New Delhi. You have often seen that when the players go for the Practice session on the cricket field, most batsmen have kitbags and bowlers only have bags.

There will also be a question in your mind that even the bowlers bat, so why do they bring the bag and bring it, what happens in it.
Actually, the bowlers bring bowling boots in their bags, ie spikes, which is important for them, which is of a bat for a batsman. That is, if the spikes are not right, your bowling rhythm can deteriorate and the bowlers can also be injured. Especially fast bowlers keep their boots very much. Rajasthan Royals fast bowler Jyofra Archer can also be seen working often with his boots.
Why do Geofra tear shoes?
A video of the practice session of Rajasthan Royals is going viral very fast in which his fast bowler Archer team captain Sanju Samson was seen making hole in the front of the shoes with scissors in front of Sanju Samson. When Archer was asked about this, he said that when he lands on the left leg while bowling, the right leg rubs on the ground very fast, which increases the chances of injury and infection on the thumb. That is why the order used to make a hole in the spikes of the right foot of his spike, due to which the shoe rubs less in the thumb. By the way, there is no order alone to do this, most of the fast bowlers of the world do this.
