Law 19.5.1 | contact with a fielder over the rope | T20 Blast

[@Official.InningsBreak]

However, the law in states that a fielder would only be considered outside the playing area if the contact with another player was considered intentional and therefore benefited the fielding side.

19.5 Fielder grounded beyond the boundary 19.5.1 A fielder is grounded beyond the boundary if some part of his/her person is in contact with any of the following: - the boundary or any part of an object used to mark the boundary; - the ground beyond the boundary; - any object that is in contact with the ground beyond the boundary; - another fielder who is grounded beyond the boundary, if the umpire considers that it was the intention of either fielder that the contact should assist in the fielding of the ball.

@ICC Cricket Law I have one question when ball was in the air fielder first crosses boundary unintentionally and checks the boundary line and come back from the boundary line and takes the catch safely is it out or not out

[@HappyBagger]

So the correct decision would have been 'Out'.

[@Official.InningsBreak]

YES

Out, since the cap is not in contact with the fielder.
