    i have been in the zone twice, the first time i was in a junior country championship final, and blocked out 15 overs to win the title, and the second time, captaining my school side, i would usually open the batting, but in the second innings with no chance of an outright i came in at 8 and hit...

    How are you doing in ICC? (any version)

    i have just started a season with yorkshire, and decided to skip through a couple of seasons, only signing youth players, and "starting from scratch" if you like. i have got some decent players, and with coaching i think they could be ok.

    its rediculous how much they change it. think back the days when mick foley was doing a great job as commissioner, they need somebody with that sort of charisma, and cant be pushed around

    i think kane is covering up for what he did to the undertaker, and taker will return before summerslam, and expose what kane did, and they will have a match at summerslam, lets hope for an inferno

    How are you doing in ICC? (any version)

    Your Cricket Playing the wristy flick shot

    my advice, dont flick balls to leg off your off stump. but if your detirmind to do it then get your hands on a bowling machine, set it to your off stump and just go for it, spend hours doing it and you will pick up your own way of doing it. record yourself and look at what your doing wrong, and...

    Your Cricket How should i be playing spin bowling

    spin bowling is the hardest to face. basically what i do is if its a leg spinner (im right handed) i try not to leave my crease until im really set, and sure of the bounce and turn of the pitch, because its so easy to get stumped. with an off spinner though its much easier to get your body...

    matthew wade is the best idea if haddin ever gets injured or loses form, he averages 50 for me in tests. siddle, hilfy and johnson are quite good bowlers for me too

    Your Cricket Fast Bowling Thread

    yeah i can bowl outswingers until the cows come home, new ball or old. whoever told you that you cant bowl outswingers front on was very wrong. with a front on action it makes it so much easier to swing the ball imo

    Your Cricket Fast Bowling Thread

    im about 174cm, so not really tall, so i dont get a heap of bounce. i do try to vary the ball quite a bit, i used to bowl off spin so i have my off cutters down pat, but i find is hard to bowl leg cutters at pace, they are usually sprayed wide. i dont vary my actions at all, i have played a...

    Your Cricket Fast Bowling Thread

    i personally bowl medium pace, definately no more than that. i have an 8 step run up, and bowl with a front on action. i am quite an accurate bowler, and i can swing a ball a fair way. the only thing that lets me down is my pace, with the ball not coming very fast the batsman can adjust to the...

    Your Cricket solo practice - where do you do it?

    for bowling, go to your local nets, put a stump in the ground, and work out where your good line and length is, and place some sort of marker on the pitch. then just bowl and try to hit that spot. it also wouldnt hurt if you filmed yourself and had a look at your action, and see what you are...
