4, run 3, 6 is highly likely at the end of a match when you need 7 off 3 and 
you cock up the 3! Running seven is something I've never seen at any decent 
standard of cricket. And as we have two batsmen on 94, we should assume this is 
not an under-11s 20-over thrash? Have you ever seen anyone run seven?
