Solution
Here are four situations in which runs are added to the team total but not the individual batsman's total:
- Byes: When the ball passes the batsmen without touching their bat or body, and the batsman runs, the runs are added to the team's score but not to the batsman's total.
- Leg Byes: If the ball strikes the batsman's body (instead of the bat) and they run, the runs are added to the team's score as leg byes but not to the batsman's total.
- No-ball: Runs scored off a no-ball (without an actual delivery) are added to the team's total, but runs made by batsmen during the delivery are added as extras rather than to the batsman's total.
- Wides: If the bowler delivers a wide ball, any runs scored (including those made by the batsmen while running) are added to the team's total as wides rather than the individual batsman's score.
