All the ways out (current laws)

Since 2017 there are NINE main ways out (handled-the-ball was merged into obstructing the field): bowled, caught, LBW, run out, stumped, hit wicket, obstructing the field, hit the ball twice, and timed out. Mankad run-outs at the non-striker's end are a form of run out and fully legal.
