START SWINGING.Ī wide is literally when you bowl the ball wide. The only way you can get out on a no ball is by run-out. There's a few other ways to get a no ball, like bowling over the batsman's waist without bouncing. They can do this in a few ways, namely, no balls, wides, byes and leg-byes.Ī no ball is when a bowler oversteps the line he can bowl from, so the ball has to be retaken and the batting team gets 1 run. The bowling team can also give away runs.
Because you hit the boundary, all you get is 4 from the boundary, and the 2 you ran isn't counted. Say you hit it along the floor to the boundary, and while it's rolling there you've run twice between wickets. NOTE: If you get a boundary, it doesn't matter how many times you ran, you only get the runs of the boundary. If they can clear the boundary without the ball bouncing though, then that's 6 runs! If the batsmen can hit the ball as far as the boundary, they get runs! If they can get the ball to the boundary and the ball bounced before it got there, that's 4 runs. The boundary of the field is indicated by a long rope going around the entire field. So if you run from wicket to wicket 3 times, hey, that's 3 runs! They can do this as many times as they can before the other teams gets the ball back and can get them out. The main way to get runs is to literally 'run' between the wickets, so one batsmen runs to one end and the other runs to the other end. You can get runs in quite a few different ways.
