I know we had a thread once asking who are the tallest and shortest players, but I was wondering if anyone knows how I could find out how tall some of the current players are?
damn I cant work with heights in cm's..needs to be in feet and inchesage_master said:a few of the NSW boys are pretty tall - Mail, Thornley, Bracken are all 195cm or more
he didnt look that tall to mevic_orthdox said:couldn't believe how tall chris harris was when i saw him play recently. he's almost as tall as the nz fast bowlers (mills, cairns, etc.)
being tall or being short does it matter or it does? i know for sure being tall and being a ball is alot of help like mcgrath kasporwiz are really tall and they are the best bowler's so how does it help you being tall and being a fast bowler any suggestion because i am tall and i want to be a batsman rather being a bowler.Tim said:From NZ, Brendon McCullum is very short...Hamish Marshall too.

Being tall and a pace bowler gives u that extra bounce and nipcricket player said:being tall or being short does it matter or it does? i know for sure being tall and being a ball is alot of help like mcgrath kasporwiz are really tall and they are the best bowler's so how does it help you being tall and being a fast bowler any suggestion because i am tall and i want to be a batsman rather being a bowler.
Yet, by the same token, one of the best bowlers of all time (certainly better than ANY current bowler) was one Malcolm Denzil Marshall...cricket player said:being tall or being short does it matter or it does? i know for sure being tall and being a ball is alot of help like mcgrath kasporwiz are really tall and they are the best bowler's so how does it help you being tall and being a fast bowler any suggestion because i am tall and i want to be a batsman rather being a bowler.

what about batting does it really matter if you are tall are short.most of the player's example sehwag tendulkar etc are short and they are the best batsman alive.GoT_SpIn said:and ur from usa? Being tall and a pace bowler gives u that extra bounce and nip
Being short helps because you can get underneath the short ball, some of the best hookers and pullers are short.. It also means you can move around the crease slightly more quickly..cricket player said:what about batting does it really matter if you are tall are short.most of the player's example sehwag tendulkar etc are short and they are the best batsman alive.
