It's about cricket! Stumps are three bits of wood (short poles) that are put in the ground in a line next to each other.

Two short pieces of wood rest on the top of them (called the bails) ... when made the whole thing is called a wicket

At "close of play" the umpires (there are 2) remove the stumps. Breaks during the day only the bails are removed.

BTW some games are scheduled for 5 days and if not completed are considered a draw. 5 days and no result :)
