I think you need to shoot if possible from the side (or near) the sight screen and choose the end which has the best lighting for you, this way you will then cut out the space from wicket to batsman, particularly as most of them take one pace down the pitch.
Good focus and action, they always look great with the bails flying.
As a kid we played "French Cricket" legs together and can't more your feet and out when your legs get hit with the ball, not so bad with a tennis ball but playing with a cricket ball made you concentrate harder....:)

Not bad, but on some the faces are definitely underexposed.
