What random thing do you wish you could do?

I wish I could replicate the swing I used to bowl back then.

Maybe it might be the conditions? Like in England maybe you would be able to swing the cricket ball without too much effort and be a natural. So maybe you haven’t lost it all, I’m only guessing at this because climate conditions in India are not really in favour of swing well I think more reverse swing than appose to a natural swinging new cricket ball.

You could have been the new James Anderson had you been born in England, who’s to say.

Yup - Ive picked up a couple of books. They all seem to be variations on a theme but will try the Memory Palace technique first up I think

Hehe, that's too much! Eventually, my stock ball used to be an out swinger for a right hander, but now it just goes straight where my length saves me, have been out of leather ball cricket for almost six months now. Will get back hopefully next month or so. Then I might eventually stick to the basics and might get all these working.

@ContrarianUmp
Well whatever works for you, because it is something personal to your own interests which will work best for you in the end.

Do I like James Bond? No, it is the same movie just recycled over and over. I liked the day of the dead scene at the beginning of Spectre then soon got bored and ended up turning it off. He will always destroy his Aston Martin, so just give him a ford focus or something just as bad.

I was taught the card method years ago but yes the You Tube video does sound like the same concept.

@Ali.
Cool, Ali. I hope you find some rhythm.

I wish I could sing, instead of sounding like 2 cats having it off.

Your wishes worked! I played a short game today, bowled with an old white ball and bagged three wickets reversing to the right handers, surprisingly I hit 26 off 42, probably my best score(being a no. 11). This wasn't a proffesional match or what but we played in the ground so can say say it was a proper cricket game.

That’s fantastic news,.
I’m very happy for you, well done.

Nay.

Not be awkward around real life people. Seriously. Being able to start and hold conversations is almost like witchcraft to me.

I know exactly how you feel.

I wish I could fly to Silicon Valley.

And then you'd magically become a homeless man in Silicon Valley.

Homeless man with an idea.
