Re: Bowling advice Patience my friend is a virtue. When I was a swing bowler, even my pace used to be quite slow. Just in case you feel a bit loose on the field, have an energy drink before bowling.

Re: Bowling advice Well...I used to be a swing bowler before. That was the time when had a different grip on the ball. Now I have lost nearly all of my swing. Now in a way, for movement of the pitch, I rely on the seam.

Re: Bowling advice Being a medium pace bowler myself, when I am about to start a run up, I have a look-up at the batsman. Then I let myself a bit loose, and just when I am about to jump, I handle the ball much tighter(as if I am in frustration and about to blow the batsman's head off). This is...

Re: captaincy tips This is it! This is where your real captaincy skill and believe in a player comes. A good captain always brings the best out of his side. Remember, for that bowler you are his mentor when you are in the game. No matter if he bowls one bad ball or even one whole over. You...

Re: U19 Tri Series in South Africa I wish to see a cracker-packed series b/w India and SA. Always good to see some budding young players giving their best.

Re: my 20/20 world 11 it's not about leveling. it's that vettori is a good batting option as well. and well, he can offer some assistance to MS Dhoni in captaincy or lead this side himself.

Re: my 20/20 world 11 For me this is the world XI - 1. C Gayle 2. Virender Sehwag 3. G Gambhir/Brendon McCullum 4. Pietersen 5. Yuvraj Singh 6. MS Dhoni 7. Symonds/Yusuf Pathan 8. Daniel Vettori 9. M Johnson 10. D Steyn 11. Zaheer Khan

Re: Cricket Revolution - A new multiplayer cricket game yeah seems like TAOC will be the first one to release. No news from Cricket Life as well.

Re: Cricket Revolution - A new multiplayer cricket game They haven't announced the releasing date yet. I am waiting for it badly.

Re: Pakistan Players Blocked from the IPL well not only that. They are also playing a tit for tat game, because it was first Indians who canceled their tour to Pakistan due to which PCB suffered heavy losses. Recently I wrote a post on this issue - It's In Teh Game !!!

Re: Top 5 Emerging Players What ? Risk involved and yet they would attack him ? I guess you mis-typed it. In fact Mendis wasn't attacked much in the first two games since Indian batsmen could now read him well, but still as you said that there was a lot of risk involved, they just played him...

Re: Who has the best chance of a new era what ? mas cambios hacked ? :eek:

Re: Top 5 Emerging Players Well the talk is not about the number of off spinners with pin point accuracy get whacked. In fact, you have already seen how he's being hammered by the Indians. I would say that 90% of his mystery has been solved.

Re: World's Fastest Bowler ? In my opinion Tait is the fastest as of now, followed by Steyn. But today pace is not everything. We have seen batsmen like Uthappa, Gambhir walking down the track without any fear of pace. So it is the consistency that really matters. And in those rankings, Steyn...

Re: Who is the Biggest Rising Star in my opinion there's a tie between Duminy and Ishant Sharma. you guys saw him bowl today against Sri Lanka ? He is proving to be very consistent now. While Duminy is playing in what could be perhaps the best form of his life !

Re: Hitting the ball outside leg.. Yeah !!! After all, practice makes a man perfect.

Re: The corridor of uncertainty I used to have a similar problem playing the ball in corridor of uncertainty. What I did was shuffled a bit across my stumps. Which obviously meant that the ball is coming straight to me. So I would advice you if you can shuffle a bit across. Don't shuffle much...

Re: Top 5 Emerging Players Yeah. Once a team read him properly, he won't as effective as he has been in past. He is simply going to be whacked (no offense to Mendis fans). We have seen India recovoring and reading him much better last year during the ODI series in Sri Lanka.

Re: Top 5 Emerging Players I definitely agree to you. He does have the potential to cement his place in the Australian side.

Re: Top 5 Emerging Players I agree to you...he needs to keep up the momentum and confidence he gained playing this t20. And as far as comparing is concerned, I would say it shouldn't take place. Gilly was a different class, while Warner is still young and inexperienced. You never know ; one...
