In Bristol letters to the editor the reader asks if a fielder who touches a ball with the palm but cannot hold it should be charged with an error. The editor’s answer: not an error, as earnest effort to field a four ground hit should not count as an error, and past practice of scoring any touch as an error is too harsh.
