In cricket, common methods of dismissal are...
In cricket, a dismissal occurs when a batsman's innings is terminated by the opposing team. Cricket players bat in pairs. If 10 out of 11 members of a team are dismissed in a cricket match, the team's innings ends. A player is out when a batsman's batting period is terminated by the opposing team, which means the batting side loses a wicket and the fielding side gains a wicket.
If 10 players of a team get out before the stipulated overs then it is considered all out. Then the batting team has to go for bowling or fielding.
For what reasons is a batsman considered out in cricket?
A batsman can be given out in cricket for the following reasons:
1. Bowled— The ball, delivered by the bowler, hits the stumps and dislodges the bails.
2. Caught—The batsman hits the ball with the bat (or glove) and a fielder, wicketkeeper, or bowler catches it before it touches the ground.
3. LBW (Leg Before Wicket)—The ball strikes the batsman’s leg in line with the stumps, and the umpire determines that it would have hit the wicket if not for the pad.
4. Run Out—A fielder successfully throws the ball to the stumps while the batsman is outside the crease before completing a run.
5. Stumped—The wicketkeeper removes the bails when the batsman is outside the crease and not attempting a run.
6. Hit Wicket—The batsman accidentally dislodges the bails with their bat, body, or any part of their equipment while playing a shot or taking off for a run.
7. Obstructing the Field—The batsman deliberately obstructs a fielder’s attempt to take a catch or execute a run-out.
8. Hit the Ball Twice—The batsman deliberately strikes the ball twice (except to stop it from hitting the stumps with their bat or body).
9. Timed Out—A new batsman does not arrive at the crease within three minutes of the previous batsman being dismissed.
10. Retired Out—A batsman voluntarily leaves the field and does not return, except for an injury-related reason.
