What are the 10 ways you can be out in cricket...and don't look it up on the web?

Question

No it isn't where I got the question from. It's just a question that very few people know the answer to even though they follow cricket. Try the same with baseball if you want!!

Answer 1

10 types of dismissal.
As listed by others they are:
Bowled
Caught
Stumped
LBW
Hit Wicket
Run Out (including the rare "Mankad" run out while backing up)
Hit Ball Twice
Obstruction of Field
Timed out
Handled Ball

Retired Out contrary to the opinion of some is not a dismissal - though the batsman is not permitted to resume his (or her) innings. No appeal is made in this circumstance, and no decision given by the umpire.

To correct a misperception regarding Retired Hurt/ill the batsman is entitled to resume his/her innings at the fall of any wicket - or if another batsman is unfortunate enough to retire hurt.

I have also seen reference to "Retired dead" can't remember where but i'm sure the "bearded wonder" can.

In response to pressurek.... See Law 2 part 9 of the Laws of Cricket, and I am familiar both with the two instances you stated and countless others, in both first class (including tour matches) and even club cricket too! If a batsman retires (for any reason other than illness or injury) and the opposing captain refuses to let him resume his innings it is recorded as "retired out"

But re bowled I have seen - or rather heard - an appeal for that type of dismissal - admittedly in club cricket being played in windy conditions; the bails had been removed as they were constantly being blown off.

Answer 4

I am not a avid follower of cricket but do watch it on tv a lot. I'll give it a go.. and I will not look at the other answers either. Honest.

1 - bowled
2 - caught
3 - stumped
4 - lbw
5 - run out
6 - handle ball
7 - dragged (hit ball) on to stumps
8 - hit stumps (with bat, clothing, foot etc) and bails come off
9 - deliberately interfere with ball thrown at stumps by fielders
10 - if have runner and runner got out (?)

OK OK I had a go. Don't think I got them all right thought. Will submit the answer and then go look at the other answers and see. But at least I have a go and got two points.

Answer 5

Caught
Stumped
Run Out
Bowled
LBW

Retired Hurt? (does that count?)

Answer 6

Bowled

Timed Out
Double Hit

Answer 7

LBW (leg before wicket)
Bowled
Hit Wicket
Stumped
Caught
Retired Hurt
Hit ball twice
Run out
Obstruction of field

those are the main outtings i could think, some of them arent tht obvious like, retiring out on declaration, draggin the ball to stumps (its just called hit wicket still)

Answer 8

Caught, bowled, run out, stumped, retired hurt, handling the ball, hitting ball twice, obstructing the field, LBW, and I seem to recall the final one is failing to make the field in time.

Answer 9

Bowled
Stumped
Run-out
Hit wicket
Stood on wicket
LBW
Hit twice
caught
Retired hurt (does that count?)
I give up - I missed a couple of really obvious ones, haven't I?
