What is collective noun for matches?

There isn't a widely accepted collective noun specifically for matches.

Here are some options you could use, depending on the context:

* A box of matches (This is the most common and practical way to refer to a group of matches.)

* A packet of matches (Similar to a box, but may be a smaller or different type of container.)

* A collection of matches (Suitable if you're talking about a group of matches gathered for a specific purpose, like collecting matchbooks.)

* A pile of matches (Describes a loose group of matches.)

Ultimately, the best choice will depend on the specific situation and what you want to emphasize.
