This guide describes the steps you should follow to record a stumping from a wide delivery in the NV Play Cricket software.
The steps needed to score a stumping off a wide delivery depend on your current Auto End Ball (Runs Scored) settings under Scoring > Scoring Options > Auto End Ball (Runs Scored). Before continuing, check this setting and then select the appropriate method from those listed below.
If Auto End Ball (Runs Scored) is ON
To record a stumping from a wide when your Auto End Ball (Runs Scored) setting is ON:
-
Click the Wicket button on the Scoring panel. The Wicket dialogue opens.
It is important that you do not click the wide button (w) on the Scoring panel first. Doing so will end the ball and prevent you from recording the stumping.
- Complete the Wicket dialogue fields as usual. Ensure you untick the End Ball (0 runs/extras) checkbox. If you don’t untick this box, only the wicket will be recorded and the wide will not be scored.
- Click OK.
- Once the Wicket button is highlighted on the Scoring panel, click the w button to record the wide and end the ball.

When your Auto End Ball (Runs Scored) setting is OFF you can record the stumping from a wide in either of the following orders, depending on your preference:
Option 1: Wicket first

- Complete the dismissal details as required.
- Click OK.
- Click the w button on the Scoring panel to record the wide.
- Click the End Ball button on the Play Control panel to commit the dismissal.
You do not need to untick the End Ball (0 runs/extras) checkbox in this mode.
