Slower than more flighted? Very flighted, you mean?
No, I said, one more flighted delivery, same trajectory but slower, that's the plan 😀

Same trajectory but slower? Wouldn't that be defying the *coughs* laws of physics?

Try just getting one type of sweep right - that alone can help. After hours of being humiliated in the nets, I am now decent at the paddle sweep - play it every time there’s no fine leg. Regular sweep is still an issue and I don’t bother with it. Getting decent with reverse paddle sweep too.

I Know nothing about physics!
Would like try these flights on you
What about next delivery, slightly bit quicker but on the stumps?

Ever listened to a post-match tale of bowler's plan coming to fruition and thought: "But you barely know which half of the pitch you're landing it in, mate"?

I'm quite often the one telling those tales 😂 "oh yeah, just rolled the fingers over that slow full toss that the batsman somehow chipped to a fielder"

We'd disagree over its dimensions.
