Third ball next morning, nightwatchman Ted took one to the head which knocked him out and he was carried off. The scorebook entry was 'Retired hurt' but Ted soon recovered and said he hadn't retired and should be allowed to play on. He wasn't allowed to but Is he right?

Yes he has to be allowed to play on. As a person who has retierd hurt can come back and bat whether he is completely recoverd or not.

I am giving you the exact rule. I think you can understand this.

Retired hurt :

If a batsman gets injured or ill while batting, he may retire and resume his batting at a later stage in the innings at the fall of a wicket or when another batsman retires hurt. If he takes the umpire's permission to leave, he is declared 'Retired – not out'.

Retired out :

In cricket, a batsman retires out he retires without the umpire's permission, and does not have the permission of the opposing captain to resume his innings. This often happens from time to time in friendly practice games, for instance English county sides versus University Centres of Cricketing Excellence. Only two batsmen have retired out in test match cricket. Both instances were in the same match, where the Sri Lankan batsmen retired out to save the Bangladeshi opposition further embarrassment. Each of these two batsmen had already scored more runs than the entire Bangladeshi team in the previous innings, and it is arguable that they deliberately gave batting time to newer teammates.

I think it is clear. If you still have any doubts, contact me.

Hope you understood this concept.

Retired batsman can normally make a second appearance as the new number 11 @ the end of the innings. in under 15s cricket anyway!
