Bizarre Bowling Figures

[Neil Pickup]

A couple of unusual bowling analyses from East Devon over the last few weeks... can you work out how they happened?

0.1-0-1-2

1-1-1-1

 

[open365]

First one he got a stumping of a wide.

Second, he bowled a maiden first over then got a stumping of a wide first ball of his next which ended the game.

 

[Chubb]

Reckon the second the guy bowled a maiden, then had the last man stumped off a wide first ball of his second over?

EDIT Damn spent too much time phrasing that.

 

[Neil Pickup]

First one was a stumping off a wide. Second could've worked like that but didn't!

 

[open365]

The scorer was writting something in binary and happened to cut across the bowling analysis section?

 

[adharcric]

Haha.

One of my life's ambitions is to get the 2nd set of figures.

Or, better still, 2-2-2-2.

I've got nfi how the second one works out, unless it involved him bowling part of an over for an injured player. ie. Player 1 bowls two dot balls and gets injured. The player in question then bowls 4 dot balls, and gets attributed with a maiden (though I would think that that wouldn't happen). Then he comes back on later, bowls two balls, the first one concedes a run, and the second ball gets a wicket to finish off the innings. Doesn't seem to make sense scoring wise, but it's the only thing I could think of.

I think this happened somewhere - it definaltely could - 0-0-8-0 (bowler comes on for his first over bowls a no ball which costs two, it goes for six and it wins the match)

For that second let of figures... did the bowler bowl a wicket maiden in his first over, then bowl a no-ball off the first ball of a second which ultimately won the game for the opposition? Only thing I can think of.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Wicket maiden, and then a run out from the first ball of the second over, which was also a no-ball.

Gah, of course. How silly of me.

I bowled 2-0-36-0 this year. Some lad en route to 164* in a school seconds game (out of a total of 218 all out) just kept clearing the boundary. TBH I've bowled much worse than that game several times this year.

That's not bizarre, that's just bad.

 

[PhoenixFire]

I've had a spell of 2-0-37-0 against some Durham 15s opener or something like that, doesn't bother me that much itbt.

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Also 1-0-21-0 last year in a cup semi-final, but that was seriously poor bowling. I began with a double bouncer that got no-balled and was hit for four, followed by a waist high full toss which disappeared over some buildings for six. Then I bowled my stock legbreak, which was smashed back over my head for another six.

I should have had a stumping actually as well, but the keeper was probably expecting another maximum.

 

[PhoenixFire]

I got hit for 3 6s and a 4 in an over against Calverly once, ironically I should have clean bowled him first ball of the over through a defensive.
