WIDES 2013 Experimental trial for 1st XI matches in Divisions One and Two only for 2013 – any ball that passes outside the Batsman on the Leg side is to be called a wide.
Lines are to be drawn on the crease to indicate an offside wide in ALL matches in ALL divisions. The lines must be drawn 17" from the inside of each of the two return creases. They will therefore be two feet 6 and a half inches from the outside of the leg and off stumps. Umpires will be instructed to call a wide for any ball that they consider has passed outside of these lines.
