Law 37 provides that a batsman is dismissed if they deliberately obstruct or distract the fielding team, such as by changing their course while running between the wickets to deflect a throw, or calling out to prevent a catch being taken. Only once in Test cricket has a batsman been dismissed obstructing the field, in Thinking the ball would hit the stumps, Hutton hit the ball away, preventing the wicketkeeper from completing a catch. Six batsmen have been dismissed obstructing the field in one-day internationals; four of the six being from Pakistan.
Amarnath is also one of the three players to have been dismissed handled the ball in an ODI. Probably the most obscure and certainly the rarest form of dismissal is Law 34, hit the ball twice. This states that a batsman is out if the ball, while in play, strikes any part of their person or is struck by the bat and then, before being touched by the fielder, the batsman deliberately hits the ball with the bat or any part of their person.
No batsman has ever been dismissed hit the ball twice in any form of international cricket. Only a handful of instances at first-class level, mainly deep in the early historical days of the game, exist. The threat of dismissal seems to be enough to prevent anyone trying it on. If a batter happens to hit the approaching ball twice, he is considered out. The first hit is when the ball touches the bat.
The second hit is when the batsman intentionally touches the ball with his body or bat after the first hit. In his attempt to stop the ball from hitting the wicket, the batsman is allowed to prevent it with his bat or body but is not allowed to use his hand to do so. Not as common as the other forms of dismissal timed out are given when the striker fails to reach his crease within a time limit.
This is decided by the umpire on an appeal from the fielding team. In a normal scenario, the batsmen have three minutes to return to their respective creases in One Day International and Test Cricket formats. The time limit for T20 Internationals has been reserved for two minutes.
If the striker fails to resume his play after break within that time, then also he can be considered as out. Tags: cricket. Rahul Rajput July 9, Rahul Rajput.
