Wicketkeepers and Wickets on the Pitch
The wicketkeeper maintains a critical position behind the stumps, watching every delivery thrown by the bowler. Wearing padded leg guards provides protection against fast-moving cricket balls bouncing off the pitch.
The Role of Wickets in Cricket
Wickets consist of three upright wooden stumps topped by two horizontal wooden pieces called bails. If a bowled ball knocks the bails off the stumps, the batsman is dismissed from play.
