we all have flaws that can be worked out by a decent bowler i tend to go across too much but rarely get out lbw if ever easy to spot a flaw much harder to exploit it

true but not that many with that pace and acurate below minor/county standard when i bowled that pace was not as acurate as i would have liked say 4/6 where i wanted them but yeah decent off legs due to hockey really annoys bolwers when work balls onto leg from outside off but start with all three stumps showing due to big trigger being 6ft 4

Well works great for me as bowlers see all three stumps so think easy wicket just bowl straight then my trigger comes in and get a few easy boundries before they figure it out to bowl a little wider hey dave you must get a few funny looks when you ask for off as that is pretty rare or is so in my circles

I take a guard of leg and I play predominantly on the offside but will put anything on my legs away. my trigger takes me onto middle so a massive LBW candid :L

roco the thing is i ask for 3 guards when i take wicket i think as wayne told me if you ask for off stump only then your on a hiding to nothing but if there is no movement either in the air or off the pictchand your set you should not miss a straight one.

i have always believed that a good player takes balls that are straight and either whips it through mid wicket or drives down the ground of course not from ball one but if there is no movement around and your set.

True anything straight I tend to deal with just learning to keep it on ground as major flaw was head coming up when playing ball so body followed causing aerial shots but sorted now I think but coach in side keeps saying to me don't walk across your covering your stumps but I always tell him I've been out 3 times lbw out of last 60 and one of those was dodgy left arm over swinging ball away from me a right hander hit me in front of middle with a stride and umpire gave it was on 76 at time so was not a happy bunny

as a keeper as well if i see not much movement in the first innings i tend to try to flick through mid wicket early in the air off a good length even if it outside off league stuff anyway to try and play a few mind tricks.

in some of the other games i play if i tried this i would be nailed

took this last night for a bit of fun not the best quality as on i phone(needs to be enlarged to full screen) and my mate sam does not have a career as a camera man but bowling machine at 75mph so not too quick but good enough for a first bowling machine session

I'd love to see what standards lads play at that are posting videos, interesting to see the standard.....
Also, some of the nets people are playing in look terrible and small!! lol

And anyone ever face swing on the bowling machine? It's pretty good, was facing ball just slightly fuller then a good length and swing away one day at like 71, tough stuff!
