Just wanted to know what kinds of deliveries troubled you most.
For me, it was the ones that swung away. Every time I tried to hit it, I’d play across the line, and get caught LBW. As soon as I saw a bowler swing it away. I’d just try to get to the other end.
Also, Donkey Droppers We play Village cricket, and there was always some old guy in the team, bowls a lollipop, doesn’t turn much, it’s just there to be hit....and also caught on the boundary.
Favourite delivery – full, outside off.
Love to play a cover drive (albeit, mine was a baseball’esq swing). Used to feel great, coming off the middle, and you didn’t even bother leaving your crease...just watch it sail across the boundary, and walk to the middle and have a chat with your partner.
Anyway, what kinds of deliveries did you love\hate when at the crease.
I thought I’d write this, as its Sunny today...and looking forward to the season starting.
Deliveries.........

You cant support both ManU and Liverpool at the same time. We hate each other here.

i dont have quite the same passion for EPL, am quite a minority in that regard here, but i used to be around 6 or 7 yrs ago, and I did love both the reds..MUFC more so than the liverpool.. But hated arsenal with all my heart.
The same with France in football, india in cricket.

strange thing is at first Australia used to be my 2nd hatest team after india,, ofcourse for different reason.. The Aussie always seem to win. All other team seemed like underdogs and naturally supported underdogs ie every other team playing against Australia...

I do like the Aussies..maybe becuase, during my time playing cricket, they probably produced the best team I have seen play live.
Pakistan..well....without this rivalry, cricket just wouldent be the same.
England...love the team..just not on here.

i hated Australia In Cricket and Federer in Tennis for precisely same reason,, their dominance. They made other look like underdogs, there seemed to be absolutely no equals to them, no competition,,,their loss were so preciously rare , they seemed like an empire in itself.. And a desire to see underdog win and another to see the fall of empire made them my hatest... Ofcourse time changes.. Now both of them are mortals..and one will soon be history, the greatest sportsperson in the world of his generation.

i play better when i dont have to chase bad deliveries to score runs, so to get me out, bowl it short and wide.
Prefer to play against good bowlers

Deliveries that get me out are typically the ones that leave the hand correctly and aren't no balls or wides
