I personally think 160 overs of cricket a day is too much, especially if you're playing the next day as well. I just expressed that opinion. Neville is just being an argumentative bellend, as usual.

Why don't you actually read what he wrote. He talks us through his own team's innings. He is clearly not talking about something that happened the week before. "The first game on saturday (u15's districts) we batted first: the first 6 guys got out, making 90 runs. so we were 6/90 when i came...

He played 42 overs batting plus however many overs bowling plus 80 overs in the afternoon.

Ah yes. The stupidest way to organise a cricket match known to mankind. He still played 160 overs in a single day. That's mental. No-one should be playing more than 120 overs a day.

So on Saturday, you played either a 45 or 50 over game (maybe more) followed by an 80 over game. Meaning 260 overs of cricket in total, or 13 hours of cricket, assuming a very generous 20 overs per hour. If we add in a quick turn around between innings and 1 hour for various breaks, then if you...

You are Michael Gove and I claim my £5.

What would you like, a quote from a qualified, professional coach?

Yes. There is plenty of proof for this. It's pretty well known and understood amongst sports professionals. My advice is don't try to reason with boogie spinner. He is immune to it

Warne arrived on the scene with all the variations Incl flipper and googly and slowly dropped everything except the slider after his shoulder surgery. Shah isn't a huge turner of the ball. Nothing like warne. Still a top bowler. Are there any rolling non spinners playing test cricket? It's...

Flipping the ball from hand to hand is just messing around. I wouldn't really describe it as practice. If you find flipping a cricket ball from hand to hand requires serious effort, perhaps spin bowling is not for you? Do you have extremely weak wrists or something?

Stereotypical answer is simply "play every ball on its merits". In reality, you might have a few thoughts running through your head. One might be to deliberately calm yourself down by premeditating to defend the next ball or steal a quick single (as the opposition won't be expecting that)...

I think I was 18ish when I realised that the romantic idea of leg spin was unhelpful, and bowling a bit quicker, fuller and straighter and actually taking lots of wickets and winning games for my team, was more fun than bowling balls then turned three feet and then got smashed for four, and I...

Most schools already do between 15 and 18. You have colts(u14) then 3rd, 2nd 1st xi etc

Ok. If I say I believe you will you calm down? How old you are, Chino?

Lol. Of course you did.

Do you mean the posts that were deleted by the mods? If you say so, son.

This poor Chino lad has had his posts removed for trolling. Think of all the time he wasted typing out all that nonsense.

I read the first paragraph, got to the bit where you're so dumb you don't even know what type of spin I bowl, and gave up. I have better things to do than read your childish rants, sorry.

I understand why you want to believe that your style of bowling is the hardest. It helps to massage your ego when your ******** up. If it's so hard, why don't you bowl finger spin? If its so easy, you'll get a tenfer every game, won't you?

A lot of people just unthinkingly repeat the same nonsense over and over again. Doesn't make it true. The idea that one form of bowling is harder than another is logically impossible.
