Answer 2

It means that if the bowler bowls a no ball, the ball after that is a free hit meaning that on the next ball the batsmen cannot be bowled,caught or stumped the only thing that can happen is the batsmen can get run out.

The fielding captain cannot change the field during a free hit unless there is a left hand, right hand combination.

Answer 3

In the event of a No Ball bowled by the bowler, the batting side is awarded 2 runs and also a free hit,. In the free hit, batsman cannot be given ou only if it is a run out. Hence batsman can hit the ball to any part of the ground and score runs.

Answer 4

when a bowler bowls a front foot no ball( if he oversteps while delivering the ball to the batsmen) the batsmen is awarded a free hit off the next ball ,that is a batsmen can get out only by running himself out ,

Answer 6

it is stated in the rules of 20 20 cricket matches that

* Should a bowler deliver a no ball by overstepping the popping crease, it costs 2 runs and his next delivery is designated a free-hit, from which the batsman can only be dismissed through a run out, for hitting the ball twice, obstructing the field or handling the ball, as is the case for the original "no ball".

Answer 7

The new rule meant that when a bowler bowls a no ball the the delivery he bowls the batsman can not be out by the ways you can be given out in a normal game except in a run out situation.The new rule will make the bowlers more accurate and disciplined to avoid giving away bonus runs as less no balls means less time lost in a match."
