Imagine a situation in a onedayer where the batting side needs 6 runs to tie off the last ball with the last pair batting.As the batsman comes forward the bowler deliberately bowls a wide and thus not allowing the reqd runs and the batsman gets stumped.Isn't it an injustice? If you think that the batsman desrves to be out then why stumpings are not allowed in no balls?

Some of the answerers are saying that the batsman should not go for the wide.But my dear friends how will he know that it is going to be a wide ball?Is the fielding side going to tell him?Secondly what if the bowler and the keeper had planned before the delivery that the former would deliberately bowl a wide to trap the batsman?

He should be able to be stumped and there is an obvious reason. Nothing could prevent a batsman from staying miles out of his crease unless he knows that the bowler can bowl wide and he will get stumped.
As for the situation, it is not too smart to predetermine a shot and charge up just because you need a six. If he had waited he could've gotten one run plus an extra ball for the wide.

Its really a nice question...but i still feel that collecting a wide ball and hitting the stump is not an easy task and hence disallowing stumping on a wide ball will also be discouraging the wicket-keeper....see if it is a wide the batsman has missed it...if it is a big wide it could be seen by batsman easily....and if u r talking of preplanned activities then many things r also be done by the 2 batsman on the field (and r being done) in a planned manner...Stumping is an act of keeper also and hence i feel that STUMPING SHALL ALSO BE ALLOWED ON NO BALL as it is allowed on wide ball....

there is no necessity of chaining the rule. Because Wide ball is a delivery which is bowled by bowler which passes beyond the reach of striker. When it is beyond, why the striker should make an attempt. If a batsman is well versed with the law, definitely he will get 1 run for that delivery as extras and will get one more delivery. So not necessary.

I'll say it as " mistake over mistake" mean to say , bowler made a mistake by bowling a wide ball, for that bowling team will pay for their penality a run to batting team, if batsman overcome bowlers mistake by stepping out to hit the ball, for batsman's mistake bowling team will be rewarded his wicket if meantime wicketkeeper doing the smart job- stumped the batsman.I think cricket rule ... ok......

Already bowler has lots of problems in ODI cricket why do you want to create one more ?
Almost every thing in ODI's favoures batsmen don't you think
If batsmen gets stumped then its clever bowling ,it is a skill all
bowlers does not have this skill .
You need to change the line and length of the delivery at the very last moment so that batsmen commits mistake , this is stumping .
When batsmen is stumped the wicket is given to bowler ,in case of no ball the wicket cannot be given to bowler so stumping is not given .

It's a hard call, but if the batsman is fooled into moving out of his ground I'd have to say that it is his own fault. It takes a clever (and perhaps lucky) bowler and wicket-keeper to accomplish this, so I'll side with them.

bo because when it a wide in addition to the extra run they get an extra ball, therefore in you situation, the bats man would then have an extra ball to score five runs so it makes up for it, that is once the batsman dont go chasing the wide ball and get stumped.

What is the use of changing the rule - is India going to win world cup - the only rule that needs to be changed is cricket can also be palyed as book cricket, should there be rains or ground affected for playing.
In either case, no way, Indians can win major tournaments, unless we completely bribe all opponents - just like cronje and azhar

me pramato here,..
this is simply best question in this month
in Yahoo forum.
here's my star for it.
you are great thinker man
i totally agree with you..
cuz once Sanath Jayasuriya was on 189 not out ,
ganguly delivered wide ball and was stumped and given out by the umpire.
if that ridiculous rule was not there jayasuriya could have shown the world,...
first double ton of ODI
that rule is not sensible.
if batsmen can not reach it,
wicket keeper should not allowed to anything.
