|
A batsman shall be considered to be out of his ground unless his bat or
some part of his person is grounded behind the popping crease at that
end.
|
(a) If only one batsman is within a ground
(i) it is his ground.
(ii) it remains his ground even if he is later joined there by the other
batsman.
(b) If both batsmen are in the same ground and one of them subsequently
leaves it, (a) (i) above applies.
(c) If there is no batsman in either ground, then each ground belongs to
whichever of the batsmen is nearer to it, or, if the batsmen are level,
to whichever was nearer to it immediately prior to their drawing level.
(d) If a ground belongs to one batsman then, unless there is a striker
with a runner, the other ground belongs to the other batsman
irrespective of his position.
(e) When a batsman with a runner is striker, his ground is always that
at the wicket-keeper's end. However, (a), (b), (c) and (d) above will
still apply, but only to the runner and the non-striker, so that that
ground will also belong to either the non-striker or the runner, as the
case may be.
|
The non-striker, when standing at the bowler's end, should be positioned
on the opposite side of the wicket to that from which the ball is being
delivered, unless a request to do otherwise is granted by the umpire.
