END OF EVERY OVER cricket

cricket - An over is usually six legal balls (No Balls and wides do not count as balls in the over) and at the end of six balls the over is finished. The Umpire will call “over” and the players will move to their new positions. If the Umpire has miscounted and there have only been five balls or if he continues to seven deliveries just keep scoring and record what has happened – whether it be five or seven etc.
As laid down in Law Four IT IS NOT YOUR JOB to correct what the Umpire has ruled. If one Umpire continually awards the wrong number of deliveries in an over his partner will usually alert him to the fact and you may discreetly mention it to him at a suitable break.
If no runs were scored off the bowler during the over it is called a MAIDEN OVER and you can record this by joining your dots together with a large M – this makes adding up the maidens per bowler easier at the end of the day.
Maidens are important to bowlers and you need to keep a clear record – some scorers write their M in red ink so it really stands out.
If the bowler took a wicket in a Maiden over you may join the dots together in a large W to denote a wicket maiden.
In the bottom right hand corner of the bowler’s analysis record his cumulative figures e.g. 1-15 means that he has taken one wicket so far and 15 runs have been scored off his bowling. Add each wicket and all runs every over and ALWAYS confirm these figures with your fellow scorer. This is important and will save you having balancing problems. If you are scoring on your own it is important to balance your book regularly and we will discuss balancing later in the manual.
Record the total runs in the overs and runs columns usually at the right of your page. Some scorers also record the number of bowler who bowled the over as well- it is useful if your bowlers are restricted to a certain number of overs and it is also useful in balancing your book.
