The ICC stated that it has been moving away from the term “batsman” for the previous four years, with the term “batter” being used consistently in. Commentary and across the organization’s media.
The MCC‘s decision to change the rules of the game to ‘batter’ was ‘welcomed,’ according to the body’s acting. CEO Geoff Allardice.
Mr. Allardice stated in a statement, “The .ICC has been using the term batter for some time now throughout our platforms and in commentary, and we appreciate the. MCC’s decision to include it within the Laws of cricket.
“This is a logical and somewhat overdue evolution of our sport, and now our batters, like bowlers, fielders, and wicket keepers, are gender-neutral.” He claims it’s a minor alteration that will have a big influence on. Cricket‘s perception as a more inclusive sport.
