A yorker is a ball that is bowled and lands at or near the feet of the batsman instead of bouncing on the pitch at a normal distance. They are used to prevent a batter from being able to score a lot and give good chance of taking a wicket.
Adding more into it, a yorker delivery restricts batsman to swing his bat and rather play more defensive to save wicket.
