Well I'm not sure but I think its called a dead ball and you have to re-bowl that ball. Or your just lucky and you got 4 runs out of it.

In a game of cricket, there are 12 players per side. But only 11 players can bat and/or bowl. The 12th player, usually called "12th man" is just a substitute player. He can only field.\n\nScoring:\n6 runs : If the ball crosses the boundary rope directly without touching the ground it is a sixer\n4 runs : If the ball crosses the boundary rope after pitching in the ground it is a boundary\n1,2,3.. runs can be run before the fielder picks the ball and hits the stumps.\nIf the ball missed the stumps and rolls away, the batsmen can run again. This is called overthrow.\nThe other ways of runs\n1 run for a noball and wide\nlegbyes and byes\n5 runs if the ball hits the fielding side helmet, kept behind the keeper

From a delivery straight from the bowler you can hit as many times as you can trying to keep the ball away from the wickets or drive it towards the boundaries.But if you hit the ball and it is touched by a fielder you cannot hit it again as he throws it back at the wickets.

The umpire is wrong.  The runner on third base will return to the bag. The runner from 2nd was called out. The hitter is credited with a base hit, and he is safe at first.\nPlay stops.  2 outs, 2 on base, next hitter please.

Depends on how the umpire views it, per Rule 6.05(h):\n\n6.05 A batter is out when-\n\n(h) After hitting or bunting a fair ball, his bat hits the ball a second time in fair territory. The ball is dead and no runners may advance. If the batter runner drops his bat and the ball rolls against the bat in fair territory and, in the umpire's judgment, there was no intention to interfere with the course of the ball, the ball is alive and in play; If a bat breaks and part of it is in fair territory and is hit by a batted ball or part of it hits a runner or fielder, play shall continue and no interference called. If batted ball hits part of broken bat in foul territory, it is a foul ball. If a whole bat is thrown into fair territory and interferes with a defensive player attempting to make a play, interference shall be called, whether intentional or not. In cases where the batting helmet is accidently hit with a batted or thrown ball, the ball remains in play the same as if it has not hit the helmet. If a batted ball strikes a batting helmet or any other object foreign to the natural ground while on foul territory, it is a foul ball and the ball is dead. If, in the umpire's judgment, there is intent on the part of a baserunner to interfere with a batted or thrown ball by dropping the helmet or throwing it at the ball, then the runner would be out, the ball dead and runners would return to last base legally touched.

If your opponent hits your ball first it would be a foul , ball in hand for you. There would be no second shot.

First point, disagree. Not everybody knows how to slide properly. Even if they do, every time you slide into second, possible injury comes into play for the fielder and the runner.\n\nSecond point, umps already do. They make sure the player touches the bag, before they call him out.

Batsman A faces the second last delivery. He hits the ball for a six, which is saved by the fielder in the deep. The fielder is just to lazy to stop the ball by his hand, and stops by his hat. Batsman A has already ran a run, and is on the opposite side. The batsman gets 6 runs, 1 he ran, 5 for penalty! Batsman A completes century. Now Batsman B hits a six on the last ball, thereby making his century and winning the match.\n\nNow I want to ask you-who do you think will get the man of the match?

It depends if you are hitting alot of topspin on the ball it will most likely go over but if you hit alot of back spin on the ball it will bounce on your side if you hit it flat it depends on how hard you hit the ball

In a vague sense. \n\nIn its simplest form: \n\nThere are two teams. One team field two batsmen at one time, while to opposite team field and one member bowls. If the batsman hits the ball then both batsmen run from one end to the other. \n\nIf the bowler gets out on of the batsmen then he is replaced by another member of the batting team until all members of the batting team are out. \n\nThen the team who were bowling take their turn at batting.\n\nThere are loads of additional rules, but thats a summary of the basics.\n\nBig rules can be found here --> http://www.therulesofcricket.co.uk/

Technically, if they call the game over then it must remain over. You can reverse a call but not once the game has ended. Imagine going back to the Hurricanes and OSU championship and reversing the interference call, thats not legal now. In the words of Yogi Berra, "It aint over, til its over"....So when its over its over. Its like digging up a dead person. You cant bring them back to life. Those umps suck !

