Well I'll start off by asking the question do you keep the Aussie way or the English way?

If you dont know the difference then they are the English usullay take the ball standing straight on infront of there body where as the aussie style is to move across and take it on the inside thigh.

Mate I had started a thread before that which style of Cricket you've learnt and in that I mentioned that I learn the Aussie style,So I keep in the Aussie Way

Whenever I've kept with tennis ball it has been Aussie style for slow bowlers and English style for quicks (which aren't that many).

How hard is it, really, to throw with Keeper's gloves? I've tried, and found you can kinda do it if you roll it out of your fingers, but a lot of keepers say it is very tough.

 

[shubhrayu]

If you've got a chance to run out the batsman remove your gloves and the throw the ball using you inner gloves
