non-striker

Waiting cricket batsman

In cricket, the non-striker is the batsman standing at the bowler's end while their partner faces the delivery.

The non-striker waits ready to run if the striker hits the ball, but takes no active part in the current delivery: The non-striker was caught backing up too far and got run out.
