A wicket-keeper's glove is a specialized glove worn by the wicket-keeper in cricket. It is designed to protect the hands while catching or stopping the ball behind the stumps.

The gloves are typically made from leather or a durable synthetic material, offering a balance of flexibility and comfort for quick movements. Wicket-keeper's gloves also have a wrist strap to ensure a secure fit during play.
