What is a run out?
A run out happens when the batter fails to make the crease before the fielding side breaks the stumps. These wickets often come from pressure and communication errors.
Fielding impact
Sharp inner-ring fielders and accurate boundary throwers can stop runs and create wickets. That is why run outs reflect fielding discipline, not just luck.
Why it matters
A run out can break a partnership or swing a close chase. It is one of the clearest signs of fielding intensity.
