    Bloody hell Wesley...

    Deep breathe and:

    1. Caught -'Howzat!'
    2. LBW - Leg before wicket.
    3. Bowled Out - bails knocked off stumps.
    4. Stumped - keeper knocks bails off having caught ball before batsman is grounded.
    5. Timed out - next batsman must be at crease within 3 minutes of wicket falling.
    6. Handled the ball - batsman used hand to bat ball away from wicket.
    7. Run Out - batsman hasn't reached crease before opposition knocks bails off with ball.
    8. Hitting ball twice - batsman deliberately double hits ball.
    9. Obstruction - if batsman id deemed to have obstructed a fielder.
    10. Hit wicket - batsman hits wicket.

    and breathe....

    You misunderstood me. I was editing my own answer to the question "how many ways can you be out in Cricket" after realising that my own answer was wrong :o
