    		Gentlemen v Players

    http://www.lords.org/history/milestones.asp

    18 July–20 July The Gentlemen v. Players cricket match, established in 1806, is played for the last time at Lord's, London, England, as the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) votes to abolish the distinction between amateurs ('gentlemen') and professionals ('players').

    Accrington Stanley resigned from Division 4 of the Football League on Monday 6th March 1962 (see Q# 21933). Their last match, played on Saturday 3rd March 1962, was their 33rd game for the 1961-62 season, and their W-D-L 5-8-20 (goals 19-60) record was expunged. I've hit a brick wall trying to locate their next game, the 34th game of the 46 game season. What was their next game (aka which club got the bye)?

    Cricket question. The batting side require two runs to win - the ball is played into the outfield and, although not reaching the boundary there is time for the batsmen to run three. On completion of the second run the umpire at the bowler's end calls 'time' and removes the bails believing the match to be over. The square leg umpire then calls the first run short. The scorers have made no errors. For the purposes of Law 21(9) would this count as a mistake in the scoring that would allow the match to resume unless the last available ball had been bowled?
