While catching a cricket ball the fielder lowers his hands backwards. Why?

उत्तर
- When the fielder lowers his hands backward, he increases the value of time of the collision and so retardation is decreased.
- Hence retarding force becomes lesser than before and the palm of the fielder is not hurt very much.
