    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    I don't really care about him attacking me, he's a bully who does that in almost every post, so I'm used to it by now. What I don't like is when bullies like him pick on the vulnerable. He openly verbally attacked people on the autistic spectrum, saying that they would be the type of people who...

    I know you think you're being funny, Chino, but mocking the disabled is really no laughing matter.

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    I'm sure Neville will be back soon to clarify exactly which category of people with mental health issues he was insulting. If you don't like the way I pulled him up on his bigoted and bullying remarks, why don't you step up to the mark and pull him up yourself? As a community, we need to make...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    Why, so you can mock disabled people without being pulled up on it?

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    Do you know the difference between the past and future tenses, Chino? "I didn't attack anyone." is past tense. I think its completely appropriate and necessary to speak out against another user who openly mocks and disparages disabled people. If fact - I would strongly encourage you to join...

    I'm very glad to see you endorsing my recommendation Chino.

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    I didn't attack anyone. I just said that if what he said was true, then 160 overs was a lot in the day, and asked him if I had understood him correctly. No sarcasm, nothing aggressive, just making polite conversation and showing friendly interest in the lad's weekend. YOU then attacked ME...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    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.

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    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.

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    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.

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    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...

    Plastic Balls For Practice

    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

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    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...

    Plastic Balls For Practice

    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?

    How Do You Control Yourself After Playing A Good Shot?

    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)...

    Wrist Spin Bowling (part Five)

    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...
