Reply to comment by garytyrrell in India (160/6) defeats Pakistan (159/8) on the last ball in a game for the ages by Swathe88

Here's the final over

If you're confused about the terms I've explained some in layman...

No ball = Ball went over the waist height of the batsman (in this video)

Free hit = Basically an extra life for the next ball only (batsman can hit as he wishes)

Wide = The ball was bowled far away from the batsman

I’ve had this question for a while now: I see a ton of balls that are above the batters waist, why are most not considered no balls?

if the ball bounces off the ground and goes above waist it's a fair ball... but if the bowler throws it directly as if he wanted to hit the player it's a no ball

If it bounces it can go up to the batters head, it only has to stay below the waist if it’s on the full
