Stump gauge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Wicket gauge)

A stump gauge (or wicket gauge)[1] is an instrument used in cricket to determine the correct position for the three stumps used to form the wicket, as mandated by the Laws of Cricket.[citation needed] It is usually in a form of a metal (although sometimes plastic) bar with three spikes, and is used to locate and create the holes into which the spiked ends of the stumps are placed.[citation needed]
