what is the measurement for wide lines in the game of cricket ?

Answer 1

what you mean by the wide lines? Popping crease?

Answer 2

In the sport of cricket, the crease is the area demarcated by white lines painted or chalked on the field of play.

The term crease is also used to refer to the lines themselves (but only the back edge of the line, i.e. the edge nearest to the wicket at that end, as this is the actual crease), particularly the popping crease. Law 9 of the Laws of Cricket governs the size and position of the crease markings.

Four creases (one popping crease, one bowling crease, and two return creases) are drawn at each end of the pitch, around the two sets of stumps. The batsmen generally play in and run between the areas defined by the creases at each end of the pitch.
