  Darts Cricket
The game known as 'Cricket' in the US is known in the UK as 'Tactics' and is generally played with the numbers 20 to 12 written vertically down the board.
However, any darts that land off the scoring area of the board are deemed to be out - or in English cricket parlance, the player has run himself (or herself) out.
Also any batting darts that land in the bull or outer mean that either 2 or 1 player is also run out.
