Question

What is the correct feet position for a right-handed batsman as shown in the image?

Options

• Feet parallel, slightly apart, in line with the stumps.

• Front foot ahead, angled towards slips.

• Feet together, behind the crease.

• Back foot outside crease, front foot towards mid-on.

Answer 1

Feet parallel, slightly apart, in line with the stumps.

Explanation:

A balanced batting stance has the feet slightly apart, with the weight evenly distributed for good balance and movement. The other positions do not provide the stable, ready stance shown.
