Bowling a Yorker

[mickey_2004]

does anyone know how to bowl a wicket taking yorker, icant seen to do it, it either gets blocked or they hit it anyway,

also i was england v new zealand, bowling to styris, and he did a reverse sweep! how do you do that?

Reverse sweep is the late cut (front foot) with the six hit key. Yorkers are very difficult to take wickets with; try varying the pace and not bowling them too often. I've only ever had one bowled with a yorker although I've had several caught at long on.

the only time i took a wicket with a yorker, he some how edged it to first slip.

cheers bout the reverse sweep

Tailenders hardly do much against yorkers. Use a good bowler and get them bowled. Not much point of doing the same to main batsmen(Although they mistime too often)
