Solution
- A batsman is called out stumped if the wicketkeeper successfully takes the bails from the stumps while the batsman is outside their crease and not attempting a run.
- This usually occurs when a batsman steps out of the crease to play a shot and misses the ball, allowing the wicketkeeper to remove the bails before the batsman can return to the crease.
