i personally despise those dibbly dobbly bowlers...really slow bowlers... if you know what i mean.
-
Never feared a bowler (or the ball).
The day I feel fear playing cricket will be the day I know to stop playing.

Left arm spinners good ones the curse of english players

There must be a reason why no left arm spinner bowls a doosra except herath if i recall correctly against india when he bowled the india captain through the gate...but it was the ball flicked out of the front of the hand.
-
Slow bowlers at the beggining off my innings.
And bowlers that get that dip!
-
The bowlers at the start of my innings when I haven't got my eye in....
-
Really c**p, really slow spinners, especially at the start of my innings, the potential for utter humiliation is too much...
-
dibbly dobblers for sure
-
Dirty spinners tie me knots some times.. ???
-
Ha ha!! I am the ultimate dibbly-dobbly nemesis them!!! Slow swingers from left arm round (with a bit of dip too!)
Still haven't conquered my fear of the short ball, don't always seem to pick it up. Struggle with the ball fired in at the hip to. Still - good excuse to net more to get over it!
-
erratic quick bowling
-
^^ same as above, especially the ones who don't get much bounce and ball just stays really low.....two wides down the leg , a wide on the off then a sudden ball that stays low on to the stumps he gets an LBW.
-
I have no fear anymore, I can ether hit it or I'm out!
You guys must hate me as a slow off spinner as well, opened yesterday and ended up with 2 for 18 off 8 overs, got one clean bowled through the gate with a very slow moon ball. :D
-
Hate granade throwers, I tend to like pace bowlers, even with bit of swing (but not too pace for my level)
-
Any seamer who bowls big, late in-swingers early on in my innings...
-
Quick left armers who move it away. Doesn't matter how much I'm in, I always feel I'm fighting to keep my wicket intact.
-
Don't fear it as such but I don't like people, especially when I play mid-week who come on just bowling at you in order to hurt you!
-
I have been accused of fear or fast bowling, I have always thought this was because I am offside dominated and look to make room. I admit when I was young I hated pace bowling but I worked hard to get more into line and work it to leg. Now I am solid to pace, I find I am weaker against slow medium swing due to over aggression and being early on the shot.

Now I'm sure a few of you will agree tat we fear getting out to that 13 yr old who's bowling and were trying to smash him put of the park. Mostly because of the stick you know you'll get from your team if you get out to them
-
The old veteran that bowls slow loopy balls but seems to always appear on the most wickets chart at the end of the season...
-
I fear dilly doblers, they ruin cricket

I dislike the old veterans also! And guys who bowl the one that looks like it's going down the legside then hoops back in and smacks you on the leg
-
Bowlers with unorthodox actions. Just can't find any timing with these type of bowlers
-
Kids, OAPs, one-armed bowlers... Anyone which is not 'normal' is usually mocked by team mates!
-
We have an off spinner in our team that has an action exactly like Paul Adams. So annoying to face, especially with that slow wrong un he bowls.
-
Left arm over... I struggle with the angle.
Any bowler who consistently puts it on a nagging line and length. Not bothered if fast, medium or slow. I would rather someone fast or does loads with it (swing or spin) as long as I know I'll get that loose ball. I hate getting bogged down and with those bowlers that give you nothing I tend to try and force it and be my own worst enemy.

Seconded.
The blokes that have played on the same track for 30 years and know exactly where to put it, no pace, guile, just on the mark...
-
Slow spinners especially at the start of my innings when my feet seem to refuse to move
-

Same here. It's a constant battle with temptation to not go for the big hit because some of their deliveries look prime for putting out the ground, but then it comes slower than you think and then bang - caught out...
Don't have an issue with quicks, expect one left arm bowler at our club who is quick and has an action that let's him swing the ball sharply in at right handers. When he pitches it up he's tough to play, but he has a propensity to start pitching it short.
Spin is always a fun challenge early in an innings. But when I get set I become more comfortable with it. I don't get out much to spinners though.
-
I'm with Buzz on this one. The only bowlers I fear are the quick ones who have no idea where its going. Netting last week, we have a very quick youngster, and he will bowl the odd beamer (completely accidentally), but it doesn't make you want to bat against him anymore!
-
From a keeping point of view I'd say the loose spinner, the one who throws in a quicker ball that nearly always pins me.
-
I fear shahid afridi when he can bowl in the mid 80s, unbelievable JEFF !!!!!
-
Pie Chuckers
-
I'm with Buzz.
But I also hate really good bowlers who can figure me out and bowl at my huge blind spot.
-
I also have particular dislike for those very slow bowlers but only in 20/20 matches (especially when batting first). I can't be alone in this because we have someone who is (in)famous in these parts for bowling incredibly slow deliveries and he is deadly in evening matches but he then gets absolutely hammered on Saturdays.
Generally if I can get through a couple of overs, I then get myself out although often it's in quite unusual ways.
-
Sorry for the cliche but big fast bowlers that bowl short and at the body are my nightmare
-
Those slow medium pacers...the ball seems to take an eternity to reach you and it is usually pitched up as well...
-
Slow bowling of all varieties for sure.
In fact I get a lot of comments on how well I play pace (because I play the cut, pull and hook instinctively) but how I'm completely at the opposite end of the scale when playing spin in particular.
I think I've almost lost the battle before the bowler has even started to run up - As I think oh no, not this rubbish. Part of my mental game I need to work on as I'd imagine pro's thinking here is my chance to break free.
-
Definitely left arm over the wicket bowlers, don't mind inswingers but balls that angle across me are awful!
-
Not really one more than any other. I could get myself out to anything...
-
Many will laugh when they see this. Off spin . I don't know what happens to me when I see a proper off spinner .. :( still haven't figured out how to play them unless they bowl under your nose .
-
Spin bowlers that bowl variations, my footwork is shabby so I can get myself in a right state
