Fielders, Wicket-Keeping and Send-Offs Page 15 - additional information around substitute fielders, wicket-keeping and send-offs Fielders Substitute fielders Sometimes teams will play with a 12th man, who may come on to replace another player in the field. Even without a formal 12th man, some teams may use a substitute fielder if required and available. Under the new laws, the rules around substitute fielders have become a bit more complicated. Substitute fielders may not bat or bowl; however, they can wicket-keep with the consent of the umpires if they are substituting for a wicket-keeper who has been genuinely injured. No substitute fielders are permitted to replace a player who has been sent off. If the wicket-keeper is sent off, only another player from the original 11 can wicket-keep, and if a substitute fielder subsequently replaces another fielder (e.g. due to injury), that substitute still cannot wicket-keep. Any player who is replaced by a substitute for any length of time must serve a ‘penalty period’ after returning to the field, which is a period equivalent to the amount of time spent off the ground. During this ‘penalty time’, the player cannot bowl, and, if the innings ends meanwhile, the player cannot bat until the penalty time has been served, or until the player’s team has lost 5 wickets. If a substitute fielder is sent off for a set number of overs, the player they replaced cannot return until the set number of overs for the send off have been completed (see page 102). When the original player returns to the field after the send off period, they need only serve ‘penalty time’ for the time spent off the field before and after the send off overs. Watch for any fielding substitutions that might occur, and if a substitute fielder takes a catch, including as a substitute wicket-keeper, write (sub) after the name in the ‘How out’ section (see pages 43 and 66). Similarly, as previously discussed, watch for any change in wicket-keeper, so that if a replacement wicket-keeper takes a catch, it can be marked as ‘wk’, to distinguish it from any catches the same fielder may take in the field. Substitute fielders should not be confused with substitute players (see page 72). 15 Page 21 - new information on umpire send off signals to scorers Send off Under the new laws of cricket, unpires have the ability to send players off for a certain number of overs, or for the match. This will be covered further on page 102, but this section deals with the umpire signals for send-offs. We do not currently have any images available for these new signals — when they become available, they will be loaded to the Resources page of the QCSA website. The best we can do for now is to describe these new signals as they are given in the new laws. Send off for a number of overs The umpire will first put one arm out to the side of the body and raise it upDead and down balls repeatedly.

  • Cricket Scoring the First Steps
    CRICKET SCORING THE FIRST STEPS CRICKET SCORING THE FIRST STEPS This manual has been written to help introduce new scorers to basic methods of scoring and to answer some of the questions most new scorers have. We hope that anyone who reads this manual will then feel confident to score for a day’s cricket and will know the answers to some of the situations they might come across. It is written in simple language without too much reference to the Laws of Cricket but we have quoted the Law numbers on occasions so that any scorer wishing to learn more about scoring and the Laws of Cricket can then refer to them. In scoring it is important to learn to do the simple thing’s first and this manual will hopefully help you do that. A scorer has four duties which are laid down in Law FOUR of the Laws of Cricket. These are: 1. Accept The Scorer may on occasion believe a signal to be incorrect but you must always accept and record the Umpire signals as given. Remember you as Scorers are part of a team of four and you must work together with the Umpires. 2. Acknowledge Clearly and promptly acknowledge all Umpires’ signals – if necessary wave a white card or paper if the Umpires find it hard to see you. Confer with Umpires about doubtful points at intervals. 3. Record Always write neatly and clearly. 4. Check Do this frequently as detailed later. 2 Reprinted with the kind permission of the NSW Umpires' & Scorers' Association GETTING STARTED Note: You should familiarise yourself with any local rules which apply to matches played in your competition.

  • Being on the Bench Was Not a Choice That They Made
    Being-on-the-Bench: An Existential Analysis of the Substitute in Sport Abstract Being a substitute in sport appears to contradict the rationale behind being involved in that sport, especially in those sports whereby substitutes frequently remain unused or are brought on to the field of play for the final moments of that game. For the coach or manager, substitutes function as a way to improve the team achieving a particular end, namely to win the game; whether to replace an injured or tired player, to change a team’s structure or tactics, to complete a specialised manoeuvre (such as goal kicking in American football or a short corner in hockey), or to run down the clock. Whether a substitute is afforded an opportunity of playing the game appears to be directed by others; arguably if one had a choice in the matter one would chose to be on the field of play rather than off it. Nevertheless, the Existentialist position is that our situation is always inexorably one that is freely chosen. To argue that one has not freely chosen one’s position is to be ‘inauthentic’. Furthermore, to conceptualise one’s manifestation and to be treated by others as a thing ‘in-itself’ – such as a substitute - is to fall into ‘bad faith’. Culbertson (1) has already argued that elite competitive sport is an arena which promotes rather than avoids bad faith due to its constituent factors. Culbertson’s frame of reference primarily applied to sporting events that involve individuals competing in co-active, parallel competition - such as athletics, swimming or weightlifting - whereby bad faith is generated via a tacit acceptance of ever- improving and quantifiable performance.

  • Somerset Cricket League
    SOMERSET CRICKET LEAGUE A GUIDE TO THE COMMON LAWS OF CRICKET The League operates a very successful Umpires Panel for the top two divisions. These Umpires would have taken a course on the Laws of Cricket and they are likely to be members of the Somerset Association of Cricket Officials. It is likely that, in local Cricket, the hardest places to fill in a team are that of Umpire and Scorer. All Clubs should be aware of the courses that are available for both Umpires and Scorers. In order the assist those who might be called upon to stand during the season we have put together some of the most common laws of Cricket to help such a person or persons during the season. Leg before Wicket (LBW) In order to give the batsman out LBW there are four main factors that require a ”yes” answer. a) The ball must not be a “no ball” b) Did the ball pitch in line between wicket to wicket when striking the batsman’s pads or did it pitch outside the off stump? c) Was the interception part of the Striker’s dress or equipment and not the bat or the hand holding the bat? d) Was the point of impact in line between wicket and wicket? e) In the Umpire's opinion would the ball have hit the wickets? Notes i) If the ball pitches outside the line of the leg-stump it cannot be considered for LBW. ii) If no stroke is offered then the striker can be out LBW even if the interception is outside the off stump, provided the umpire is sure that the ball would have hit the wicket.
