"If boundary results from overthrow or wilful act of a fielder"
- clearly in this case, it's the former
"together with the run in progress if they had already crossed at the instant of the throw or act."
- the distinction there is re whether it was an overthrow - in which case it's the instant of the throw - or a wilful act by a fielder, in which case it's the instant of the act.
So in this case it's the instant of the throw that matters. There was no 'act'.
