Question: How many balls are there in an over?

Answer: 6 balls.

If this was a CA question and the above answer would be wrong.

The examiner's comment would be as follows:

"Students have not understood the question correctly. Answer pointed to a lack of in-depth understanding and conceptual clarity on subject.

The correct answer is 1 ball which is delivered 6 times" ;)

That is also wrong answer

it there is wide or no ball then over consists of 7balls

if 2 wides or no balls then over consits of 8 balls

 

so answer is it is not possible to tell how many balls for over it is varied from 6 to Infinative

Dear friend,

 The answer is 1 ball which is delivered 6 times and provided further explaining 6 actual times, this represent, and does not count on the extras if were it may lead to increase in the number of deliveries in the place of 6 and totalling it comes to such extras adding with 6 actuals

Right...

"We can make assumptions too that there were no Extras...." ;)

Ur right Mr.Jiju. We hav manhy assumptions

Good joke with a good moral for ca students .It highlights the importance  of analysis of language in law subjects .Interpretation of bare act language (Income tax , company Act etc..)  is very much similar to this joke.