Caught outis the most common way of getting out. \n\nA batter is out caught when a fielder catches the ball directly off the bat, before it has hit the ground. \n\nThe ball doesn't have to come directly off the bat though. \n\nIt can deflect from the pad on to the bat or from the bat on to the pad and still be caught, so long as the fielder takes the ball on the full. \n\nAlso if the ball hits the batter on the hand, below the wrist, then you can still be out caught. \n\nBut if the ball hits below the wrist of one hand which is not in contact with the bat, then it's not out.\n\nAnd you can't be given out caught off a no-ball. \n\nWhen a bowler takes a catch off their own bowling, the batsman is out caught and bowled. \n\nAnd when a wicketkeeper takes the catch the batter is out caught behind. \n\nIf the ball gets caught in a batter's pads and a fielder removes it and attempts to claim a catch, the umpire should give the batsman "not out" as the ball is a "dead ball".

Sorry for the long answer but these are the entire rules according to the official MCC laws of cricket.  They are quite detailed.\n\n\nLBW\nLaw 36 (Leg before wicket)\n\n1. Out LBW\nThe striker is out LBW in the circumstances set out below.\n(a)The bowler delivers a ball, not being a No ball\n\nand (b) the ball, if it is not intercepted full pitch, pitches in line between wicket and wicket or on the off side of the striker's wicket\n\nand (c) the ball not having previously touched his bat, the striker intercepts the ball, either full pitch or after pitching, with any part of his person\n\nand (d) the point of impact, even if above the level of the bails\neither (i) is between wicket and wicket\nor (ii) is either between wicket and wicket or outside the line of the off stump, if the striker has made no genuine attempt to play the ball with his bat\n\nand (e) but for the interception, the ball would have hit the wicket.\n\n2. Interception of the ball\n(a) In assessing points (c), (d) and (e) in 1 above, only the first interception is to be considered.\n\n(b) In assessing point (e) in 1 above, it is to be assumed that the path of the ball before interception would have continued after interception, irrespective of whether the ball might have pitched subsequently or not.\n\n3. Off side of wicket\nThe off side of the striker's wicket shall be determined by the striker's stance at the moment the ball comes into play for that delivery.\n\n\nNO BALL\nLaw 24 (No ball)\n1. Mode of delivery\n(a) The umpire shall ascertain whether the bowler intends to bowl right handed or left handed, over or round the wicket, and shall so inform the striker.\nIt is unfair if the bowler fails to notify the umpire of a change in his mode of delivery. In this case the umpire shall call and signal No ball.\n\n(b) Underarm bowling shall not be permitted except by special agreement before the match.\n\n2. Fair delivery - the arm\nFor a delivery to be fair in respect of the arm the ball must not be thrown. See 3 below.\nAlthough it is the primary responsibility of the striker's end umpire to ensure the fairness of a delivery in this respect, there is nothing in this Law to debar the bowler's end umpire from calling and signalling No ball if he considers that the ball has been thrown.\n(a) If, in the opinion of either umpire, the ball has been thrown, he shall\n(i) call and signal No ball.\n(ii) caution the bowler, when the ball is dead. This caution shall apply throughout the innings.\n(iii) inform the other umpire, the batsmen at the wicket, the captain of the fielding side and, as soon as practicable, the captain of the batting side of what has occurred.\n\n(b) If either umpire considers that after such caution a further delivery by the same bowler in that innings is thrown, the umpire concerned shall repeat the procedure set out in (a) above, indicating to the bowler that this is a final warning. This warning shall also apply throughout the innings.\n\n(c) If either umpire considers that a further delivery by the same bowler in that innings is thrown,\n(i) the umpire concerned shall call and signal No ball. When the ball is dead he shall inform the other umpire, the batsmen at the wicket and, as soon as practicable, the captain of the batting side of what has occurred.\n(ii) the umpire at the bowler's end shall direct the captain of the fielding side to take the bowler off forthwith. The over shall be completed by another bowler, who shall neither have bowled the previous over nor be allowed to bowl the next over. \nThe bowler thus taken off shall not bowl again in that innings.\n(iii) the umpires together shall report the occurrence as soon as possible to the Executive of the fielding side and any Governing Body responsible for the match, who shall take such action as is considered appropriate against the captain and bowler concerned.\n\n3. Definition of fair delivery - the arm\nA ball is fairly delivered in respect of the arm if, o

