Bowled alright in the nets, got a ball to almost hit a batsman in the shoulder off a good length, should have seen his face... priceless. Batted alright, Although i got out when some of the 1st grade quicks got there, I'm glad as-well some guys got hit in the box... not fun.

Off-spiners are desperate guys who want to be bowlers but can't bowl anything but off-spin, it's easy as piss to bowl.

Nah our training seasons are on tuesday and thursday but tomorrow is sign-up and a training season.

This will be where i tell you all about my season, ill be playing in u-17's this year (hopefully i will be facing real pace, none of the low 100km/h crap i got last year). First training session tomorrow i'll tell you all about it after.

Haha yeah i don't mind my beamer myself, it likes to follow the batsman down leg.

Thats not a reverse reverse sweep it was a leg glance, played poorly.

Ah i feel sorry for you man, nothing better then getting a slinger right.

Not exactly 100% correct but your on the right track. Just youtube Jeff Thomson and you will understand real sling not the flicky crap that Malinga bowls.

Yeah i agree with tum tum, but.. themer has a good point i suppose if you used the right kind of action you could flick your wrist and generate a-bit more pace but it would be hardly noticeable. Best way to generate pace, bowl sling.

Yeah i have quite an unorthodox action as-well, but me being much bigger then thommo was and not as fit... yet, I can't be as flexible as he was so i will never match his pace (i would like to bowl that fast but i just don't think i could) but i can make a ball do some crazy things. For...

Sorry who? I reckon it's like Viv Richards.

I will tell you how i do it but i bowl sling, so it may be of no use. To bowl a swinger i just grip the ball how i normally do and if it swings it swings i can get it to go either way. But my cutters are my best weapon, i bowled leg spin for a while and could turn a ball a long way, so for a...

I would like to explain my style it's not actually a pull. I was a really good golfer when i was very young like 4 maybe 5 something like that, i had perfect form when hitting the ball. I've found now cricket and i think i adapted my golf swing to hitting a cricket ball. All i do is hit the...

Mate i wouldn't say there's a "best grip" it differs between person to person, Just experiment a bit.

I just developed a yorker an out-swinger and an in-swinger TODAY. It was fun getting my dad with an out-swinger, best feeling ever.

I've just dicovered a new thing for my action. I land with my left foot first then cross my legs then land on my left foot again i feel it has helped me with geting though the crease alot more smoothly. I reccomend trying this if it doesn't work oh well thats life.

I feel thigh pads get in the way. I'm not dissing anyone who wears one i know if i got hit badly a few times i might consider one, until i heal up. But i tend to get out of the way or play a glance. Always scares me though.

Personally i've only ever used one once.... never again but i would say try the one i used it was blue and white and from memory it was a puma or slazenger not sure though.

Yeah i'm 15 i weight 115 kg and i'm 6 1" so it doesn't take much getting used to a heavier bat. I used a light bat for a while but i felt i was always getting out because i was playing the shots to quickly. A heavier bat slows me down so that i time the shots correctly.

Stuck with a heavy bat? No i love them. Yeah i just realized that about 3 or 4 days ago my shots are a-lot more consistent if i hold with a looser bottom hand. Thanks for verifying that thats what i was doing that was helping a bit.
