From a batsman’s point of view, there are two ways of scoring runs in the shortest format of the game. One is by relying on sheer timing without generating power from the speed of the bat.
On the other hand, the other way to score runs is to generate immense power from the bat, especially while targeting the larger boundaries. However, at the same time, it is more important to maintain a scintillating strike rate in a bid to escalate the team’s scoreboard.
The faster the team scores runs, the better they have a great chance of posting a huge total which would put them on the front foot and it also gives the team an extra edge to win games.
