I like how the fielder throws is hands like "yea I know it looked goofy, but it's a catch, right?"
I think that's actually not him showing up anyone, but simply doing the "how's that" to the ump, which is a typical way cricket handles out calls and such. The ump doesn't just call outs, you have to actually say "how's that" and then the ump will give their decision. So I think that's what he was doing there rather than showboating or anything. It's called an appeal in cricket
lol yea, in both highlights the guys are like "okay refs, go for it"
@@jakehr3 no lmao you don’t have to ask the umpires for a decision
@@henrymccoy2306 i thought you do in cricket? hence the big shout on an LBW
@@henrymccoy2306 way to prove you know nothing about cricket 😭😭😂😂😂
This rule was changed a few years back because these catches often go semi-viral and are good for promoting the game. I always thought they took it too far. If you're out of bounds before and after a jump, you're out of bounds. But we all know the REAL crime here is the boundary being like 20 fucken metres in from the crowd
its a huge ground, surely its to have some more six's for entertainment purposes
Yeah what happens if there are obstructions just beyond the boundary? Do those stewards who were sat nearby have a duty to get out of the way of a fielder attempting this? If not, can I station the other batsmen "warming up" in the vicinity to catch the ball while grounded and score the 6/4 runs?
@@DanielHarveyDyer something something 5 penalty runs something something obstructing the fiels
@@DanielHarveyDyer In the good old days, the boundary was the crowd fence, same as baseball, and once it's in the crowd it's in the crowd. I can understand why they changed to bringing it a couple of metres in for safety reasons but this is taking the piss.
@@danielhay3772 and fielders kept injuring themselves sliding into the fence. Plus fielders were too close to the crowd and had things thrown at them. Having the boundary rope about 2-3 metres is the best.
I want to watch someone do a full lap of the field doing this 😂
😂
Wtfffff 😂😂😂
Without obscure rules, cricket just wouldn’t be cricket. This player spent time learning the rule and took advantage of it. Also, this was a technically difficult play that required both excellent coordination and forethought. Good for him.
Agreed. I think the rule should stay.
Whatever coordination or technicality was employed, the FACT remains, the ball travelled beyond a set boundary and so cannot be allowed as a catch. Also the fielder didn't hover around in the air but actually stepped outside the boundary and then returned to take catch.
@@2244khan Exactly 💯 This is illegal. ICC needs to modify this rule. Otherwise more area outside of the boundary should be cleared so that a player can run outside of the boundary to push the ball inside just as he did.
@@empire9044 corret👏.
@@2244khan well clearly it is allowed and tbh it's funny you're getting so mad
Cool play, but I think I’d rather the rule be that once he touches his feet out of bounds, he is considered OB or grounded or whatever until he to touches his feet back in bounds. So tossing it up, falling out, coming back in, then catching it, if that makes sense
Agreed. It would still make for acrobatic plays, arguably more so since you have to throw it higher, get your footing, and return back in bounds. I’d equate it to being out of bound in basketball. When you’re already out you can’t just jump up and be considered in bounds, but you can jump FROM in bounds to save a ball
That would be a sick play to see for sure
Well when he caught the ball then threw it back while out of bounds he wasn't touching the ground when he threw the ball back in bounds! He and the other example jumped as they contacted the ball back in bounds!
Think out of bounds should be like it is in basketball and football. Until you establish that you’re back in bounds, you’re out.
Joywave?
I would prefer that the rule be that once you make contact with the ground outside the boundary, you are officially out of bounds too. Its much clearer. You can still do a leaping catch over the boundary, or just bat it back inside for someone to scoop up. But when you go outside of the field of play in almost every other sport, you have to come back inside before you can interact with the game again. It just makes sense.
I concur. If you leave the ground from out of bounds the play is dead when you touch it because you are now ineligible. It'd be different if he had touched inbound batted it up, came back inbound and they touch the ball.
I agree, it's a bit like basketball or ultimate Frisbee then
Agreed
I concur with you .... infact I would have given it not out if I was at the helms.
