Solution
Stumped is a method of dismissing a batsman in cricket, which involves the wicket-keeper putting down the wicket while the batsman is out of his ground. (If a batsman misses the ball in an attempt to play it, steps outside the popping crease and the wicket-keeper gathers the ball and breaks the wicket with it before the batman can ground part of his body or his bat behind his popping crease).
