The correct answer is option 3 - Deciduous forests. Willow for a cricket bat is obtained from trees that belong to the deciduous forest biome. Deciduous forests are characterized by trees that shed their leaves in autumn. These forests are found in temperate regions with moderate rainfall. Willow wood, known for its lightness and flexibility, is commonly used in making cricket bats due to its excellent shock-absorbing properties. It provides the desired balance and flexibility needed for batting. It is important to note that willow wood used for cricket bats is not obtained from tropical forests (option 1), rainforests (option 2), or coniferous forests (option 4).
