What is a "crease"?

A crease is a marked area near the goal in sports like hockey, lacrosse, and field hockey, where certain rules apply to protect the goalkeeper. In hockey, the crease is a semi-circular space in front of the goal, and players are not allowed to enter it unless they are attempting to score. The crease helps ensure the goalie has space to defend the goal without interference.

(cricket) a line marked on the pitch that defines the area within which a batsman must stand to be safe from being run out

What is the "crease"?

The crease in cricket refers to the lines drawn on the field that mark the boundaries for the batter and the bowler. There are two main creases: the popping crease and the bowling crease. The popping crease is where the batter must stand to be safe while running between the wickets, and if the batter is out of their crease when the bails, the small pieces of wood placed on top of the stumps, are removed, they can be dismissed. The bowling crease marks where the bowler must deliver the ball from, and it helps ensure the bowler does not overstep the line. These creases help define the area of play and ensure fair play.
