Just a bit of fun (click thru for duck action) https://freakytrigger.co.uk/ft/2006/07/match-fixing-just-a-bit-of-fun-click-thru-for-duck-action Lollards in the high church of low culture Wed, 26 Jul 2006 15:26:57 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: mark sinker https://freakytrigger.co.uk/ft/2006/07/match-fixing-just-a-bit-of-fun-click-thru-for-duck-action/comment-page-1#comment-27002 Wed, 26 Jul 2006 15:26:57 +0000 https://freakytrigger.co.uk/ft/2006/07/match-fixing-just-a-bit-of-fun-click-thru-for-duck-action/#comment-27002 but with run out the first (=10th wicket) wicket would have to be a “non gamestopper” (or else not appealed quickly enough)

unless both batsmen were running for the same wicket and were equally far from it? you have to knock the bails off at the end the batsman is running for, you can’t generally get them both out with one swipe

i still favour simultaneous handling and obstruction, esp as the kiss-off to the outrageous cheating described in your story!

At least for the second of the two final wickets.

the ten ways of getting out =
*Caught
*Bowled
*LBW
Run-out
*Stumped
Handled the ball
*Timed out
*Double hit
*Hit wicket
Obstructing the field

with all of the *s i think the 10th wicket would automatically end play,

even if a second run-out was effected it would be (1xsecond) after the end of play — tho maybe not if the appeal was sluggish and the umpire hadn’t yet ruled

maybe if one player handled the ball while the other simultaneously obstructed the field!
