3. (verb) Touch the ball with a batting glove while the glove is in contact with the bat. In that circumstance, the rules consider the glove to be part of the bat, so the batsman can score runs or be caught if they glove the ball. Glovemanship (also glovework)

Golden pair (also King pair)
a dismissal for nought (zero) runs off the first ball faced in each of a batsmans two innings of a two-innings match (see this list of Pairs in test and first-class cricket). Good length
the ideal place for a stock delivery to pitch in its trajectory from the bowler to the batsman. It makes the batsman uncertain whether to play a front-foot or back-foot shot. A good length differs from bowler to bowler, based on the type, height and speed of the bowler. The "good length" is not necessarily the best length to bowl, as a bowler may wish to bowl short or full to exploit a batsmans weaknesses. Googly (also wrongun or bosie)
a deceptive spinning delivery by a wrist spin bowler which spins the opposite direction to the stock delivery. For a right-hander bowler and a right-handed batsman, a googly will turn from the off side to the leg side. Developed by Bosanquet around 1900. Gouging
causing intentional damage to the pitch or ball.
So called because the ball is close enough to the batsmans face that they can supposedly smell it. Pfeiffer
see five-wicket haul
