If you are bowling to a batsman at 99, with the batting team needing one run to win, and you want to play spoilsport and deny him a well-deserved century, then it's simple - bowl a no-ball. Even if the ball gets hit for a six, the batsman will be denied the runs, since the no-ball run ensures the end of the match, and the six doesn't get counted.
Sri Lanka did it to Sehwag last night :(

Wy do u think he did it on purpose? No ball ensures India wins. There were good chances that he would have taken a wicket on the last ball and drawn the match..
Not interested in cricket, but just a thought..
btw, the new look to the blog is cool!
Arati, there were fifteen or so overs left :) And many more batsmen to come.
And now Sri Lanka have apologised to India.
oh ok.. I thought it was the last ball.. :D
