I can't find on any of the pages a good discussion of exactly what distinguishes bowling from throwing. It would be nice to mention that more in depth in this article or the main bowling article.

I've added such a discussion to bowling (cricket). -dmmaus 01:39, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

"The umpire signals a no ball by holding one arm out horizontally." I was always told that only the right arm signals a no ball, and that just holding the left arm is not an umpire's signal.


[edit] Scoring when ball is no ball

when the ball is no ball.... the batsman hits it in the air..... the catch is taken..... they run and completes a single.....

now my doubt.... for a no ball the batsman gets the runs he scored as if it were a normal ball.... so if it was a normal ball when catch is taken he gets no runs......

so if it is a no ball does the same happen....

ie does the batting team get only one run for the no ball in this case and the same batsman takes strike....

or does the batting team get two runs....... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Raufismail (talk • contribs) 08:26, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
