I personally like batting more then bowling,I am a good bowler but batting is what I want to do,These days it is batsmans game and bowlers have no help from the pitch,what do you want to perfer bowling or batting?

seconded, think most bowlers/allrounder will agree with you.
scoring a 50 is waay more cooler then take a 5r.

When I was young I prefered bowling but now I much prefer batting.

Bowling is so much better. I could bowl all the time, if school, food, sleep and calls of nature didn't get in the way

Bowling-I like to hurt people, can't do that as a batsmen.

I'm a bowling all rounder, but I prefer batting..

I'd hate to be someone who only does one thing..

Bowling.

I'm not at the crease long enough to enjoy batting.

I like the team to bat first, but I like fielding better....I don't bowl as well as I keep..

Ditto.

Love bowling, I always bowl the first over of the innings, running in for the first ball is a great feeling.

i'm a spin bowler who loves to think they can bat. i prefer making runs, coz it happens so infrequently.
