Bowled is one of the manners in which a batsman can get out. If the wicket at which the batsman is batting is hit by the ball he is declared bowled out. The batman is clean bowled if the wickets are hit directly, however he/ she is still declared bowled even if the ball deflects off the bat, gloves, pad or any other part of his/ her body as long as it does not hit another player or the umpire before hitting the stumps.
