  1. Only if the umpire is Sastry.


  2. No, cause once 1 batsman is out the ball cannot be used again to make the other batsman out too.

  3. yes

  4. Yes. It is possible to deliver out TWINS in a single delivery but not in cricket.

  5. never

  6. No , never . Since after the first one is out (in any way) the ball is declared DEAD by default.

    For Eg if a player is caught and at the same time the non striker is made run out the player caught has to walk off unless its a no-ball wherin the non -striker will be declared out.

  7. No.  Not Possible in Cricket!!!!. Yes in baseball

  8. sometimes.

  9. No , one is supposed to remain not out as per cricket rules.

  10. yes it can be

  11. No!!!

    When one player gets out,then the ball is not in play until next batsman comes takes his stance.

  12. In Cricket there is no way 2 players can be out on a delivery.

    As soon as the first player is out, the ball is dead. The only way

    I can think off is the time-out rule, but technically no ball is

    bowled on a timeout. So it is at your discretion to call 2 outs

    on a single delivery in such instances.

  13. no

  14. naaaaaa..... Its out of cricket rules book!

  15. Yes, on one single 'legal' delivery only.

    One gets run out on a no ball and second gets out on the next.

  16. NEVER... its impossible in an official cricket match.

    can happen in street cricket / gully cricket where ya create ur own rules.

  17. No. As soon as the first batsman is out, the ball is classed as "dead". As such the other batsman cannot be out to a dead ball.  :)

  18. no,its not possible!!

  19. No. Kinney is spot on - the ball is dead when the first is dismissed

  20. I'm not sure if there is a rule that says that they can't be.

    I could imagine a situation something like this:

    The batsman pulls back to strike the ball and tips his own wickets (batsman 1 is out), he then follows through and hits the ball directly forward. The opposing batsman leaves his crease to make a run and the ball strikes his wickets (or is picked up by a fielder and he is run out). That could be a possible way for both batsman to end up out.

    EDIT - Okay, it looks like Kinney's got more knowledge than I do. I didn't know about the dead balls. Thanks

  21. yes

    if one bats man is out and the next  one doesn't reach the crease to bat within two minutes ,then he is also declared as time out.

  22. Never heard of it happen.
