Indoor Cricket - Bowl strait or outside off? normally

well generally, i play with and against some guys that play for Australia and it doesnt take much to become a bad ball against them...
Exactly, so it's relative...I don't think many of us will have to worry about where we're going to bowl to guys that have played for Australia though. Plus, as far as I'm concerned, it's the same as outdoor in the respect that not every batsman is going to come in and have weaknesses in the same areas so saying you bowl in one spot not to get hit doesn't make sense.

It is a batsman's game though (as the person above me said), and you can bowl to some guys who are pretty ordinary and still not get them out as they nudge away. That's why I find it quite annoying to play. That and the fact that a good shot in outdoor can regularly get you out in indoor.

a simon was saying short in the ribs you cramp him up, if you have a great fielder in close he can slap to the keeper or turn and throw at the bowlers end then when your back nets boys is a gun he just catches and takes the bail off 99% of the time. i played reps for sutho and we won state tittles and that was some of our tactics.