That's just not cricket mate, until the ball hits the ground its in play
I like this rule. As long as first contact is within the boundary it is alway interesting to watch players juggle ball outside the boundary without touching the ground when they touch ball. This isn’t easy and certainly this doesn’t necessarily give batsman disadvantage as the first contact is inside.
Excellent breakdown... you've nailed it. Awesome to see an American who has such a rich knowledge of non-US sports and is so entertaining. Here in Australia we love watching your baseball and American football - much respect :)
Baseball is all about hitting full tosses.. catching with gloves..no involvement of pitches or weather..so basically a rudimentary not too skillful sport..
@@himanshugambhir7665 excuse me, baseball might be one of the hardest sports in the world😂😂nice try though
baseball is the best man
@@himanshugambhir7665 baseball is basically cricket, except the balls never hit the pitch and they(the baseball balls) swing a lot.
@@whois_dev9314 American, but I will admit as a cricket fan that it is hard. The balls might be full toss but I've seen baseball matches where the ball just seems to do crazy amount of movement, making it equally as hard for the batsman to hit.
I love how you got Moylan to do the voice over haha
Thank you for explaining this. I'm sitting here like "how did they get such clear audio?!"
Love your videos, as an Australian I really appreciate how well you are explaining the rules of the game to your audience who would probably have no idea what is going on most of the time.
I agree I appreciate this man and the content he uploads
Getting Americans into global sports is always fun IMO. Like how much they're getting into rugby these days. And cricket is the 2nd most popular sport on earth and actually has a history of being played in the US (until baseball took over), so yeah it'd be fun to have a good US cricket team in the world cup or something. They'd probably be good at it.
I'm sure a video like this plays to me as an American like explaining what is (and isn't) a catch in American football might be to an Aussie.
It's always fun learning about the nuances of other sports. One could do a whole video comparing how the sidelines work in every sport, and I'm sure it could be entertaining.
You're very kind for using the phrase "most of the time"
To be fair, the actual umpires and players didn't seem to totally get it at first.
I listened to an announcer on this and he said that with the current rule, the fielder could technically throw the ball up 300 times and it would still count so long as the feet were never on the ground with the toss up and the final catch was inbounds.
True, but it would be physically difficult to time this right multiple times. In the frame by frame slow motion replay, he was literally a single frame away from touching the ground and ball at the start of his jump and just before his landing. So if he is a fraction of a second out with his timing, then he would end up grounded with the ball.
Sure but what's the advantage? He starts in bounds and has to finish in bounds, while never being out of bounds. It's a great rule.
I love that your question is “is it fun?” That’s a fantastic attitude!
I love how you make us all feel normal for not naturally knowing "legal speak", thank you Jomboy!
Its funny he said legal speak because technically cricket has laws not rules .
It's Law 19.5.2 not rule
Once he's grounded once out of bounds, he shouldn't be allowed to "reset" or "unground" out of bounds. You should get only one jumping/ungrounded opportunity to deliver the ball back into the field of play. That seems like the "spirit" of the rule.
I’m inclined to agree. The wording of the original rule seems to technically allow for this interpretation, but I doubt it was the intention. I feel like a lot of cricketers will have watched this play and said, “wait… we’re allowed to do that??”
@@nichj487 the MCC have confirmed that the current interpretation is correct and intended. They reworded the law when a similar one was incorrectly given not out.
yeah i think it should be like volleyball and you can only touch it once
No, the rule should be changed. If you catch the ball within the boundary, and are controlling the ball and grounded within the boundary, it should be out even if you run out of the boundary. thus eliminating stuff like this.
@@SeenGod do you mean in general? That would make it a very different game - catches are quite often juggled.
I also think the comparison with volleyball is interesting because there the position of the players doesn't matter. They can run out of bounds as far as they like before touching the ball
YES!!!! He was thinking really quickly and it's ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
Omg, I have been thinking about this for years... 😁😁 Thanks for clearing that up.
