Wide (cricket)
In the sport of cricket, a wide is one of two things:
  • The event of a ball being delivered by a bowler too wide or (in international cricket) high to be hit by the batsman, and ruled so by the umpire.
  • The run scored by the batting team as a penalty to the bowling team when this occurs.
