Agricultural shot is a term used in which of the following sports?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Cricket.

The term "Agricultural Shot" is used in cricket. It refers to a type of shot that is considered unorthodox or crude, often made in a haphazard manner, typically by an inexperienced or casual player. The shot is usually executed without proper technique, often leading to an awkward or unintended result. The term is sometimes used humorously to describe a player's lack of finesse or skill when playing the ball, especially in a manner that seems more fitting for a farmer than a professional cricketer.
