Quiz: How well do you know the LBW rules?

LBW rules for cricket are what off-side rules are for football. Take this quiz to find whether you have a sound knowledge of the rules regarding LBWs.

  • Assume that all balls are hitting the stumps.
  • Your left side is the off side. Your right is the leg side.
  • Presume that the bat was not involved in any of the following situations.
  • Watch out for the blue box at the right-hand bottom corner, which may have some deciding factors.
