How wide is the wicket?  by chimfa

How wide is the wicket?

Apologies for the dreadful photo. It was getting dark at 9.30 pm. This is Clive our quizmaster. The question was " how wide are the cricket stumps ?" . When we didn't understand the question he got up, stood between 2 pillars and said " Right. I am the middle stump, what is the width from the outside of these two stumps?" I explained 365 and he agreed to pose for me. ....after we'd all finished laughing , which took a while. ...for those who are interested the answer is 9 inches and yes we thought it was wider than that too.
Great fun moment in time.

Ha ha, we had the same question at one of our trivia nights too. Can't remember if we got it right or not now though.
