Best Answer

This is a very good question. There is no real reason for it, but the explanation I can offer you is, 10-15 years ago, left handed clubs were rare, especially for juniors, that's why on tour at the minute there are very few left handed players. Today, left handed clubs are still rare and don't come in all the options you would find in right handed clubs, simply because there is not a big enough market. Junior clubs are also very rare in left hand.

You will notice a cricket bat can be used by either a right or left handed player, so when a player picks up a bat for the first time, they will use whichever orientation feels most natural. A Golf club can only be used one way.

A couple of interesting side notes would be, Phil Mickelson writes right handed, but plays left handed and when Tiger Woods picked up a club for the first time he swung left handed as he was mirroring his father Earl Woods.

How does batting order matter?

Well with the batting order the cricket team will tend to put their best batsmen first so that they can start scoring as quickly as possible. They always have the batsmen go before the all rounders (people who are good at batting and bowling) then after that they will bring in the bowlers. They do it like this because they dont want the people who cant bat to waste their time so they dont score as many runs.
