mediumUnder the Laws of Cricket, what is the technical difference between a "bye" and a "leg bye"?
AThere is no difference
✓A bye is scored when the ball passes the striker without touching bat or body; a leg bye is scored when it deflects off the striker's body (not the bat) while attempting a shot
CA bye only counts for the wicketkeeper's errors
DA leg bye can only be scored on a no-ball
Answer Explanation
A bye is credited when the ball goes past the batter untouched by bat or body and runs are taken; a leg bye is credited when it deflects off the batter's body (while offering a genuine shot or evasive action) rather than the bat.