Yet another cricket breakdown this is so golden Don't ever stop doing these Jomboy!!!!
except anything that involves india; them Star Sports India is uber-Aggressive when it comes to copyright
But you've seen me, you know me........
Remember Curly J.
I adore this rule, because it's so hilarious to watch people attempt the rule, that when they do, they deserve it.....but I'm also a Brisbane Heat fan, so I'll take any small win I can get.
They are few and far between aren't they.
Yeah, or something like "can't continue as in play if player's last grounding touch originated out of bounds"
Still loved the out haha
@@jjcrump74 Yeah I think it should be like basketball or football where, after you step out of bounds, you are out of bounds, and any ball you touch is out of bounds until you "reestablish" by putting a foot down in bounds.
I think the Heat were due a decision to go their way after that Thunder ball change on the last over
@@leavemanycredits agree with you. Not least because you could go hot potatoing on indefinitely, jump and bat, all the way up the stairs, out of the stadium, onto the plane to Cape Canaveral and into space if you wanted.
For the people saying the boundary is too far in. The grounds in Australia are absolutely massive!!! If that rope goes back where it should technically be that would be like around 92-97 meters out.
Since I’m a fan of football and baseball, I think it’s a catch. Even if you catch the ball in the field to play and still go out of bounds or over the wall or end up in the stands like a baseball player because your momentum is carrying you so much, it still counts as a catch as long as he made the catch within the field to play first. You don’t have to stop in the field of play for it to count. Your momentum taking you out doesn’t cancel it. Catch catch catch, all day long.
Cricket is not baseball
Baseball is different man
@@prataptheanimefan5279 Wow stating the obvious here thanx🤣
literally dont' care about sports at all and love these videos lol so entertaining
Nerd!
What does your indifference to sports have to do with this cricket video?
@JMacSD I hate to break it to you but cricket is a part of sports…
Sports are great, seeing dedication is always inspiring
What if he found a really nice shell, some fishing line and a small Buddha statue when he left the field of play? :-)
The in house Aussie providing voiceover 😂 great job mr. Moylan
Lol, this guys commentary is awesome 😅💚
I like how you narrated the whole scene😂
I only understand cricket rules from what you've explained in past videos, and my first instinct was catch. I like the rule, and I actually think it's pretty clear. He was last grounded in bounds when he first touched the ball, and never grounded on or outside the boundary, so it's a catch. I like the rule. Juggling is hard. Juggling while jumping is harder. That's sports, baby!
Besides keep the ball on the ground and you wont be out
Provided your feet were in the field of play before you caught the ball ok. If you were out of bounds and jumped in the like this, should not be out. But it’s ok by the current rules.
That's what I was thinking
Very nicely put! Agreed. It makes for some even more athletic dismissals in the future, and it's a whole heap of fun.
I thought it'd be given, but being able to run out of play, turn, jump to knock it back over the boundary, then run in and catch it makes a mockery of fielding catches.
The rule needs changing so the fielder has to knock it towards a team mate on the field if he cannot catch within the boundary.
I like the rule as is, but would add one modification: I would put a touch limit of two deliberate touches beyond the boundary. It allows for athletic, creative play while disallowing the play to get ridiculous.
Additionally, I'd like to add that Peter Moylan is the best Australian voice artist that I've ever heard working for Jomboy Media, and also the best former Braves member to work for JM.
I think you're saying that the player can touch the ball twice while the ball is beyond the boundary. If that's not exactly what you mean then this is moot.
But the problem with a rule like that would be the 'beyond the boundary' part.
Like if he jumps in the air and touches it a third time as he's crossing back over you would need something like soccer's goal line/offside technology to determine where the ball is while in mid-air. It adds a whole extra level of complication.
Keep in mind, their first touch has to be inside the boundary. They can’t just take the ball from super far outside of the country back in, as they have to touch it inside the boundary first.
