I didn't get to respond for some time. I did read it though. So I realized by releasing the ball later, I was bowling quicker and the ball was skidding and going much faster. I also subconciously stopped imparting side spin and therefore I have a quicker delivery now. This is something I...
Things have changeda quite a bit since last season. I'm playing slightly higher division in the 50 over format, but also captaining our T20 team. I quite matured since last season, I'm able to use my angle, turn, flight and set fields based on my strength and weakness that I couldn't last year...
Thanks for the suggestion guys, I'll start doing all of that and RIP my grammar and spelling. I was so out of it that I didn't know what the heck I was typing lol. This injury reminds me of Mike Tyson's famous quote "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth". In my head, I was...
LOL the issue is i'm on the slower side of the my Spin bowling, even though I vary my pace, flight and dip he has enough time to pick and play.
Someone wanna be dick coach moron, made me sprint at full speed while I wasn't finished stretching, I pulled my hipflexor and the doc says I should...
There is a new player at my academy and I'm having issue bowling leg spin to him. He is a compulsive sweeper but a very good one. He slog sweeps, paddle sweeps, you name any kind of sweep, he does it. I bowl at off stump, he goes across and sweeps, if I bowl outside off stump the motherf***er...
This was exactly my plan, but the issue was when I got hit for 2-3 boundaries in the first over that was the end of it. and it doesn't help when your whole team is stacked with "Allrounders". I never even got to be in the zone in most matches, even in those games that I did really well.
That is exactly why I dropped my variations and just stuck to variations of leg break and googlies. Generally when I'm warmed up in nets, all I have to do is think about bowling flighted deliveries or quicker deliveries and my body will do its thing on its own. When in game, without getting...
Not a bad season. Where do you play ?
Mostly bad bowling, the issue was waking up at 5:30 am for an 8AM start. No matter how well I was rested, it was just hard to bowl well from ball 1 in a T20 game. This was due to not warming up, generally in nets I bowl shit for the first 10-15 minutes...
How did everyone's season go ? I had a pretty inconsistent season, I was put into the 20 overs side, some days i finished it off with 2-3 wickets for 15 to 20 runs and some days I was taken off after going for 30-40 runs in first 2 overs. Something has to be done regarding this.
Today I started of bowling 2 full tosses in the first 2 balls that were hit for sixes, then bowled 2 singles and I completed my 1st over giving up 14 runs. That would also be my last over for the day. On top of that, I did scoring book since i was a #11 batsmen and the temperature today was 34*...
"Reverse Googly" is the name I want to give. It just sounds more devastating, Afridi actually used to bowl this few times. Which finger do you spin it out of ?
The Indian Paul Adams aka Shivil Kaushik who played in the 2017 IPL season has arrived at our club.

This actually gives me more confidence, this means our club's spin bowling is lacking and I can potentially impress our...
Just got destroyed by a David Boon look alike in his late 40s for 4 sixes. He hit me for a six in the first ever ball I bowled. He destroyed our quicks too but hit me for two gigantic sixes which almost killed a dog. My teammates were very supportive but their body language said otherwise. I'm...
Even kids who held cricket bats before learning how to crawl have no idea how leg spin works. Couple of younger guys ask me questions, but they are never in the mood to learn, they are looking for me to say one thing that will somehow miraculously change their performance forever. One of the...
Great stuff, I too have recovered after being hit few times this season. I'm actually impressed with myself, I got smashed 2 weeks ago in a game for 14 runs in 3 deliveries after bowling a maiden, 2 wicket over and I literally didn't care. EVen today I got smashed for a full toss six and a...
