I believe a Wicket is the bat that is used in Cricket. [/quote]

A wicket is an "out" to put it in baseball terms. Behind the batter are three vertical poles about 3 feet high with two horizontal pegs that connect them.
One of several ways to make an "out" or "take a wicket" to be correct, is to bowl the ball past the batter (the bat in cricket is called a bat) and knock the horizontal pegs off the vertical ones. If you hit the "stumps" but the pegs don't fall, you have the classic "sticky wicket". And finally, if you didn't know it, in India, cricket is way bigger than some brown nag with a broken shoe.