This happens when the baseball player has the option of getting the out in multiple places.  For example, a ball is hit to the short stop and there was a man on first.  In this case, the short stop could throw the ball to second or first base and get the out.

Cricket-a game unfamiliar to many Americans, is a summer sport popular in Australaia, the Indian Subcontinent, Southern Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, the West Indies and Britain. It is a game which requires precision in timing, skill, discipline and patience. Though cricket isn't always a spectacular showpiece, basic knowledge of the game will make it more enjoyable. \n     Cricket is played with two teams of eleven, each with two umpires (referees) on an oval field. The size of the field varies, but generally has a diameter of around 200 metres. A cricket bat is oblong shaped with a skinny handle. The bat in length is around 90 centimetres, or up to your waistline. A cricket ball is made of cork and coated with leather, and is then stitched up. A ball weighs around 10 ounces. \n     In the middle of the field is what is known as a pitch. A pitch is a hard, flat strip of dry ground around 18 metres long. Two batsman are at the pitch at a time, both at different ends, with one facing the delivery of the ball from the bowler. The bowler runs up to the pitch where he bowls the ball overarm but releases the ball before he reaches the crease, which is a white line painted on the pitch. If the bowler oversteps the line, there is a one run penalty. \n     Teams score by getting runs. A run is completed when a batsman hits the ball and then runs to the other end of the cricket pitch, getting past the crease. The non striking batsman has to run to the opposite end as well. The batsman can run as many times as they like, but the batsmen can get out if their stumps are hit with the ball by a fielder before the batsman reaches the crease. The stumps are three sticks of equal size measuring around 90 centimetres tall with 5 centimetres separating them. Bails (small pieces of wood) are balanced on top of the stumps. \n     Other ways runs can be scored are by hitting boundaries. Boundaries are scored when the ball is hit and touches or goes past the outer edge of the field. Four runs are scored when the batsmen hits the ball and the ball hits the ground before reaching the outer edge of the boundary, and six runs are scored when the ball is hit and goes over the boundary without touching the ground. Runs can also be scored in the following ways: No balls, when the bowler oversteps the crease, bowls in a dangerous manner or incorrectly, or if the ball rises above the batsmans head. A no ball is worth one run. A wide is scored when the ball goes outside the line of the pitch before coming in line with the batsman. This is also worth one run. A leg bye is scored when the ball hits the batsman but doesnt contact his bat and then proceeds to run. A bye is scored when the batsman runs without the ball coming into into contact with the batsman or his bat, and then runs. \n     The fielding team can get the batsman out in several ways, by 1) catching him out. This is done when the batsman hits the ball with his bat and a fielder catches the ball on the full. By 2) bowling him out. This happens when the bowler bowls the ball and the ball strikes the batsmans stumps or bails. By 3) leg before wicket, or LBW. This happens when the bowler bowls it and the stumps being hit by the ball are prevented when the batsmans leg gets in the way. By 4) stumped, when the batsman comes forward to hit the hit but steps out of his crease, misses the ball and the fielder behind the stumps collects the ball hits the stumps before the batsman gets back behind his crease. By 5) run out, when the batsman attempts to score a run but has his stumps hit by the ball before he reaches the other crease. By 6) Hit wicket, when the batsman hits his own stumps while trying to hit the ball.By 7) retired, when the batsman voluntarily decides to finish his innings, and 8)timed out, when the next batsman doesnt appear on the pitch within two minutes of the last batsman getting out. \n     Each team has one inning of 50 overs. An over is a series of 6 bowls by a bowler. Each bowle
