EXTRA HALF HOUR

Date: 5th June 2016

Rain delays in the last hour cause confusion!

On Saturday 4th June a few matches were affected by thundery showers late in the second innings.

The possibility of such occurrence was discussed at the pre-season meeting but clearly the message wasn't received or understood by all.

The Laws of Cricket state (16.7) - If there is an interruption in play during the last hour ...... one over shall be deducted for every complete 3 minutes of time lost

Therefore the additional half hour maximum for such delays does not apply once the last hour has started.
