Love to see the standard of cricket in that "T20 international" match
Speaking of, I'd like to introduce you to South African Evangelical Christian Same-*** Married Leg Spinning All Rounder-ing, South Africa Captaining Saudi Arabian Shill, Dane van Niekerk.

Dane is a boy name, tbf. Maybe that's where they went wrong.

Just want to confirm this:
If a batsman comes in at #11, and is on strike. He faces his first ball, the umpire calls
no ball... He hits it to cow corner. The call is 'two'. Whilst he turns around to start the 2nd run, he notices the fielder already picked up the ball. His partner (let's call him #10) is already half-way down the pitch coming at him. #11 stands his ground at the non-striker's end. The throw comes in at the striker's end. The keeper whips off the bails. #10 is out.
What is #11's strike rate?

That's what I thought also. But I stumbled upon an old scorecard from 20 years ago that clearly showed a #11 batsmen left not out on 1*(0).

Off the back of listening to the BBL in the car last night, got in this morning to hear an interview on a station I don’t hshslly listen to with none other than Curtly Ambrose.
Took me ages to work out who tf it was because I don’t think I’d ever heard him speak before.
If it gets put up on the statuon’s website later I’ll post a link to it. Was pretty good in a lighthearted way.

Must have either changed or that was an error, because no-balls should count as balls-faced

I'll have to check it out in the literature someplace

Probably the scorers at that game weren't too sure about that. Or maybe there was one scorer that day, because in the rules, it says that there should always be two scorers and they should always correspond
I see that it was played in Dhaka.
