2 batsmen on 94 runs. 7 runs to win with 3 balls left. No extras and overthrows given by the fielding side. Both score 100 not out. How?

That leaves one on 101. He said 100 not out.

A leg bye involved?

 
nick2020 2020-04-05 11:45:17 

Hm a leg bye is an extra.

Puzzling.

Batsman A hits a 6. 100.
Batsman A hits it up in the air going for another 6 and out caught. Men cross.

Broad bowls to Blackwood, and its a 4 straight down the ground.
Last ball of the over Blackwood on 98. Broad bowls and Blackwood edges this one past the slips and they scamper for 2 quick runs. 3 rd century for Blackwood this series.

West Indies need 1 run win win in the last over. stokes to bowl the last over to Russell on 94. Stokes runs in and Bowls, Russell smokes it back 2 miles above head head for 6. West Indies win and both batsmen end up with a Century

The question to me is how did both batsmen make 100. It is not stated that this is the last over. The game ends when Russell hits a 6 which also puts both batsmen at 100.

camos 2020-04-05 22:41:34 

If they ran 3 and one short, would the strike change?
