Dug-out

Dilshan to Raina, SIX!!, That's it and Raina has finished it for CSK and their dug-out has erupted, both Raina and Vijay are pumping their fists as well, lovely cricketing shot, makes room and goes inside out, just timing and it sailed over deep extra cover,

Could you please explain to me what "dug-out" means here?

I can only assume that this is talking about a cricket match - please try and provide context so we can better answer your question. A "dugout", in cricket or baseball is the area where players sit to watch the match when they are not playing (sitting on the side). In this sentence, I can assume Raina has scored a goal and the dug-out erupted, that is, the players in the dug-out began to cheer, and Raina and Vijay began pumping their fists for the good shot.
