Bro my friend is playing cricket he was batting when ball hits on his pads umpire give notout good decision but batter picked up the ball and he give to bowler and fielder appeal please tell me what is this (out ) OR (NOT OUT )
Not out.
The ball is dead.
If the ball is dead , i mean , not moving , then the batsman is notout. And if the ball is still in play, i mean, moving, especially towards the stumps and the batsman stops or pushes the ball with hands he is given out. If he kicks the ball he is not out
The laws of cricket are a set of rules set up by The Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) which describe the laws of cricket global, to ensure equality and equity. The MCC retains the copyright in the laws of the game. Only the MCC may change the laws. Although currently this would normally only be done after discussions with the game’s global governing body the International Cricket Council (ICC). Cricket is one of the few sports for which the governing principles are referred to as ‘Laws’ rather than as ‘Rules’ or ‘Regulations’.
Yes MCC holds all rights.
