are statistic-mad. Most cricket clubs have historical records going back fordecades listing such golden nuggets as the highest 10 th wicket partnership inSecond Grade, or the most partnership stands by an individual in a seasonin B4 Grade. Therefore, this information will probably be required by theclub for its end of season statistics.RememberWhen a batter ‘retires out’ the full partnership details are recorded as forany fall of wicket.When a batter ‘retires not out’, the wicket has not fallen so the partnershipis split (see page 40).Handy hintsPartnership minutes are relatively easy to work out. If it is the firstwicket partnership, then it is simply the difference between the start ofplay and the time the first wicket fell. After that, it is the differencebetween the starting time of the later of the two batters and the timethe wicket fell.In the example shown, if thesecond wicket falls at 10.53,regardless of whether it isFreeman or Parker that gets out,the partnership minutes will be 10.53 minus 10.24 (the time Parkercame in) — in other words — 29 minutes.The longer a partnership continues, the more complicated the timing canbecome due to breaks in play. That is why it is much easier to recordprogressive minutes for each batter on your running sheet. That way, whena wicket falls, you can simply take the progressive total minutes of the laterbatter at the end of the previous over, and add the minutes from the startof the current over to the wicket to get the partnership minutes.CatchesIf a substitute fielder (not to be confused with a substitute player — seepage 66) takes a catch, you must still write in that fielder’s name, but put(sub) above or beside it to identify that it was a substitute.60Queensland Cricket Scorers Association
If the wicket-keeper took the catch, write (wk) above or beside the keeper’sname. This is useful information for working out trophy winners at the end ofthe season, but is also useful if the team has changed keepers during theinnings, as it helps identify the new player that has come into that positionfor later statistical purposes.Run outs – batter with a runnerIf a batter is injured during the match, they may have another player run forthem, and this player is called a runner, for obvious reasons. In thesesituations, you need to concentrate and watch the batters and runners veryclosely:• It can be confusing when the injured batter makes a shot and stays inhis ground and the non-striker runs. You might start watching thefielders, waiting for a run out. Instead, you need to watch the nonstrikerand the runner to count the number of runs completed.• When there are runners on the field, there is often confusion resultingin run outs, so be ready.• If the injured batter is on strike, and the wickets are broken at thekeeper’s end, you must watch carefully to determine if the injuredbatter or the runner has been given out. These two cases are scoreddifferently.Runner given outThe runner is subject to the run out laws as if they are the batter. If therunner, in attempting a run from either the striker’s or non-striker’s end,does not make ground, the injured batter will be run out. Record the run outagainst the injured batter in the book as normal, ignoring the involvement ofthe runner. Remember, any completed runs or sundries are recorded as witha normal run out.Injured batter given outWhen an injured batter with a runner is on strike, their ground is only behindthe popping crease at the wicket-keeper’s end. If the injured batter makes ashot and, forgetting the presence of the runner, sets off on a run, the injuredbatter may be run out by breaking the wickets at the keeper’s end, even ifthe batter believes they have made their ground at the bowler’s end. In thiscase, record the run out against the injured batter as normal, but no runs arerecorded. Any runs or sundries completed are not scored, although penaltiesfor wides and no balls are.Queensland Cricket Scorers Association61
