called short, you will only record one to the striker’s total, the progressivescore and the bowler’s analysis. But remember, the batters will remain atthe end where they finished running.OverthrowsThe term ‘overthrows’ is used when a fielder picks up the ball and throws itback to the wicket-keeper or bowler, but throws it either wide or over theirhead. If the batters keep running, they add to their tally. You must watchand count these extra runs. If the batters had already run one run beforethis ‘misfield’, and then run two more, you must put down all three runs tothe striker, the total score and the bowler’s analysis.Overthrow that goes to boundaryIf the overthrow results in the ball going all the way to the boundary, theumpire will signal the boundary 4. In this case, the striker is awarded theboundary 4, plus any runs the batters had completed, and the run inprogress if the batters had crossed at the instant the fielder threw the ball.Generally the batters will have completed, or be in the process ofcompleting, only one run, but close observation is necessary. Sometimesthe umpire will help by holding up his fingers to indicate how many runs toaward the striker. If you are unsure how many runs to award, make note ofthe incident and seek clarification from the umpire at the next break.Handy hintThe umpire will ensure the correct batter is facing for the next delivery,but generally speaking, if an odd number of runs are to be recorded, thestriker will now be at the non-striker’s end, and if an even number ofruns are to be recorded, the striker will still be facing.Dead ballsThere are a number of reasons why an umpire might signal a dead ball.From a scorer’s perspective, they can be divided into two situations:28• the ball is called dead before the striker has a chance to play it• the ball is called dead after the striker has a chance to play it.Queensland Cricket Scorers Association
Before the striker has a chance to playReasons why a ball could be called dead before the striker has a chance toplay at it include:• the bowler drops the ball before delivery• the bowler ‘loses’ his run-up and fails to deliver the ball• the batter pulls away just before delivery because of a distraction• the ball does not leave the bowler’s hand for any other reason.In these cases, the umpire will signal dead ball (see Umpires signals on page20). You must acknowledge the signal, but do not record anything in thescorebook.After the striker has a chance to playReasons why a ball could be called dead after the striker has a chance to playat it include:• the batter plays the ball and a fielder is seriously hurt in fielding theball• the batter pads away the ball without playing a shot, and it runs asufficient distance to enable runs to be taken.In some cases, any runs or sundries scored before the ball is called dead willcount, and be recorded as normal runs or sundries. However, a special casearises when a striker deliberately pads away the ball or the ball deflects offthe body when the batter is not making a shot or avoiding the ball. If thebatters attempt to make a run, the umpire will not call dead ball until afterthey have completed the first run. This gives the fielding side the opportunityto run out the batters:• If a batter is run out, the wicket will stand and must be recorded as anormal wicket (see page 37).• If the run out is not effected, the umpire will signal dead ball and thebatters will return to their original ends. The run does not count, butthe delivery does. Add a dot to the batter and the bowler’s analysis.Again the umpire will signal a dead ball, and you must acknowledge thesignal. However, in these cases, the ball counts as a delivery, and must berecorded as a ball faced by the batter and added to the bowler’s analysis.Queensland Cricket Scorers Association29
