===Wides=== [[File:Wides E.jpg|thumb|Cricket Scorers' wide notation]] The conventional scoring notation for a [[Wide (cricket)|wide]] is an equal cross (likened to the umpire standing with arms outstretched signalling a wide). If the batsmen run byes on a wide ball or the ball runs to the boundary for 4, a dot is added in each corner for each bye that is run, typically top left, then top right, then bottom left and finally all 4 corners. If the batsman hits the stumps with his bat, or the wicket-keeper stumps him, the batsman would be out and a βWβ is added to the WIDE βcrossβ symbol. If a batsman is run out while taking byes on a wide delivery then the number of completed runs are shown as dots and an 'R' is added in the corner for the incomplete run.
