Battrick query

[Mr Popodopolous]

Hi fellow battrick users, regarding Battrick, declarations, contrived run chases and joke bowling what are the rules?

For example I've got a game whereby the opps lead by 29 after 1st Innings with tomorrow and 8 overs left. If I offered joke bowling and the opps to set a target, would this be allowed?

Cheers.

Yeah it is.

i thought you could bowl whomever you want whenever so long as the changes are made at the end of the day and its not collusion.

Well, no collusion occured, no agreement was made- of course I sent them on in any case, hoping he'd set a target of 300-350- which would have been another 230-280 runs.

It didn't quite work out like that....
