In Cricket, a ______ will be declared if the umpire thinks the batsman did not have a reasonable opportunity to score off the delivery.
Wide Ball
The question describes a delivery on which the batsman had no reasonable opportunity to score, and asks what the umpire declares.
In cricket, a 'Wide Ball' is signalled when a delivery passes too far from the batsman for a normal shot to be played.
The umpire judges that the batsman did not get a fair or reasonable chance to score off such a delivery.
A wide adds one run to the batting team's total (as extras) and the ball must usually be bowled again.
A 'Fast ball', 'Yorker' and 'Length Ball' are simply types of deliveries defined by pace or where the ball pitches, not umpiring decisions about scoring opportunity.
Therefore they cannot be 'declared' by the umpire for a wayward delivery.
Hence the correct answer is Wide Ball.
The umpire declares a Wide Ball when the batsman has no reasonable opportunity to score.