I would say if youd want to do that, then probably have him at least need to get a foot inbounds running... I mean touch the inbounds and you can make a jump like he did whole out of bounds. Or if that's too easy, make it so he'd have to redive for the ball(in this situation) in order to throw it up (or back inbounds to a teammate) again. When teammates are prepared to help as well, it could really lead to sick plays
@@TBH_Inc the first touch can also be made in the air correct? Above the out of bounds as long as it's thrown before rejoining the earth?
@@nolanmcleod2619 As long as both feet are inside the field of play when they jump, the first touch can be made in the air outside the field of play.
And the ball is released before they land.
If you are interested in this catch, there are plenty of great but simpler looking catches to look up where they throw it to a teammate before going out of bounds like described in the video later on, and some where they just throw it once then catch it themself inside bounds
This is my biggest question on cricket now wow finally someone speaks.
Lived in aus for 2 years. Playing cricket stopping for tea and BBQ and finishing next weekend was eye opening. There are literal out door stainless steel kitchens by the pitch. Great times.
In several sports, that involve an "Out of Bounds" line, the rule is similar: if your last contact was OOB, you cannot touch the ball. It makes it interesting to disregard this (assuming you first touched it in bounds), but it doesn't feel correct for some reason.
Yeah my mother wanted my to play baseball as a child. I'm 24 now. I'm watching this video thinking "wow, this is stupid". I would walk away from the sport if this happened while I was on the field.
I made a comment the other day about how I would watch cricket if you did a breakdown and what the actual hell lol. Did not realize this was here 😅
Hey great video buddy, very detailed and well explained. Hats off...
I like the weird boundary rules in Cricket, they make for some different acrobatics and hand-eye coordination, and the other benefit is that you avoid Baseball's weird park-construction shenanigans like the Green Monster at Fenway Park. Also, wall collisions are dangerous, and the boundary system makes Cricket much safer.
Actually in early 90s the fence used to be the boundary. Over the fence it's a six. They brought boundary line because of the exact reason u mentioned. Players were getting hurt while fielding
Weird park dimensions make baseball fun
I'm for player safety but then again a play like Bo Jackson running along the fence like friggin' Spider Man is amazing.
There are no walls in cricket though so I'm not sure how relevant this is.
But then fans can't sit as close to the game.
$$$
I mean, gotta love the player's reaction. That shrug says "No idea, but I didn't have a choice."
I like your funny commentary 😂 & also your analysis of Cricket moments. I think if you start a separate Cricket Analysis channel to give breakdowns of different match results & moments in different matches it could surely do well just on its own, perhaps half a million subscribers easily.
I don't watch cricket but your commentary made me sub to you.
Troy Johnson of the Wellington Firebirds did this twice last week against the Northern Brave. He actually flubbed the first catch by stepping over the boundary for 6, but then the exact same thing happened a few overs later and he made the catch for the wicket.
I appreciate his knowledge of the existing rules and his athleticism in pulling it off. In my personal opinion, securing a catch near the boundary should be very much like securing a catch in the NFL. Secure the catch in the field of play with two feet in bounds, and if your momentum takes you "out" or over the line as it were after securing the catch- which you must maintain control of, obviously- then that's a catch. That's how I would write the rule.
Australian Rules footys the same, you can jump up in bounds, mark (grab, catch) the ball & fall out of bounds. As long as youve controlled the ball, not juggled it etc it's a legal mark.
nah if your momentum carries it across the boundary its a 6. its not just out of bounds, its directly linked to scoring
This doesn't happen all that often and it isn't how the boundary was marked until a couple of decades ago, so people didn't really invisage a situation like this. If it starts to happen too much, they'll probably change the rules because it does seem a bit ridiculous
No, this is so amazingly well thought out and so unlikely to happen frequently that it should absolutely be allowed lmao.
Obscure rules/rulings are fun and knowing them should help you if you are athletic and heads up enough to take advantage. I love that this is a thing and I hope there won't ever be any sort of over clarification that imparts new limitations thereby robbing us of these moments.
