What is ure style of bat/bowling

 

[acmilan]

When i play i dont tend to bowl that much, if i do i probably go offspin or medium pace. Whilst batting, I tend to change depending on situation. Most times i play aggressively but when i feel confident i play through gaps mainly with offside drives

 

[budj]

When I bowl its normally med pace. Batting usually i come around 7th position and I adopt an agressive standpoint.

used to bowl leg spin, but gave up to concentrate on my batting...

bat #4/5.. pick up singles until round 20 (with boundaries) pick the gaps util about 50-75.. past 75 aggressive

12th man...

opening bat usually, also managed to take the new ball this season (against a really crap team that is).

i used to open the batting, bowled leg spin for several years forgot how to then began off spin.

The last couple of seasons i have been introduced with the new ball. i usually change my style depending on the batter. If the batter doesn't have a helmet on, i come around the wicket and fire some short balls in or around the chest/head region to shake them up a little, then bowl the just short of a good length deliveries then fire in the occasional yorker. i always keep them thinking of what the next ball could be.

I also have the opening batting position as well. i sorta play the night-watchmen until i reach the 25s, then i play my shots with more force. this year my lowest score is 24 and that is through a lofted sweep that was caught on the boundary, apart from that i'm averaging 30s

o btw opening a pos 1 or 2?

lol i love batting w/ RH batsman
wastes their time hafta change field
more time they waste less overs they get unless they speed up the pace of the game

 

[televators]

[furryfish]

leg spin is fun to bowl... pitch it correctly and get enoguh spin, theyre gone!! but a bit off and youre over teh fence for six

 

[MuffinMan]

I would love to learn how to do L/H orthodox like Michael Clarke

opening batting and bowling at number one

 

[MuffinMan]

opening is quite good...at least u don't have to walk out when a teammate got out i like 2 better but

 

[redruM]

in my last season with the school 2nd XI i opened bat and bowl most of the time.

loved playing against shitty teams. got my century last yr too! hit 7/8 sixes and bought up century with one aswell. lol it was a small ground though. hit a six with a leg glance behind square!

that game was awesome. btw, it was only a 30 over game and i batted for about 20.

i've had bad experiences as well though....in my 2nd yr of cricket in U14's i was on 63 and got smacked in the head. top edged a pull shot. no helmet + glasses = risky. had to retire hurt
another time when i opened against this really fast bowler who i knew from primary school and i was very much out of form. he kept bowling short stuff and i was hit about 5-10 times around the hip area. when i bowled i bowled to that same guy. firstball...bouncer in his ribs. he got knocked out a bit. second ball....smacked him in the hamstring area below the ass. went off the field crying.

cricket was fun. no time now.
