7.2 The last batter in can continue to bat with a runner until the final wicket has been take

score a total of 2 runs
7.5 If you hit the back wall (behind the bowler) but the ball touches the ground before hitting
the wall, four runs are scored, and the batters swap ends
7.6 If you hit the back wall (behind the bowler) without the ball touching the ground, the
batter is out, but also scores six runs

8.2 Everyone on the fielding team must bowl one ‘over’ consisting of four balls (overarm or
underarm).
8.3 After every over, fielders rotate
8.4 If the bowler bows the ball and the batter is unable to reach it, this is classed as a ‘wide’
and three runs will be awarded, with no extra delivery
8.5 If the ball bounces more than once, or arrives at the batter above waist height without
bouncing, this is a ‘no ball’ and three runs will be awarded with no extra delivery
8.6 The final over must consist of four legal balls. For every wide or no ball three runs will be
awarded and the ball must be bowled again