I love how the two ball boys in both clips seem to be the same kids in the same position (definitely the same shirts), almost as much as I love that Jomboy is doing cricket breakdowns.
Awesome analysis! :)
I think the rule should be changed to say that you need to be grounded in the field of play before you can contact the ball again after you’ve tossed the ball in the air. You need to have your bat grounded behind the crease to avoid a run out. If you’re out of the playing area and you’ve grounded your feet you couldn’t catch the ball if it’s still above the field of play.
I NEVER thought I'd see the day where Jomboy covered the BBL. Love it lol
A match in New Zealand (Northern Brave v Wellington Firebirds) not too long ago had the same fielder attempt a catch like this twice, perhaps a couple overs apart. First one he had the ball while a foot was on the ground past the rope, but the second was good.
The ones I have seen that are similar the catcher catches the ball throws it up before going out of bounds then gets back in bounds before it drops and re catches it while in bounds, which makes sense to me, this seems …
This should be considered out.. it brings so much charm to spectacle value to cricket.. and tests presence of mind and very precise timing of players...
i think a big reason for this is the boundaries are relatively new in the game of cricket. It use to be the fence was the boundary until a fielder slid into one and got injured. So for the majority of crickets life time, this was never an issue
Fielders simply didn't have any athleticism whatsover until relatively recently either.
I like how you momentarily used "points" instead of "runs" to make it easier to understand for the US audience, when "runs" is one of the only terms used in both baseball and cricket 🤣
Hey, they both use "pitch" too, just completely different meaning.
@@Bantimus outs and probably franks too
@@Bantimus also both use innings
@@sambl1ncoe this one is fun because baseball uses "inning" for a single inning, or "innings" for multiple, yet cricket is just plain "innings" for both.
Well, at least he didn't say something silly like "one of the only"
Need more like this ❤️
That’s out and brilliantly executed IMHO. 😊
I think if you step out of bounds you can smack it/hit it once, but you are now considered "out of bounds" so like Renshaw, need a teammate to get it. I'm only imagining a guy running around the entire field while jumping and bouncing the ball over and over again without that rule.
No, that would be allowed. The first contact with the ball must be inside the boundary, or 'from' inside the boundary. Any subsequent touch must be either inside the boundary or off the ground - but can start from 'beyond the boundary'. A catch must finally be completed inside the boundary - but you could still prevent a boundary by throwing it back in from the air outside the boundary after multiple touches.
So if you really wanted to you could juggle and jump around outside the boundary. But you'll look like an idiot when you eventually get one jump wrong and it's a 6.
@@richjhart That's exactly what they said, they know it's allowed. They're just saying there's an absurd possibility of continual jump throwing, without a rule being put in place. The first sentence is them saying what they think it should be.
@@richjhartthat’s what they said
@@richo6537 it might be what they meant, it's not what they said. They wrote 'you can', not 'should' or something similar
Except there's no difference between what Neser and Renshaw did in that regard.
Once outside the boundary they both jump and/throw the ball once. Only difference is Neser regathers his own throw.
I think in some leagues you are consider grounded out if you touch out until such time as you touch back in. Which means you need to re-establish in bounds before you touch the ball that second time.
I was watching this live and couldnt bealive it. Crazy game
I love Peter moylan being featured to keep the authentic Australian accent 😆
I love these cricket breakdowns.
I think if when you touch the ball, if that last part of the ground you’ve touched was beyond the boundary, the ball should be ruled over the boundary. It still allows players to continue with the play after they step out of bounds, but first they have get back in bounds.
i agree
The ball needs to contact ground either physically or through an objects ie. Human extension to be counted as "out of boundary". If the ball is still in the air, it hasnt touched ground yet, and if the player touches the ball while not touching the ground, the ball is still technically in the air. This kind of play can only work a few meters from boundary. You cant be a player waiting outside boundary and then jump, touch, and catch inside boundary. The player needs to be INSIDE the boundary when the ball leaves the bowlers hand. So this kind of play is certainly acceptable as its linited to only a few meters beyond boundary. Not only that but most if not all cricket pitches have a fence within 5m of boundary so you cannt really play this way much further out.
