The match could yet get as tense & exiting as Edgebaston (_must_get_DVD_) , quality cricket from both sides, England need to mop up the tail better than they did in Birmingham :p: (p.s. did you see Flintoff's no ball, there, which carried to the boundary and gave away 5 runs :p: :D ) |

AFAIK a no ball that goes to the boundary should be scored as 4 extras. |

If you are a real cricket nut, this is worth a listen imo.
Click the link to listen or right click and "save target as" to save it to your hard drive and listen to it later. It is Geoff Boycott talking about the state of the current game, worth a listen if you are a real cricket fan. (file size 31MB) |

Re: Cricket
It is only 4 runs the the higher score counts not both and they get an extra ball as normal with the no ball going against the bowler as normal.
5 is scored if the ball hits a helmet the fielding side are using,that's why they tend to be placed directly behind the stumps,less chance of being hit. Back to the game if we can get them out early today, I'd bat again get another 200 to 250 and declare. If the Aussies then get ahead with Giles turning it now, imagine what Warne could do on the last day. Problem is the weather forecast isn't too good for today. |
Re: Cricket
Looking out of my window (N M/cr) it doesn't look to promising, we are v overcast and drizzle, this my pan out to be a drawn game if things don't improve soon. :(

- if it was 4 runs only, the score would have been adjusted by 3 runs, not 4 ?? |

There again, when someone posting on the BBC's site mistakes "there" for "their" I'm possibly going to be a bit sceptical about the accuracy of the rest of their post...!! ;) |

It isn't a major issue - it's just the first time I recall 2 bowlers bowling no-balls which carry to the boundary, in consecutive matches :) |
