Final answer:

In cricket, a batsman can be dismissed in several ways including being caught out, bowled, or by LBW.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the game of cricket, there are several ways a batsman can be dismissed or be 'out'. Some common ways of getting out include:

  1. Being caught out: If a fielder catches the ball hit by the batsman before it touches the ground, the batsman is considered out.
  2. Bowled: When the bowler hits the stumps behind the batsman with the ball, the batsman is out.
  3. LBW (Leg Before Wicket): If the ball hits the batsman's leg before hitting the stumps, and the umpire determines it would have hit the stumps, the batsman is out.

So, options (a), (b), and (d) are incorrect as they do not lead to dismissal in cricket.
