In cricket, it can be difficult to reach massive targets in any of the three formats. The batters need to be able to put the opposition under pressure when the target is big, be it on an easy or a difficult pitch, especially in the ODI format, where it is an uphill task for the batters to score a ton with a big target in front of them.
