Same end as Saturday mate

[Dhiraj]

Depends what you mean by deadly. I always thought my deadliest spell was when I walked three batsmen, breaking two toes and a nose. Okay, they weren't wickets, but they couldn't continue playing.

would love to do that but just dont have that kind of pace. But still had the batsman duckin and weavin!!!!

I'm always curious when one guy bowls so well and others don't appear to. I know when I took 8-12 I was the only one who swung the ball all day on a flat deck. I took 8-22 in one league game at Windsor because the sun was setting behind my left arm over and the last 4 bats couldn't see it lol

I've often had games where I bowl 10 or 12 overs at an economy rate of around 1, but only get one wicket as either the batsmen simply can't get bat on the ball, or it's bouncing over the stumps off a good length. Generally, the other end then gets 5 wickets, frustratingly. All about bowling in pairs!

I was once bought on to finish off the tail... figures ended up as 0.4 -0-0-4
 Short and sweet!

Agree with this, I've had many an occasion where I've bowled really well and got zip, with wickets falling at the other end.  Swings and roundabouts, I just had my turn that day.

Possibly my spell of 9 overs 7-29 a couple weeks back. Took a triple wicket maiden in that

[A-Swing-And-A-Miss]

I guess it depends on your definition of deadly. Last season I rampaged through one teams middle and lower order and took 5 wickets in the space of 3-4 overs however I would personally class my deadliest spell as being 3-25 off 7 a couple of weeks ago. I had no support from the other end and by dismissing three top order batsmen in the space of 3 overs we actually had some sort of chance of winning it. Sadly on that day the constant filth from the other end meant that the oppo were able to nudge and nurdle their way to the end of my spell without worrying about scoreboard pressure.

None of these are deadly compared to our guy yesterday.

2 head height no balls

1 Full toss in the mid drift

1 Ball pitched on the 3rd track away from us and gully fielded it

1 Wicket off a top edge sweep.

1 Over - 2 No Balls - 3 Wides - 7 Runs - 1 Wicket 

[The Palmist]

A youngster I have been helping train bowled the spell of his life 9.4 overs 29 runs and 7 wickets

He usually gets a lot of [friendly] sledging from me when in nets so I just told him to think it was me batting and it really helped him focus and channel his aggression at the batsman.

[hopwoodbear]

took 7 for 13 in a midweek t20 last month, which included the first 7 wickets of the innings and my first ever hat trick

6 bowled and 1 lbw

it like to say i was turning it sideways and was utterly unplayable but it really wasn't that special, bowling at the wickets really does improve your chances!

[trypewriter]

0.5-0-1-1 only (part) over I've ever bowled - finished the game so deadly enough.

[Ryan]

I wouldn't say deadly but bowled 4 overs for 7 runs and 3 wickets last week. Div one centralt Yorkshire league and against the top of the league.  6 of those 7 runs were through slip.

[lukemannionzimbabwe]

In a day night tournament, playing for 3/4 my mate who is a lobby spinner and usually gets tinked came o to owl the last over with them needing 1 run to win, the over goes like this

0, W,W,0,0,W, we then went on to lose the super over, but it was flippin good

[junter97]

6 overs, 1 maiden, 10 runs and 5 wickets is probably mine, however it was against the bottom of the table team, perhaps that's why.

[LDifa]

5 for 32 off 4

Or 3 for 6 off 6

Or 3 for 16 off 6

My best three efforts, though I did like opening game last season 1 for 0 off 1
