What a bowler aims for (6)

I believe the answer is:

wicket

(Other definitions for wicket that I've seen before include "Small door or gate" , "Stumps and bails construction - success for a bowler" , "Small gate; stumps, bails" , "Three stumps plus a crosspiece" , "may be secured by a catch" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
