I have played with the Current Out but called it Connect out :P<br/><br/>We also had chances 3 or 5 or 7 chances.If u miss hitting the ball with the bat ,it is counted as a chance. We had consecutive and non-consecutive chances :) I follow ur Blog Aditya whenever I can.

I had no idea that these rules were so universal. We should appeal to the ICC to get them included in the T20. <br/><br/>one-hand-pitch-catch is my favorite :) Wow.

I think "current" run out was the post popular..<br/>I guess these are some unwritten rules of gully cricket (atleast in India).<br/><br/>A few other "specialities" of our street cricket are:<br/>- Having a "joker" in case of odd number of people. (who ever plays bad gets to be the joker)<br/>- Have 3 stones for 3 imaginary wickets. The bowler, keeper and the batsman decide whether the ball hit the imaginary wickets. This always led to fights.<br/>- 1-dic, 2-dic, and 3-dic if the ball hits the compound of nearby house, far house or goes to the end of the road respectively. PK, we had those rules too.
