cricket player lower his hands while catching a ball to absorb the force exerted by the body on hand

Here the body is the ball. ... Therefore, the cricketer lowers his hand, thus reducing the speed of the ball
slowly to zero instead of immediately reducing it to zero. This
decreases the rate of change of momentum and hence the force exerted on his hand is also decreased, thus it saves his hand from getting hurt.
