The batting side need 1 to win, the batter is on 97, he strikes the ball and runs 3, Does he get his 100 or is the match over when the winning run is scored or is it when the ball is dead.

The match is won as soon as the batsmen score the 1 run required, so the ball is dead at that point, leaving the batsman on 98 not out even if they decide to keep on running.
Similarly, if the scores are level and the batsman is stumped off a wide he would be not out because as soon as the wide is bowled (actually called when it passes the wicket) the wide is scored and the match over.

When 1 run is required, as soon as the batsman completes 1 run the bowler's end umpire will call 'Time' and the match is won by the fielding side by the wickets, yet to fall. If the non out batsman is on 97 and wants to score a century under the situation, he has to hit a boundary and not to complete any run before the ball reaches the boundary. In this case, the batsman will get 4 runs and will remain not out on 101. Please note it should not be a No ball or a Wide Ball. SUHAS SAPRE (BARODA 11/08/2011)
