Bank in slip意思

"Bank in slip" is a term used in cricket, not in banking or any other general context. In cricket, it refers to a fielding position where a fielder stands in the slip cordon, which is a line of fielders positioned close to the batsman on the off side (right side for a right-handed batsman, left side for a left-handed batsman). The slips are positioned to catch the ball if the batsman edges the ball, i.e., hits it with the edge of the bat.

The term "bank" in this context might refer to the fielder standing in a position that is slightly deeper than the traditional slip positions, providing a deeper catching position. This could be likened to a "bank" of fielders, where the term "bank" is used metaphorically to suggest a line or row of fielders.

However, it's important to note that this term is not commonly used in cricket and might be a colloquial or regional term, or perhaps a mistake. In standard cricket terminology, there are first slip, second slip, third slip, and so on, depending on how many fielders are positioned in the slip cordon. The position of the slips is crucial for catching edge shots off the bat, which can result in the batsman being dismissed.
