There are 8 primary ways of
getting dismissed(out).
Caught: this is the most common and highest dismissals in cricket history. Here a
batsman is dismissed if his hit is taken by any fielder before the ball touches
the ground. This catch has to be taken inside the 70-meter not on the line or
beyond it.
Caught by Wicket-Keeper:- A
fielder standing behind the stumps wearing leg guards and hand gloves is called
a wicket-keeper. About 10/15% of the
balls are collected/stopped by the keeper.
Caught and bowled : the
player who is bowling is has taken the catch
LBW

of any stump than you are out.

the ball hits your stumps than you are bowled.
Run out : Any fielder
breaks the stumps before you or batting partner fail to reach the 22 yard
distance (while attempting to take a run)than you are dismissed as run
out.

of crease while playing(or missing) a ball – than a keeper can break the stumps
after collecting the ball behind/top of the stumps.
