Yes, if the ball pitches in line with the leg stump and would have gone on to hit the leg stump, it is out LBW. However, if the ball pitches outside the leg stump, the batsman cannot be given out LBW even if the ball would have gone on to hit the stumps.

What is the reason for being deemed not out if the ball pitches outside the leg stump when the same does not apply if it pitches outside off stump?

The reason for this is that it would be against the spirit of the game because it would be seen as negative. Bowlers would then continually bowl that line with more fielders on the leg-side, and basically only try and get batsmen out LBW.

What are the rules for lbw in cricket?

This rule is fairly complex, a basic overview of the rule is provided below: - The ball hits the batsman in front of the stumps before hitting his/her bat and in the opinion of the umpire, if it had not been blocked by the batsman's body, would have gone on to hit the batsman's stumps. - In practice there are a number of subtleties to the rule, for example: * If the ball hits the batsman outside the line of the off stump and the batsman was playing a genuine shot (but missed the ball), then he cannot be given out. * If the ball pitches outside the line of the leg stump, the batsman can never be given out, even if he does not play a shot.
