Cricket-Match-Special ... A forum for discussion

I haven't got him as part of a run out. I use the BBC scorecard. I'll use the cricinfo scorecard next time I do this if the BBC is not recording outs properly, but I don't want to change half way through a series.

I'll check his other numbers.

I've still got 211.

NZ first innings.

10 for a catch.
04 for two maidens.
40 for two wickets.

England first innings.

46 for 46 runs.

NZ second innings.

06 for three maidens.
20 for two catches.

England second innings.

75 for 75 runs.
10 for a fifty.
10 for a not out.

I see what it is. I've always taken it to be three catches in an innings for the bonus, not in the match.

So it should be for the match?

If that's the case, I'll change it for the next FL. Thanks for bringing it up.

Scores after the second Test (with fielding bonus for three outs in an innings but not in the match).

I wasn't expecting to still be in the lead

Hundred lead has gone though.

I might have 2 new NZ players by the time we get to 3rd test. They were the ones who let my lead slip. I'd better hope that KW is fit or I'll be down to a 4 man team, which would be careless at this late stage

That all adds to 221 I think

I am really not at all sure ...perhaps it is for the innings only ? No matter , as long as we are consistent , all good.

Apologies for haggling over the figures anyway but I was just puzzled as to why I had a different calculation. Ironic as I don't usually even bother working out the figures but had too much time on my hands the other day

So it does! I'll add 10/20 onto the scores.

I add them up in my head. I'll start to double check with a calculator.

I think three catches in a match feels unremarkable, maybe that's why I assumed it was in an innings. The rules don't specify, but given it doesn't say innings I should have assumed match.

it is 3 catches for the match

Update, with an extra ten for Stokes or 20 if he's your captain.

interesting, not as far behind as I'd thought I may be

Now Anderson's out, so I could be down to 3 unless Kane is back. Will be 4 regardless, every bowler I've picked has picked up a niggle.

this is going to be very tight, I think. Bairstow has crept into a few teams

no pressure on getting the scoring right, Arthur
