1. Out Run out
(a) Either batsman is out Run out, except as in 2 below,
if at any time while the ball is in play
(i) he is out of his ground and
(ii) his wicket is fairly put down by the opposing side.
(b) (a) above shall apply even though No ball has been
called and whether or not a run is being attempted,
except in the circumstances of Law 39.3(b) (Not out
Stumped).
2. Batsman not Run out
Notwithstanding 1 above, a batsman is not out Run out
if
(a) he has been within his ground and has subsequently
left it to avoid injury, when the wicket is put down.
(b) the ball has not subsequently been touched again
by a fielder, after the bowler has entered his delivery
stride, before the wicket is put down.
(c) the ball, having been played by the striker, or
having come off his person, directly strikes a helmet
worn by a fielder and without further contact with him
or any other fielder rebounds directly on to the wicket.
However, the ball remains in play and either batsman
may be Run out in the circumstances of 1 above if a
wicket is subsequently put down.
(d) he is out Stumped. See Law 39.1(b) (Out Stumped).
(e) he is out of his ground, not attempting a run and
his wicket is fairly put down by the wicket-keeper without
the intervention of another member of the fielding side,
if No ball has been called. See Law 39.3(b) (Not out
Stumped).
3. Which batsman is out
The batsman out in the circumstances of 1 above is the
one whose ground is at the end where the wicket is put
down. See Laws 2.8 (Transgression of the Laws by a batsman
who has a runner) and 29.2 (Which is a batsman's ground).
4. Runs scored
If a batsman is dismissed Run out, the batting side
shall score the runs completed before the dismissal,
together with the penalty for a No ball or a Wide, if
