Re: Will be out or six?
In the extremely unlikely event that this could happen - it is more likely to be a six than an out - since some part of the ball has touched the ball beyond the boundary, and you can't rightly say that the fielder is fully in control of the ball - since he doesn't even...
Coaching Course - Session 2
We'd the second session of the coaching course today - and I'm bloody wrecked after it!! We warmed up with a game quite like stumpball, but the objective was to complete 10 passes to score a point. I couldn't breathe after it, which I was a bit surprised by. I'm...
Re: new grip changers
You have to admit the squid looks cool though! The other one? I'm not sure what manner of slagging I'd get if the lads found that in my bag!
Re: Bat Grip
If it's happening on a forward defense then you're probably not getting over it enough.
In this picture you can see how the bat is at the wrong angle - If the ball is hitting it at this point in the shot it can't help but go in the air. In fact it doesn't even really look like...
Re: baseball pitches in cricket
I play indoor cricket with a baseball player - who bowls baseball variations all the time. For the most part they just produce different types of slower balls, but on occasion the ball does dip late with his "curveball" - which actually just looks like a fast...

Re: Australia in India
Run rate is good - just a bit worrying that there are two wickets down already - really need to make it to close of play without losing any more. And Krejza ... wow!
On Nelson now - though I don't think that means anything to Aussies, does it?
The Mystery of Timing
Just had my last session of work related indoor cricket! A record showing of three turned up strangely, so we just had a single wicket competion. Two overs batting in the innings - one against each of the other two bowling. In the time we had we managed to get in three...
Re: Bat Grip
A good way to practice this is to get a squash ball or something and put it in the palm of your right hand - then try to bat while supporting the ball but not squashing it.
Re: Bangladesh in South Africa
Wow, this could be a major upset. SA posted 118 in 14 overs and Bangladesh have 58 for 2 in the 5th over in reply! Required RR is only around 7.5
Re: Ask the Umpire!
Was watching the text commentary for the T20 (SA v Bangladesh) and saw the following:
"4.2 Syed Rasel to Ontong, no run
4.2 Syed Rasel to Ontong, 5 wides, Wide down leg. Keeper standing up to the stumps had no chance of stopping that.Lady Luck seems to favour the...
Re: Bangladesh in South Africa
South Africa 43/0 after 4 overs!!!! I guess that answers that!
DAMN TIMING: 43/1 just as I was about to post :mad:
Update: Rain delay after 7.3 overs due to thunderstorm.
SA 71 for the loss of 2.
Ontong and de Villiers at the crease, current rate 9.46 rpo
Re: Bangladesh in South Africa
T20 just kicked off - Bangladesh won the toss and chose to field! This seems a bit strange as the commentator on cricinfo has said:
"The pitch seems to be excellent for batting. Hard surface, no green grass, not too much moisture"
Will be good to see how it...
