PAK vs Aus and Umar Akmal
« on: July 05, 2010, 05:11:17 PM »
Just watching some t20 madness - Watching Akmal is great fun, but the really noticable thing is how closely he watches the ball. He is a really talented young player.

Actually also it is noticable how he knows where the fielders are an places the ball well, so if the ball isn't there for the big smash, can lay bat on ball to rotate the strike

pretty depressing that a tait (much) slower ball is the same speed as my normal ball!!

No he didn't.

He was wearing Nike bowling shoes in the same colour as his Bangalore kit.
