Delivery van vs Cricket sight screen: length comparison
The length of a delivery van is approximately equal to the screen width of a cricket sight screen.
A delivery van is a motor vehicle designed for transporting goods, usually with an enclosed cargo space behind the driver's seat.
A cricket sight screen is a movable panel placed behind the bowler to provide a contrasting background, making the ball easier for the batter to see.
Both rulers start at the same zero and share one linear scale. Artwork keeps its original proportions.

Length: 6 m; example.
A 6 m long van; 2.5 tonne illustrative mass, not a payload rating.
Defined examples — our methodology
The marked length is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
Cricket sight screen
Defined screen width: 6 m; defined specimen; range 4 m–8 m.
A defined mobile cricket sight screen 6 m wide and 6 m high. Cricket laws require suitable contrasting screens but do not prescribe one universal screen size; panel count, wheels and proportions vary.
The marked defined screen width is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
