Did he have to wait until the end of the over to come back on the field?
I saw that and thought, what the hell is he doing? Spose he didn't want to get hit, I wouldn't want to when I'm standing about 2 metres away from Cameron White when he has a free hit, he's looking somewhere in your direction and the field can't change!
He came back on after the ball was bowled and I've always been under the impression that if you leave the field during an over, you have to wait until the end of the over to come back onto the field. A free hit must have different rules regarding it.
There is no rule..the two captains came to a "captains agreement" for the situation
