Idiom
[edit]I'm not as up on my cricket as some Wiktionary editors (ahem) but if the definition is accurate, that caught behind means to be caught out by the wicketkeeper, this would be an idiom, as there are other fielders behind the batsman. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:34, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
RFV overturned
[edit]Just realized I've re-entered the noun definition which I myself nominated. It was speedily deleted and, google books:"a caught behind" and google books:"caught behinds" are attested. Furthermore WT:CFI talks about valid citations, is says nothing about copying them up on to our pages, just that there be valid citations. Renard Migrant (talk) 12:34, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
