So going by what you said the score should be 84/0 and that extra run should only be classified as a run at the end of the inning. How many times have you heard the commentator say and the top score was extras.

The ICC says that extras are SUNDRIES ( NOT RUNS) and are added to the total score......... :whistle:

WRONG ....extras are SCORE!!!!! and runs are SCORE ........together they make up innings SCORE.

So how come a wide and a no ball not only go into the extras column but also go against the bowlers name yet a bye and a leg bye only go into the extras column?

Because they are deemed to be a bowlers fault.........byes and leg byes are deemed to be the wicketkeepers fault, but doesn't have any figures to penalize..

P.S. I think this argument is totally irrelevant to the original argument..... :P

Paddy Power has the result as bye (s) / leg bye (s).

Hollywood has the bracket with the 's' missing hence the confusion.

Back to the Topic. The market heading says 'First ball of the match'. Nowhere does it say how many runs after the first ball. There were 4 leg byes after the first ball.

Wait...so the ball hits the pad - it's a leg-bye, the batsmen RUN. Do you know what that's called? A run. How can it be called a 'score' :lol: the only thing that's the SCORE is the cumulative runs total(normal runs AND extras). I didn't check up any ICC rules/regulations but in colloquial terms there are a number of ways to score runs and they include wides, no-balls etc - EXTRAS.

Runs completed off a bye or leg bye, including boundaries, are added to the extras tally of the batting team but they are not credited against the bowler. In order for a leg bye to be awarded, the umpire must deem that the batsman either attempted to play a stroke or tried to avoid being hit by the ball.

Thanks for admitting the commentator says top SCORE. That is what we have tried to get through to you.....it wasn't said .......top runs

For the same reason that when the batsmen cross at a walk .......its not called"a walk" :P

Its not called to a run its called an extra......or leg bye......the batsman may not Have to RUN if it goes straight to the boundary..........hence 4 extras NOT RUNS.