I agree based on Law 19.5.1. Laws19.5.1 and 19.5.2 appear to contradict each other in what is regarded grounded beyond the boundary.
In practical sense this would be a nightmare for umpires without a third umpire to administer. Determining from at least 50 meters away if made first contact within the boundary any subsequent contact beyond the boundary was in air is ludicrous.
IMO It should only count while on a back of a kanagroo and juggling a cold beer (unless it's a XXXX) without spilling a drop as well. 🤣
Nobody cares what you 'think'. The rules are specifically worded and defined. Either you follow them, or change them afterwards... but that was an OUT as per the rules at that time.
Awesome…. Without cameras and technology, it’s very difficult to judge this is out… good one
Mate it's out. But kudos to talk about it for so long 😂
Since I've been learning cricket through your rules explanations, I knew it was a catch because of the jump when he was out of bounds to toss it back in play so he could catch it.
I knew the rule, but it wasn't clear at full speed that he had executed the timing of his jump catch and re-throw all whilst he was in the air. It was only 100% clear from the frame by frame slow motion replay, as he was literally a single frame away from touching the ground and ball at the start of his jump and just before his landing. As he has demonstrated, it is clearly possible to do this, but I'd expect a lot of players to mess up the timing. I think it would be difficult for players to do this on a consistent basis, unless they specifically practiced it.
I was watching this game live, as a Sydney fan. Unfortunately it's a miraculous catch (which cost us the game!).
2:28 the pause before that "no fucking sense" had me dying 💀
Lol love the dubbin at 00:54
Jomboy single-handedly bringing Cricket 🏏 to the US sports media and I'm all for it...
I think it should either be that once his feet hit the ground out of bounds he can no longer make a catch, or that he can't touch the ball while having touched his feet out until he touches back inside the boundary. So for the second case he could toss it up while in bounds, run out of bounds, and then step back in to make the catch.
Nicely explained.
Yep, 100%.
I’m Australian.
Whilst his actions after taking the catch were weird, he did catch it whilst running to the boundary.
It’s really rare a catch will happen so close to the boundary, and I wouldn’t know how to answer if he leapt and caught it outside of the boundary.
But he caught it inside, just.
He wasn't in control of his own movement at that point though.
I think it’s pretty cool, kinda goofy but I like it. I would say no catch because he had already touched out of bounds but if it’s allowed good on him.
This is a domestic league so they can kind of experiment around technicality of a rule but in a international tournament the stakes being higher they should make the legality about this absolutely clear.
That rule has always been in place, it's just that with T20, and the BBL in particular, we're seeing it more and more. Clarity was definitely needed, but play on, I say. Good catch in every sense
Level 1 umpire/referee here. When thinking about this rule (Law), you can't just see it in isolation. The rules (Laws) are designed to provide a balance between bat and ball. Otherwise, it just turns into a slogfest (which would actually end up being boring). The batters get plenty of breaks, with the idea that if there is doubt, the benefit should go to the batter. The rule that Neser knew is one that brings a little swing of that balance back to the fielding side. I'm all for it, as it provides not only an extra element of entertainment, but also more of the balance between the bat and ball. And yes, as others have said, the boundary should be further back (again, this benefits the batting side). Balance is key.
As an Aussie trying to make sense of some of the stupid rules of out great game. I would take the NFL rule the catch is complete when the ball is touched with both feet inside the boundary and the control of the is maintained to the ground or the player takes 2 steps with the ball secured. A player as outside the boundary is considered out of play. If a ball touches a player out of play player the ball is considered over the boundary. A player must have both feet grounded inside the boundary to be considered in play. As for the 6 runs the ball is considered grounded with a completed catch, if the player then runs outside the boundary with the ball 4 runs shall be awared.
