Very few people will be aware that there are 10 ways a batsman can get out in the game of cricket, out of which five are common. While the five methods are rare. Let's know about them.
Bowled out
You all must know about the bowled out, when the bowler's ball hits the straight stump, then the batsman is bowled out.
Catch out

Hit the ball twice
If a batsman hits the ball twice for the purpose of saving runs or without the consent of the opposition team, he is given out. However, in the history of cricket so far no batsman has been dismissed in this manner.
Hit wicket
When a batsman's bat hits the wicket while batting, it is called a hit wicket.
Marking out
When the bowler thinks that the batsman has left the crease before he can bowl the ball, he may dismiss the non-striker batsman by blowing the bails of the end. However, the ball is not recorded and the batsman's wicket falls.
Stump out
You must have seen and heard well about the stump out too.
Run out
You must also know very well about runout. When a batsman runs to take a run and he does not reach the crease before time and the bowler hits the wicket, then the batsman is run out.
