Out (cricket)

In cricket, a batsman would be out when they lost a wicket. This meant they could not play for the rest of the innings. Another term for it was a dismissal. A batsman could be run out or bowled out. Sometimes at the end of an innings they could even be not out.

Nyssa once joked that the Fifth Doctor's well-shot beamer had bowled out a grandparent scorpion that was threatening Rupert Von Thal. (AUDIO: The Boy That Time Forgot)

In the friendly between Cheldon Bonniface Invitation Eleven and the Doctor's Invitation Eleven, Bernice Summerfield was run out by Peter Hutchings, while both Dr John Watson and P. Cooke's innings were not out at the ends of their innings. (PROSE: Happy Endings)
