    mongoose mmi3

    Looks like Mongoose released a new range for the Cor3 and the MMi3. Is it just me or do the new ones have edges that are a little bit bigger than the previous bats? More images here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=243723&id=247737146327 They've released batting gloves and pads as...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four)

    Then Cricinfo and the ICC must be from another planet as well: As the ICC recently admitted, some degree of elbow straightening has been detected in 99% of bowlers, including the likes of Courtney Walsh and Glenn McGrath. By the letter of the law as it has stood for over a century, thus...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four)

    By the way, is there any way to measure my bowling speed accurately without spending a fortune? Is it even possible to do-it-yourself?

    Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four)

    Unrelated to wrist spin but it's amazing that people still think the rules were amended because of Murali. You do know that the likes of McGrath, Lee, and pretty much 99% of the bowlers the ICC tested, straightened their elbow more than what the rules allowed at that time - 10 degrees... Murai...

    Steven Smith, video link, general thoughts

    Yeah, that's how I watch all my test cricket :) I didn't want to post them here as they're a bit shady, like torrents. Not sure if the admins here will be fine with me linking to them. But check your inbox for my pm, sending you and Dave the list.

    Steven Smith, video link, general thoughts

    There are many streaming sites out there on which you can watch it live. There's also a guy that makes his own highlights videos of every match and posts them on his website. The video quality is horrible though but better than nothing. Pm me if you want the site list...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four)

    Re: Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four) Thanks for the replies guys. Regular practice with an actual cricket ball would be the best but the thing is I'm stuck in the USA till Dec/Jan. And the facilities are non-existent here. Plus the nearest (good) cricket club is 20-30 miles away. So I figured I'd...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four)

    Re: Wrist Spin Bowling (Part Four) Would improving the strength of your fingers, the forearm muscles, and your hand's grip strength increase the revs imparted on the ball? Would it also make certain deliveries such as the flipper or the Iverson-Gleeson variation (for off spinners) easier to bowl?

    Re: mongoose mmi3 Looks great. The blade looks even shorter than I imagined it would be. Can't wait to have my own :D

    mongoose mmi3

    Re: mongoose mmi3 What's the difference between the Mongoose MMi3 Super Premium and the normal MMi3? Except the weight range and stickers, I don't see any difference. And for that matter, what's the difference between the MMi3 Custom Pro and the MMi3 Series versions? The description of both...

    Pakistan commissioner believes trio were "set-up"

    Re: Pakistan commissioner believes trio were "set-up" I wasn't terribly surprised when the Pakistani HC said this. This "it's all a cover-up" movement originally began in the Pakistani media. A few Pak news sites and a newspaper Daily Mail (unrelated to UK's Daily Mail) said that...

    matches that might've been fixed

    Re: matches that might've been fixed Oh yeah, let's consider all sensational comebacks and wins in matches involving sub-continental teams to be fixed. Jumping the gun much? :rolleyes: By your "logic" (or lack thereof), THAT ODI between Australia and South Africa might have been fixed too...
