It's both.Cricket is a bat and ball game. But it is also considered a sport, due to being a form of competitive physical activity.
in most cases the bat
Usually it would be "There is a bat and ball."
When a ball is being struck by a bat it certainly exerts a reaction force on the bat. But the bat does not move backward because the reaction is not enough to move the bat as it is much heavier than the ball. The reaction force is felt by the person who strikes the ball with the bat through his arm. If the ball is heavier than the ball the bat will surely get the reaction force and move back.
The answer will depend on whether you mean a bat for some sport - and in that case, which sport, or the mammal.
