What is the worst shot you have played in Cricket?

Yeah I have seen batsmen get bowled and the team given 4 byes when that happens. So I assume it can't be one rule for the run out and one for the boundary. And in that Dean Jones incident, was it not because it was Hooper who did the run out that it was out? I guess if it was the keeper it would have been not out. And I assume the law was there because rpesumably you can get runs even if you are dismissed in a manner that does not count off a no ball. Now I guess the addendum reg. player thinking he was dismissed was added post that dismissal, coz if that is the rule, even Murali was not run out when Baz ran him out all those years ago, right?
Nah the Batsman leaving his wicket under a misapprehension thing was around for the Dean Jones thing, because Ian Chappell reads it out in the longer video. I guess that didn't apply to Murali because he wasn't actually dismissed prior to the run out, so he didn't leave his crease thinking he was out.

It made me think of this run out off a no ball catch that was given out, but tbh I have no idea whatsoever what the two South African batsmen were thinking here. I think Cairns' pointing and yelling caused some sort of general meltdown and panic.

When Vaughan got bowled by McGrath in the Ashes off a no ball (Boycott being a **** on commentary is how people might remember it) England ran a couple so ball isn't dead.
