leg before wicket
(a) leg before wicket: a mode of dismissal in which the batter is judged to have obstructed, with the leg (or another part of the body) rather than the bat, a ball which would otherwise have hit the wicket. Used chiefly as an adverbial or adjectival phrase describing a batter's dismissal in this way. Abbreviated l.b.w.This mode of dismissal was introduced in 1774, probably to prevent batters from intentionally blocking a ball which might otherwise have hit the wicket, though by 1795 it had been extended to encompass accidental obstruction. Many slight modifications have been made to the Law since then.
Under the current Law, the batter's hands and gloves are considered part of the bat when holding it.
