Just a thought...
Two batsmen are going for their second run and as one nears the stumps a fielder takes a pot shot at them (the stumps😉) and misses... the ball heads off towards the boundary as they succesfully complete a third run.. at the same time as the thrown ball crosses the boundary line... how many runs do they get, three, four or seven?

Originally posted by geniusI was thinking that if it was four then if the batsman have run, say, five runs and are on for a sixth and a fielder has the ball at the boundary he could just roll the ball over the line and save two runs... doesn't sound right does it?
4, i think-but i'm not sure...i've never played cricket in my puff (puff?) 😛 but there was a feilder that went to catch a ball in the air, he caught it and rolled over the line. it was counted as a 6 as the ball didn't hit the ground...
