What is the difference between run out and stumping?


What is the difference between run out and stumping?

A batsman is said to be stumped when he misses the ball, is out of his crease, and the wicket keeper gathers the ball and breaks the stumps. But if the batsman is attempting to take a run, he is run out.


The batsman is also run out when he is not attempting a run and a fielder other than the wicket keeper is responsible for getting him out.
