How To Stand At The Wicket

Sport : Cricket

When the bowler balls at you, you will have enough to deal with from a good bowler to get the ball away for runs, so you don't want to worry about being off balance or caught out.

Therefore a good stance is important - it sets you up for the stroke that you will play whether defensive or attacking in response.

Therefore the key is to ensure that you are well balanced and also relaxed, so that you can respond nimbly and quickly to the ball.

Also remember that you should meet the ball in defence with as straight a bat as possible.
