[edit] Mankading in indoor cricket

Please see the last line of the section on Run_out#Mankaded. Does it mean that you can run the non striker out even after entering the delivery stride ? But the dismissals section here seem to indicate that the rules are same in both. Tintin 03:13, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

When I played (admittedly about 10 years ago) it was pretty much open slather. You had to wait until the batsman took his guard to bowl, but anything else was fair game. You could steal a single if the bowler turned his back on the way back to his mark. I played games where someone had to hold the ball at the non-strikers wicket until the bowler had got to his mark, then give him the ball, to stop the batsmen pinching a single. Also back in my day, there was no LBW at all, unless you weren't playing a shot. --Paul 06:29, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Including Umpires in the Australian Team Listing

As Indoor Cricket Australia doesn't name Jason Rhodes as part of the Australian Extreme Men, nor should we here. I have modified it to include him as a member of the touring party, but not of the side. In2itive 01:11, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More detail in Playing Arena description

I reverted the edits made by 81.19.57.154 as I am uncertain as to why they have removed additional detail on the playing arena. In my opinion the inclusion of information on the distance the batsmen run is a necessity. If the editor has objections to the wording of the detail then perhaps they can rewrite it but retain the added detail. In2itive 14:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Too much information?

I realise that Indoor Cricket was invented in Australia, but is all the Australian current player information etc really all that necessary - the equivalent page for cricket does not have this country-specfic level of detail. Other countries that play indoor cricket could conceviably list all their players (right down to junior squads etc as well) and then we would have a huge mess.Likie 10:24, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
