1)The batsman facing last before ball scored one run by placing the ball back to the keeper.
2) The ball hits the keepers helmet placed in the ground.
3) So the umpire signals 5 runs penality. This is added in batsman's score. So he made century and now he is in non strikers end and the scores are level.
4) The batsman facing last ball hits six and he too scored century and win the match

Striker batsman hits the ball for 3 run but when he runs, one fielder throw the ball and the batsman  completed onother 3 runs  by "Over-throw". When they go for fourth run, the Stricker batsman got run out who already completed his 100!...The NonStricker batsman will reach at striker end and he made 6 runs in last ball to complete his 100.

If the striker hits a four in a No ball, then he will get a free - hit and now 2 runs needed in 2 balls. If the striker hits for tuple and got runout in the second run,then the striker is on 100 but still 1 more run is needed in 1 ball. Now the non striker who is on 94 will now face the ball and hits a six which ends the match with two batsmen reaching their respective centuries.

we dont require any free hit concept here.
first batsman hits the ball and runs three ,there was an overthrow so he runs three more and he became run out when he was coming back for the fourth.now the batsman has got gis century and he's out.now 1 run to win from 1 ball.the batsman on strike is  the man on 94.he hits a six and wraps up the game ,thus finishing his century too.

or if u dont wanna run any of the batsman out, then let the first batsman run 4 in the overthrow, but 1 run short(,i.e he didnt groung his bat inside  the crease while running 1 of the 4 runs in the overthrow).so het gets 6 runs and other batsman comes in strike too.now he hits a six and finish the match,and comples his century.

It may be last ball of that over. The batsman (say A) on strike makes 6 runs. After that over gets over they change their position. So another batsman (say B)will be on striking end. He makes 6 runs. so both make century and they win the match.

Batsmen hits the ball to a fielder and runs for a single. The fielder who caught the ball throws it to wicket keeper (which is placed behind the stumps). Wicket keeper fails to catch the ball and ball hit the helmet. 5 runs awarded as over throw 2 batsmen + 1 single he scored gets him 2 a century. Now score is 1 ball 1 run to win and batsmen who is also at 94 is at strike and he will hit it for a 6.

1 ball: batsman A hits for 4
2 ball: batsman A hits for 3 runs, however it ends with 1 short run   so total of A is 4+2=6 =>94+6=100
3 ball: batsman B(since they ran 3 runs) hits for 6 so total of B is: 94+6=100

There is a rule in cricket that only few people know. If a batsman hit the ball directly onto a wicket-keepers helmet (which while not being utilized is kept on the ground behind the wicket-keeper) he is awarded 5 runs. So the batsman on strike needs to hit the ball directly on the wicket-keepers helmet kept on ground and then run for a single, completing his hundred! Now the next batsman on strike hits a six to complete his century!

The answer is so simple. Really Simple... you will be surprised.!

The first ball goes for 4.

The second ball. They take 3 runs, but one is a short run. So 2 runs. Century for batsman 1.

The third ball, the Batsman 2 is on strike and hits a 6 to complete his century.

Done, both batsman score centuries....! Without losing a wicket...!
