It is bounded at either end by the bowling creases and on either side by imaginary lines, one each side of the imaginary line joining the centres of the two middle stumps, each parallel to it and 5 ft/1.52 m from it.
Detailed explanation-2: -Two sets of wickets shall be pitched opposite and parallel to each other at a distance of 22 yards / 20.12m between the centres of the two middle stumps. Each set shall be 9 in / 22.86cm wide and shall consist of three wooden stumps with two wooden bails on top. See Appendix A.
