Glossary
The wicket is put down by the bowler’s delivery, including via the batter’s body or bat as the Laws allow.
A batter is bowled when the ball hits the stumps and at least one bail falls. The ball may have touched the bat or the batter's body first, provided the Laws allow the dismissal.
The bowler gets the wicket. Write "b" and the bowler's name.
