Got a very basic question, how many ways a batsman can be given out without a ball being bowled ?
One straightforward instance is "Time Out" , could you please share your views on what are other possible ways to give a batsman out without a ball being bowled ?
Thanks, G

I thought about it but was not sure on it whethere to get out as "Retired Out" his innings should be commenced. But I guess its the correct one. Thanks.

Presumably 'run out' if the non striker leaves his ground between the ball becoming live and the bowlere entering his delivery stride

I assume you mean without a ball being bowled in the innings? If so:
1. Timed Out does not apply as this can only take place "after the fall of a wicket or the retirement of a batsman" (Law 31.1). 2. A batsman can only retire "during his innings" but could conceivably do so after Play is called and before the first ball is bowled. However if he retires under Law 2.9.b he is not "given out", but merely recorded as out if his innings does not resume.
But: 3. A successful attempt by the bowler to run out the non-striker before entering his delivery stride for the first ball of the innings would be one example. (Law 42.15) 4. Obstructing the Field, if this takes place after the call of Play and before the bowler has delivered the first ball of the innings. (Law 37.1)

Thanks. It was a case where the inning has been started but batsman getting Out w/o actual delivery of the ball. It seems there are so many ways - Time Out / Retired Out / Bowlers attempt to Run out the Striker and as you suggested , obstructing the field.
