Law 25 distinguishes between two types of retirement. If the batsman is ill or injured they are considered "retired - not out" and may be able to return to batting if they recover by the end of the innings. A batsman can also elect to be "retired out" but in this case, they may not return to the innings unless the opposing captain consents to this. These types of retirement are considered differently in Cricket statistics.
