Wickets

• The umpires were stationed behind the wickets; the scorers were prepared to notch the runs; a breathless silence ensued. 查尔斯·狄更斯. 匹克威克外传.
• It was not far to Longmeadow, but the tent was pitched and the wickets down by the time they arrived. 路易莎·梅·奥尔科特. 小妇人.
• The wickets were pitched, and so were a couple of marquees for the rest and refreshment of the contending parties. 查尔斯·狄更斯. 匹克威克外传.
