we have heard many puzzles till date.but here i woud like to share a wonderful puzzle that relates to the game of cricket.
there are last two players remaining.the team needs seven runs to win in three balls.let the last two players on the field be called as a and b respectively.
both of them are on 94 runs.so the puzzle is how will both the players be able to complete their centuries???

Is it 3 balls ? It can be done in just 2 balls.
Hi I've heard this puzzle from my friends,2 possible solutions are there

1.player-a hits a single but the ball hits the helmet placed by fielder on the ground so 5 runs penalty--(1+5=6)
1 run to win
Now player-b faces the last ball hits a six
team wins both a&b scores a 100..

2.player-a hits the 1st ball runs 3 but during the confusion a run was missed and the umpire calls a short run(-1),now the ball was overthown by a fielder and it crosses the boundary(4)----(3-1+4=6)
1 run to win
Now player-b faces the last ball hits a six
team wins both a&b scores a 100..

Happy myLotting..
Have a nice day/night.......
