All out

The batting side has no further batter able to bat under the Laws, so the innings ends.

A side is all out when every batter who can bat has been dismissed, or when the number of available batters falls below the limit. In a standard match that means ten wickets.

For net run rate, the all-out rule may count the innings as the full overs, not the overs actually bowled. Check the league clause.
