Question: How many balls are there in an over? 

Ans: 6.



 If this were a CA Question , the answer would be wrong.



 The examiner's comment:- Most of the students answered the question. However, students lacks conceptual & in-depth knowledge of the subject. The correct answer is 1 ball which is delivered 6 times if the umpire does not declare any No-ball or Wide in any of the 6 deliveries. In case the umpire declares a No-ball or a Wide as defined in the bye-laws Section 2 Rule 3(2a) of the International Cricket Control Board, then there will be an additional ball delivered for every ball declared as No-ball or Wide as mentioned above. Note that such additional ball will not be counted towards the number of balls..
