Google earth has it outside the boundary.

Boundary lengths change don't they?

Depending on competition and what sort of mood the groundstaff are in?

 

[ChinamanSpin]

Well then I am confused because in this photo it's behind the boundary.

Maybe when they play on different pitches on the square and in different formats the boundaries vary to include the tree or not?

For example, at a test match ground the boundaries are some distance from the fans and ad boards as they play on the centre wicket, but for county games they play on one of the pitches on the edge.

Edit: Never mind, @ste_mc_efc got there first.

Yeah I think that could be why.

Case closed.

 

[ChinamanSpin]

Did you ever go to a Kent game with the old lime tree?

 

[BigAntStudios]

The other side looks too short for the tree to be inside the boundary.... unless they rope the tree in on purpose?

The English can't even draw an oval properly, can they?

Go ahead and feel free to create one.

 

[sanjayasenewira]

but i cant understand the reason why big ant create a all time best team for SRI LANKA. even NZ and WI gets a one

 

[ChinamanSpin]

Sri Lanka are relatively new to test cricket. Bangladesh, Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka joined from 1981-2000. Every other side had been in for about 30 years longer. Pakistan joined in early 50's and the other six nations joined 1877-1932. I think it's fair enough.

Could make it interesting..? Is that feature in DBC? I think it was in Ashes as all that and more....

What happens when it hits the tree and sort of tumbles down the branches and the fielder catches it when usually it would be an easy four or six?

It usually depends on local rules, but in almost all cases, such as at Kent, it's a four as soon as it hits the tree.

So the tree is a short boundary...like womans cricket

I think I remember an obscure "what if" type rules question on TMS when they have an umpire in asked this question (possibly on the battrick sledging boards, actually, but TMS is first guess) and you're answer was right, the tree is effectively the boundary.
