Mark has been served these balls by a bowler who is bowling him dollies. Can you imagine how many can Mark hit like this if Bumrah bowls to him.
It's not easier when a ball comes swinging at 90+ milestone or a spinner turns it hugely at higher angles. It's not as easier done than as it's said in the video.
As I said baseball batters definitely know about bat speed so when and if they make contact with cricket ball, ball might travel more distance.
The bowler and the pitcher were both not throwing at max speed or capability. The baseball pitcher was throwing 80mph. There are 14 year olds that throw harder than that. Agree it's not a perfect test but the science around the size of bat and the way the ball moves and we perceive with with our eyes does kind of make your assertion that baseball hitting is much easier seem incorrect. Both are very hard.
I also don't think it was a fair comparison to pit Mark Reynolds who in his prime was a top 50 hitter in the world against a guy that probably couldn't even make an IPL squad.

Huuuuh!! I'm now gonna escalate my offense at you and all the Americans.. 😂
You probably didn't take your lessons seriously. Do you even know why Cricket is still played in USA and in its soon to be 51st state? But Baseball has nothing to zero presence in most popular cricketing world?

Probably because it is easier. Haha

Probably? like always you aren't sure. But I know Baseball is much easier because the batter only has to deal with full toses, which are the easiest balls in Cricket.

You are anti science.

I'm not but the way that video was created probably by an American was certainly biased.