As an Aussie who is a big cricket fan, 100% should have not been out, the way the rule is currently makes for some interesting catches, but in my mind is unintuitive and doesn't make a lot of sense. The player should have to re-enter the field of play or else he should be considered out of the field of play and this should be a 6. Weird that the rule changes based on where the player first makes contact with the ball.
Seems like a pretty concise rule, to me. If the ball, or a fielder touching the ball, is in contact with the boundary (the outside area), then that's your 6 points. Anything else is fair game. The more you design game rules around specific objectives, and the less you limit how players get to those objectives, the more entertaining the game will be to spectate. Within a framework of reasonable safety for everyone involved, of course.
Rule is good. Good quick thinking by the player all credit to him.
It used to be that you had to come back into the field of play before you touch the ball again.
They must have changed it, or it is a t20 specific rule.
I think it's fun. In baseball there are similar rules where players can jump and reach over the barriers, and fumble with the ball on the way down and catch it and have it count.
It takes athleticism to make this kind of catch and I think it's in the spirit of the sport, fun to watch, and so it should count and leave the rule it is.
I think the rule is fun as is, but it'd be more intense to watch a player chuck it back in and have a teammate chase it down.
that actually happens more often than this version
@@buzzerede good to know
Same thing happened during India vs NZ ODIs. But unfortunately while doing it, NZ fielders foot touch the ground while his hand was touching it to throw the ball onto the air, while he was outside the boundary line, so presence of mind was excellent and it was new thing in cricket but it was six unfortunately for NZ.
As a batsman, you can get run out or stumped just for being in the air at the exact time, even if you're within the crease with either bat or feet (or body) just milliseconds before and after the runout/stumping.
So this fielding rule seems quite fair esp as it requires quite a lot of presence of mind, agility, coordination and practise to pull off such a fielding stunt during a match. So if anyone thinks it's unfair let them either make a change in the rule or let it rest at is.
As someone who has never watched a single game of cricket or knows any rules besides the ones mentioned in this video and previous ones, I like this rule. I also like the idea that he can jump and throw it to a teammate, but can’t pass it back to himself once leaving the playing area similar to football rules.
It's the dumbest rule.
"but can’t pass it back to himself once leaving the playing area similar to football rules" but..that's exactly what he did. He caught it, threw it in the air, stepped out of bounds, juggled it (legally), stepped back into bounds, and finished the catch.
@@tomb816 i downvoted that guy. I won't let him get away with that either
@@tomb816 I'm saying, with further explanation, if he got one more touch out of bounds while jumping to throw it to a teammate in bounds that would allow for some interesting teamwork. So, initial touch in bounds, one touch where he throws it from out of bounds.
What counts as completing the catch in Cricket? If he catches it inbounds and takes 4-5 steps but ends up over the boundry it doesnt count? How long do you have to hold the ball for the catch to count? I thought it was a catch before and after hearing the rule.
You have to be in complete control of the ball, meaning that you should be able to hold the ball and stop within the boundary.
A catch is only complete once the fielder has complete control over the ball and their own movement. Also unlike baseball, umpires technically don't make calls on outs until they're appealed by the fielder, so if you ran over or touched the boundary before having complete control and appealing it'd be a six.
G'day there mate, as a cricket aficionado myself goofy or not it is 100% definitely out. There are loads of rules like this for backyard and street cricket. For example, in many school playgrounds, you can make a catch if the ball bounces off a tree, a wall, a roof, or similar structure so long as you take the catch with one hand. In numerous indoor cricket leagues you can make one handed catches off the surrounding nets. Cricket has some wired rules. The basic idea here is since his feet never touched the ground while he was touching the ball he never took the catch from out of bounds. From an official perspective the critical part of the situation is the the catch started with the player being being inside the boundary and finished with him inside the boundary. He never touched the ball while also touching the ground outside the boundary.
This is not that different to your American baseball where players will climb up vertical walls to snatch the ball before it goes over the boundary fence.
The Laws of Cricket as written by the official body, The MCC, do not cover picnic / backyard / indoor games.
