78 8.12.2 In the case of the team batting first being dismissed in less than the number of overs allocated for their innings, the calculation will be based on the number of balls that the team was scheduled to receive and not on the number actually received. Example 1: 1st innings score = 142; scheduled overs = 20; actual overs 14.2 ARR = 142 / (20 x 6) = 1.39 (2 decimal places) 8.12.3 In the case of the batting team being unable to receive their allocated overs, the calculation of their average run rate will be based on the actual number of legitimate deliveries by them during the innings. 8.12.4 The average run rate can be calculated to any number of decimal positions and a tie can only be achieved if the average run rates are identical. 8.12.5 To re‐calculate the required number of runs for the team batting second, where the scheduled number of overs to be received is reduced, the revised number of scheduled overs is multiplied by the ARR (complete and neither rounded or set to any number of decimal places) and then multiplied by 6. The team batting second will be required to obtain a score greater than this total in order to win. Should the scores be level, then the match is tied and Rule 8.5.2 applies. Example 1: 1st innings ARR = 1.125 Revised scheduled overs = 16 Revised target score = 16 x 1.125 x 6 = 108 No. runs required to win = 109 (tie is possible) Example 2: 1st innings ARR = 1.39 Revised scheduled overs = 12 Revised target score = 12 x 1.39 x 6 = 100.2 No. of runs required to win = 101 (tie is not possible) Example 3: 1st innings ARR = 1.65 Revised scheduled overs = 6 Revised target score = 6 x 1.65 x 6 = 59.44 No. of runs required to win = 60 (tie is not possible) 8.14 Bowl Outs 8.14.1 In the event of no result being obtained by other methods and where there is no reserve date on which to play the game, a bowl out (outdoors or indoors) will take place to achieve a result. 8.14.2 Five players from each side will bowl two overarm deliveries each at a wicket (conforming to Law 8) from a wicket pitched at a distance of 22 yards with, if
