Recording from the boundary is a straightforward setup that doesn’t require permission from the opposing team, although it’s courteous to ask. To optimize the view, choose a location with some elevation to minimize obstructions by on-field players. The ideal angle is roughly 20 degrees to the left of the bowler’s stumps (see diagram below). This position is advantageous because most bowlers bowl on the left-hand side of the stumps, so the non-striker batter is less likely to obstruct the camera’s view.
