CATCH AND STUMPING RATINGS FOR '2-6' VERSIONS

After some descriptions of catching and stumping chances a figure between 3 and
12 is given. This indicates the degree of difficulty of the chance, 3 the
simplest and 12 the most difficult. The computer creates a random 2-dice roll
and add this figure to the fielder (or Wicket-Keeper) Rating of the player
concerned, if the resulting total is equal to or higher then the degree of
difficulty the chance is accepted. We provide below a table showing a suitable
description for accepted chances, and for failed attempts. Where no 'degree of
difficulty' figure is shown regard the catch as a straight-forward chance.

CATCH NOT TAKEN                         FAILED STUMPING
3  - Simple                             3  - Simple
4  - Very easy                          4  - Very easy
5  - Easy                               5  - Easy
6  - Straight-forward                   6  - Straight-forward
7  - Good chance                        7  - Reasonable chance
8  - Good chance                        8  - Reasonable chance
9  - Difficult chance                   9  - Difficult chance
10 - Difficult chance                   10 - Difficult chance
11 - Very difficult chance              11 - Very difficult chance
12 - Very difficult chance              12 - Very difficult chance

Thus a 'Goes for the catch - 9' description would become a 'sharp catch held' or
a 'difficult chance dropped', and a 'Whips off the bails - 7' could be a 'neat
stumping' or a 'reasonable stumping chance missed'.
