It's a new rule by then. If a Number Eleven hits a 6, he gets 7.

It went: 777777 777777 477

Duh,he could have ran 7.

I'd have said "alot of no-balls", but that makes nearly as much sense.

It actually makes far more sense, seeing as no-balls don't go to the batsman.

"Cricket statisticians introduce first-chance averages"

And here endeth the thread.

All others are nowhere near the realms of fantasy compared to this.

13. Runs resulting from a No ball – how scored
The one run penalty for a No ball shall be scored as a No ball extra. If other penalty runs have been awarded to either side, these shall be scored as in Law 42.17 (Penalty runs). Any runs completed by the batsmen or a boundary allowance shall be credited to the striker if the ball has been struck by the bat; otherwise they also shall be scored as No ball extras.

 

[Barney Rubble]

Yes, I know that - in which case he'd still only get 6 from each ball.....

It's to intice rabbits to hit big, as everyone likes that (unless they're Australian rabbits)

Graeme Smith attacks Graeme Smith

Having fallen out with every other test captain Graeme Smith came to blows with himself yesterday.
After exchanging several heated words throughout the recent test things seemed to come to a head after Smith called himself through for a suicidal single and was run out. After pushing & shoving himself repeatedly Smith threw several punches & had to be restrained.
After stumps a still visibly angry Smith told reporters, “Who the hell do I think I am? There was never a single there, but I just wouldn’t admit it. I can’t believe I punched myself, is that any way for a captain to behave? I've lost whatever respect I had for Graeme Smith after that. I shall give evidence against myself to the referee if called. I’m an absolute disgrace.”
Micky Arthur, however, was determined to stand by his captain. He commented, “Yes, yes I know. But it’s him or Kallis, so what’re you gonna do?”
