How many reasons can an extra be given for in cricket?

Question

Title says it all.

Answer 1

wide, no-balls, byes, leg-byes. no-ball(bowled around the shoulder)

Answer 2

i) Wide: If the ball moves past the batsman outside the sidelines of the popping crease

ii) No ball: If the bowler over-steps, bowls a beamer, bowls two shoulder-width bouncers; also if the fielding restrictions or any other rules are broken during the play, then the ball being bowled with that illegimacy wud be counted as No ball.

iii) Leg-bye: If runs are collected with the ball being touched by any other parts of the body of the batsmen apart from the bat and the wrists.

iv) Bye: If runs are collected with the ball being touced by neither the bat nor any part of the body of the batsmen; e.g. - overthrown, misfield by wicketkeeper when the ball didnt touch the batsmen.

Answer 3

The previously mentioned byes, leg byes, wides, no balls.

No balls are given for front foot over and wide of popping crease, a bend in the elbow exceeding 15degrees, bouncer above head or more than 2 in an over in 4/5day cricket and more than 1 an over in all one day cricket.  Also, no balls can be given for beamers above the waist from fast bowlers and above shoulders from slow bowlers.  

One everyone has missed out is penalty runs.  These are awarded in 5's for: hitting fielding helmet behind wicket keeper and ball tampering. (Think back to Pakistan a few years ago!!)

Overthrows are given to the batsman who struck the ball initially!!

Answer 4

wides, no-balls, byes, leg-byes, 5 penalty runs (ball hitting unworn helmet or dropped cap by fielder) no-ball for more than 2 fielders behind square on the leg side or for incroaching on protected ara when bowling (after 2 warnings)

Answer 5

1)  No Ball.

2)  Wide

3)  Bye

4) Leg Bye

5) Penalty runs

Answer 6

1)No ball - An umpire may call a no ball when the bowler, wicket-keeper, or fielder commits an illegal action during bowling.

2)Wide - A ball being delivered too far from the batsman to strike it, provided that no part of the batsman's body or equipment touches the ball, is known as a wide.

3)Bye -  If the ball is not struck by the batsmans' bat (or connect with any part of the batsmans' body), and the ball is adjudged a fair ball, the batsmen may run. In this case, the runs are scored as byes.

4)Leg bye - If the ball hits the batsman's body, then provided the batsman is not out leg before wicket (lbw) and the batsman either tried to avoid being hit or tried to hit the ball with the bat, the batsman may run.
