Section 5: Rules of Play
Why People Get This Wrong
People often think that they can choose which lane they want to bowl from during a frame, but actually, bowlers are required to alternate between the two lanes provided for their lane pair, with each match using both lanes in rotation throughout the game. This rule causes confusion because it seems restrictive at first glance, but ensures fair play and balanced competition across all players.
Official Verdict
Bowlers alternate from the lane pair (each match is contested on a lane pair, with bowlers crossing back and forth between the two lanes for each frame).
