  I was having a pint with an old SA test umpire , Syd MIllar , onFriday Foz and I put your poser to him.   He says the batsmancould be at the boundary rope and the umpire can still deem him notout.  If the umpires are in consultation and don't see the batsmanleave the crease and they inform the fielding captain that it was abump ball , the guy would just have to walk all the way back to thecentre again!

   Old Syd stood in plenty of 1st class matches both in SA and England and knows his stuff mate!

Fozzy,
 
I'd say that you handled it as well as possible. The young lad obviously made things more awkward for you by beginning to go, but the umpire is there for a reason and you stuck to you guns. Well done and have a gold star!!
 
Shame the opposition skipper didn't speak up sooner if he thought it wasn't out!!

this actually happened in a game I umpired.
 
I was standing at the bowlers end when a young bat hit the ball back to the bowler who caught it. The team appealed, my first instinct was that it was a bump ball and I went to confirm this by going to talk to square leg umpire, in the meantime the bowler got the hump that the young lad didn't walk and gave him some grief. This made the young lad start to walk and he got to the edge of the square but the other bat called him back becuase I had not given a decision yet. heated discussion ensued! The other Umpire also thought it was bump ball so when I returned I spoke to the bowler and told him Both Umpires thought it was not out. He then claimed that the lad had given himself out by walking. ( I was unsure on this point as to what stage he would have given himself out as he had barely reached the edge of the square)
 
I resolved this by talking to the fielding captain and explaining that I and the other Umpire thought the bat was not out, however he had walked but I thought that was becuase of the pressure put on him by the bowler and not becuase he was out - in that case would the skipper be happy for him to carry on batting. He was fine with that and the game resumed, (later the skipper told me he din't think he was out either!)
 
My question is - When is a batsman deemed to have given himself out
and secondly Did I handle the situation correctly?
 
What made this worse for me was that I was the bowling sides Umpire in this 3rd X1 league match! The lads didn't hold a grudge though.

Is it going to move into the Fun & Games Section. I'll start and not waste much time. We can't afford to delay this thread anymore. Sorry Slogger.

I'll start of with an easy one: How many runs and centuries has Mohammed Yousuf made this year?
