Castled

The word castled means protection. Most likely, this term refers to a batsman who protects the wicket from the bowler’s ball. But if you look closely, it is used when a bowler delivers the ball in such a way that it lands almost at the batsman’s feet and destroys the wicket with a bounce. In this case, the bowler is said to have broken through castled, and the player with the bat is called as beaten by yorker. Why the Yorker? It is the name in cricket for a bowler who delivers balls directly to the batsman’s feet. They are considered to be one of the most difficult players in cricket.
