You need to consider the backgrounds the first three are ruined by the shipping containers and rollers.

Sorry to be negative but it's not. It's a photo of the batsman. the bowler is out of focus and secondary to the photo. To get the bowler properly in that shot you need to be on the off side of the stumps and focussing on the stumps at the far end then getting the bowler in the air as he passes them.
No ball no picture as far as the papers are concerned.

If I were you, to deal with the white uniforms, I'd be under-exposing the image so that their uniforms are the key focus metering area. Then in post, you can bring up the shadows. It's the way that I edit a lot of cricket shots and helps deal with the over-exposed look of a lot of images when you take shots of white uniforms in the day.

good action captured here.

whites look tad warm but often unavoidable during cricket in bright light,
I often dial in some - compensation to help the whites a bit, so long as it doesnt darken the images overall