I think that is a fair play. A stroke of genius. Makes me think of baseball where outfielders jump over the fence and catch a potential home run mid air. When they land out of bounds, I feel the catch should not count.
yep
I think thats not a catch since the second time he “caught it” and threw it back up was out if bounds. Even if he was in the air, his feet touched the out of bounds area. Kinda like when a safety tip drills the ball back to another corner for an int is ok, but having that safety chill out of bounds then jump isnt
Totally agree
You mean you think they should change the laws so that it's not a catch? Since under the current laws, it's definitely a catch
@@richjhart yes. I also watched the 5 minute video. At the time I paused and commented with what I thought the play wouldve been called like what Jom asked us to do 20 seconds in
@@ItsJacobyay He didn't "catch" it the second time. He parried it with no retention. There's a (admittedly pernickety) difference.
@@cricketexplained8526 even so my stance is the same. His feet were out of bounds when they left the ground and he touched the ball again so I think that shouldnt be allowed
Love the cricket stuff. Okay I think they will say that since he actually "cupped" or "established full control of the ball" whilst beyond the boundary, they will rule it a 6. Perhaps if he had just swatted at it, or sort of volleyball'ed it back across the boundary, the call could have gone his way. Let's see what actually happened now!! xD If I'm right I want an interview with Jomboy Media!! xD
WELP so much for that xD
The call did go his way
It was out because of two reasons: His FIRST touch of the ball was in the field of play AND he never touched the ball and the ground over the line at the same time - when he touched the ball outside of the field of play he was airborne.
@@amireallythatgrumpy6508 yea i'm glad it went his way actually, looked legit af to me
As an Aussie growing up playing cricket from a young age....you can juggle the ball as long as it doesn’t touch the ground, but the boundary line skews this circumstance
Brilliant fielding, seriously switched on
I feel like once you step out of bounds then you've established yourself out of bounds and shouldn't be able to touch the ball until you establish yourself in bounds again by stepping in bounds. My dad's actually John Cricket, I'll let him know to change the rule.
John Cricket is a hack, it was Jacob Cricket who did all the hard work codifying this sport. John was a dreamer, Jacob was the practical man.
@@poulanthrope More propaganda like it came straight from the mouths of the "We're only getting 10 million each from the will" Cricket kids themselves. Keep pushing that narrative, you greedy literal bastards, see how much Uncle Jacob leaves behind when all the blow he's spent his money on seizes his heart during one of his frequent visits with Thai sex workers!
Jomboy, the situation you’re talking about at 4:27 actually happened in the BBL a couple of years ago. Ben Laughlin threw the ball to Jake Weatherald to complete one of the best catches of all time! czcams.com/video/s6nbXzamsXM/video.html
That is awesome!!!
Fun play, right call, and a good rule!
You are funny as hell !!!😂
It didn't look like his momentum was really going to carry him out of bounds. Seems riskier to have a catch with yourself than to just hit the ground and safely stay away from the barrier.
Which video are you watching? His momentum is definitely carrying him over.
More than likely if he goes to ground he is still going to dive/slide/roll into the boundary rope which still results in a 6.
Starting in bounds, jumping out of bounds, catching in bounds = YES. Starting out of bounds, jumping out of bounds, catching in bounds = NO. That's my gut instinct.
That seems right to me, but I could hardly know less about the detailed rules of cricket
That's literally the rule.
I think if I was the batting team, it was not a catch for sure, but if I was the fielding team, then that was a great catch, for sure. The same rule applies to the team I'm rooting for of course...
Waiting for you to do Australian Baseball League content :D
I love this rule. To be honest never thought of it being weird because I grew up with it, it seems normal to me, and is tons of fun.
This is as impressive as Joe Burrow catching his own pass for a first down.
He also caught his own pass for a TD in high school.
more amazing to hear an american explain all this so well without giving up
You are correct on Neser's name pronunciation, well at least that's how our aussie commentators say it.
