Was It My Hearing

[weecalf]

Watching Bradley and the chase .The question was how many players are on the pitch at the start of a cricket match I think he said .answer 15 how ? I thought 13 but maybe he said people on the pitch .Any one watch it

He said people, weecalf. Eleven fielders, two batsmen and two umpires.

[bibblebub]

people - fielders = 11, batsmen = 2, umpires = 2

[weecalf]

Good cause I like Bradley .Thank you .

[weecalf]

sometimes there is 16 then when the twelfth man brings on the drinks

[bibblebub]

but not at the start of the match

If the question said "pitch" then the answer is two since the pitch is the twenty-two yards they play on and not the whole area where everyone else is.

In the same programme when the Chaser was answering questions - one was 'how many are two dozen'. My husband and I both thought he answered 34 but it wasn't picked up on so we must have misheard but it's strange that we both thought he said 34.
