No man’s land

There are two teams who compete in cricket. The first club is responsible for serving and catching balls, while the second club is responsible for hitting them. A bowler, fielders and a wicket-keeper make up the members of the batting team. In order to ensure that the ball is caught by the fielders in the smallest amount of time feasible after the batter has struck the ball, fielders are positioned on the playing field during the serve.

On the other hand, it is still not feasible to completely fill the playground with field players. On the field, there are areas that are designated as no man’s land. Due to the fact that the ball has just flown into an empty zone, the fielder will need more time in order to successfully grab it.

By the way, sometimes at matches, the no man’s land area is made artificially. In order for the batter to be able to notice this zone and hit the ball in that particular direction, this is not only required but also vital. Since the fielders know about this area in advance, there is a chance to catch the batsman right away.
