Gully Cricket is one of the most interesting games which we used to play in our childhood days. It was fun when the kids are unable to decide whether the batsman was out or not during their game. However, Pakistan’s street cricketers too have found themselves in that spot; when they were unable to decide and wanted the International Cricket Council to tell whether the batsman got dismissed or not and sent a picture to ICC
However, the picture was sent to ICC which showed the bails remain intact while the middle stump has fallen over. Whether it’s ‘Out or Not Out?’ became difficult to answer as they asked everyone on social media.

As per your rules it’s Not out. But here if the guy don’t walk out even after this then bowling team will beat the shit out of him and throw him outside ground

However, ICC later tweeted back and wrote that “The wicket is put down if a bail is completely removed from the top of the stumps, or a stump is struck out of the ground.”
