non-strikers
Off-strike batsmen waiting
Non-strikers are workers who continue working during a strike, either by choice or because they don't support the action.
The term distinguishes those still on the job from colleagues who have walked out: Management relied on non-strikers to keep operations running.
In cricket, the non-striker is the batsman standing at the bowler's end, not currently facing delivery.
