Forty-five

The main task of fielders is not to let the ball fly off the boundaries of the court (so the batting team will immediately take 4 or 6 runs) and also not to allow the batsman to earn a large number of runs by moving from wicket to wicket. To do this, in order to quickly and efficiently catch a batsman’s strike in cricket, there are a number of positions for fielders in the stadium.

The forty-five position also belongs to such places. The position got its name because of its location on the field relative to the wicket (at an angle of 45 degrees). If you take a right-handed batsman, then forty-five is on the on (leg) side, between the points fine leg and square leg. Forty-five is located near the border of the 30-yard circle. An alternative name for this place is backward short leg.
