Daemon learns to cricket

[OverratedSanity]

It's difficult to pick up honestly. Reverse generally swings more than conventional.
Also, with guys like Shami who actually swing it both ways both conventionally and with reverse, it gets extremely difficult to say what's happening. With guys like Steyn who only go one way, it's easy

I think he knows what it is, he's just asking how do you tell by watching a delivery one on TV with no close ups or replays.

You couldn't know for sure without the close-up could you? You'd just have to assume like what wellAlbidarned was saying

 

[Hurricane]

I think the commentators factor into account the number of overs when they call it.

Yes, this.

You can't. It's all from deductions based on knowledge of the bowler and ball state.

the price is right

Reverse tends to go a bit later.

Hi, could you tell me how popular tape-ball Cricket internationally?

 

[Daemon]

What have I done

 

[G.I.Joe]

Hi, could you tell me how popular tape-ball Cricket internationally?

Pretty popular in Pakistan. I've never seen it played in India.

 

[Daemon]

Pretty popular in Pakistan. I've never seen it played in India.

It's quite common in India too.

 

[Lokomotiv]

It's quite common in India too.

I do not understand why Tennis-ball or Tape-ball Cricket has not become the most popular type of Cricket. By using Tennis-balls or Tape-balls, there will be no need for sin guards and helmets. And the number of injury would have been drastically reduced.

Reckon this might be the first time I've seen an OP sabotage their own thread!!

I agree. Why don't they play baseball with balloons?
