runs, but all runs are added to the team's total. [103] For Michele however there are no such reservations and, in fact, she has now wiped mine away. She is quite right that slamming a professional sportsman for being competitive is ridiculous, and rather more relevant is the way that Sir Vivian has always treated her, simply as a fellow human being, and in light of that I feel just a little embarrassed about some of my past rushes to judgment concerning the Masterblaster.

Savidge was sentenced to three months for the 23 accounts and half of his suspended sentence was activated by the judge who jailed him for a total of four months. Most bowlers are considered specialists in that they are selected for the team because of their skill as a bowler, although some are all-rounders and even specialist batters bowl occasionally. The specialists bowl several times during an innings but may not bowl two overs consecutively. If the captain wants a bowler to "change ends", another bowler must temporarily fill in so that the change is not immediate. [77] Pesca, Mike (30 July 2009).

I was a little surprised to learn that Michele did not find more overt sexism than she did, but clearly there was some along the line. Less surprising is the content of the #Who? Me? #Me Too chapter which contains some striking examples of male behaviour at its worst. The former England player with the Rolls Royce is a man particularly deserving of his reputation being dismantled, but there are others as well. It is to the author’s great credit that she makes the decision to allow such reprobates to retain their anonymity. In 1844, the first-ever international match took place between what were essentially club teams, from the United States and Canada, in Toronto; Canada won. [46] [47] In 1859, a team of English players went to North America on the first overseas tour. [48] Meanwhile, the British Empire had been instrumental in spreading the game overseas and by the middle of the 19th century it had become well established in Australia, the Caribbean, British India (which includes present-day Pakistan and Bangladesh), New Zealand, North America and South Africa. [49] Focussing in this way on sexual harassment and racism might suggest that this book is dark and depressing. In a sense it has to be said that there is an element of that. Right from the start of the book a recurring theme is Savidge’s extremely strong and close relationship with her parents, especially her father but her mother too. The seismic events in the narrative are their respective deaths and the impact their passing had on their daughter. To a considerable extent this is a book about grief. One senses that writing the book was a cathartic experience for Savidge; writing it was more important for her than getting it published. There are other issues that are remembered in detail too, such as a failed pregnancy, and post-natal depression. But even when describing the darkest times, Savidge writes with a light touch and in a deliciously self-deprecating style. At one point she is asking herself why such and such a thing was done or not done before her mother’s death, then she suddenly says “And why did Geoff Boycott run out Derek Randall at Trent Bridge in 1977?”
