The first batsman hits a 4 on the 1st ball.2nd ball he  took 3 runs  but one run short declare umpire.  2nd batsman now faces the bowler and hits a six on the last ball. both make 100 runs and the 2nd batsman remains unbeaten as well.

The first batsman hits a six on the 1st ball. He then tries to take a single on 2nd ball but gets run out while the 2nd batsman safely reaches the striker' s end. The run doesn't get counted but the 2nd batsman now faces the bowler and hits a six on the last ball. Thus both make 100 runs and the 2nd batsman remains unbeaten as well.

First ball, Batsman A on strike (94*), 7 to win - the ball is struck (presumably to somewhere in the outfield) and the batsmen take three runs. However, on one of the runs, one of the batsmen accidentally fails to make his ground, so the umpire calls a short run and that run is disallowed (as per Law 18.4(a)). While the ball is still in play the fielder throws it to the wicket-keeper but overthrows it, and the ball goes to the boundary and so an additional four runs are awarded (as per Law 19.6). Thus, six runs (3 runs - 1 short run + 4 overthrows) are awarded to Batsman A for his century and according to Law 18.12(a), Batsman B would now be on strike.

  • Second ball, Batsman B on strike (94*), 1 to win - the ball is struck over the boundary for six. Batsman B scores his century and his team wins the match.
