Kit

NBCC will provide coloured playing tops for the NBCC team. Please let us know your size and we will do our best to provide you with the right one BUT we don’t have sweaters so consider a base layer, or even a sweater underneath. If possible wear black bottoms, or feel free to head over to our store and treat yourself.

You will be able to buy your coloured top for £30 if you feel so inclined with all the funds going into to supporting the club.

If you do need to borrow equipment or kit please check our our virtual kit bag and let us know in advance what you need.

Playing Conditions

  1. Two new adult white will be available, one per innings, thanks to Ferran Irfan and FYK IT-SERVICES
  2. A tie will result in a Super Over. If that is a tie we will have a Bowl Out with 3 bowlers bowling 2 balls each at stumps.
  3. Leg side wides will be at the discretion of the umpire.
  4. We don’t need to see any ‘Mankads’ at this level BUT we all need to adopt best practice so umpires/bowlers/captains are asked to point out to a batter if they are a potential ‘victim’ for the sole purpose of helping them avoid it in future games.

T20 Rules

  • Individual bowlers are only allowed to bowl for a total of four overs during a Twenty20 game.
  • Bowling teams are required to complete their 20 overs within 75 minutes. A bonus of six runs is given to the batting team if the bowling side has not begun its twentieth over before their 75 minutes is up. 
  • An umpire may award one of the team’s five bonus runs if he feels the opposition is needlessly wasting time. 
  • Only five fielders are allowed to stand on the leg side of the batsman at any one time. Similarly, only two fielders are allowed to stand outside of the inner circle in the first six overs of play. This number increases to five fielders in the remaining 14 overs.
  • Once a wicket has fallen, the following batsman must take up his position at the wicket or bowler’s end within 90 seconds. If they are unable to do so, they could potentially be disqualified from batting in the match.
  • The ‘Free Hit’ serves to penalise a bowler if he delivers a no-ball. The Free Hit is awarded following such an infringement and basically means that the batsman will not be given out for that delivery, unless he is run out.
