    Amazing scenes! Bowler should be publically flogged for that though; its not that hard not to bowl a no ball when the opposition need 12 off the last ball!

    am I missing something here. How was that 12 runs ?

    No ball plus a boundary = 5 plus a 6 makes 11.

    Commentator said that it was 4 plus 2 for the no ball so Im guessing the penalty for a no ball is greater in that competition.

    Yeah, it was a two run no ball

    Andre Adams starred in a dream finish for Auckland with a last-ball six against Northern Districts at Seddon Park. Chasing 161, Auckland needed 12 off the last ball and a waist-high full toss by seamer Graeme Aldridge was despatched for four by Adams. It was signalled a no ball, adding two extra runs to the total. With an exact six required off the last ball, Adams sealed the deal with a straight hit over long-off, guiding his side home by four wickets.

    You couldn't make it up.

    shocking stuff by the bowler that said it was a pretty marginal no ball in my eyes.
