    Brilliant, elegant & excellent batsmen

    Personally I think Afridi wipes the floor with both of them in terms of natural hitting ability... In terms of the most brilliant, elegant & excellent batsmen ive seen... hmm... Lara, Tendulkar, Dravid, Langer, Vaughan, Richie Richardson all come to mind....

    "The Lara Ball" - 99 world cup, WI and Aus both have to win to get through, McGrath produces a beauty, pitches just on or outside leg and hit the top of off with Lara playing the perfect defensive shot and looking completely shocked.. Another gun ball was Greg Blewett (yes Greg Blewett) to...

    batting drills to do alone

    Also remember it isnt entirely about power... Make sure you dont swing too hard, if you do your front shoulder will open up and you will drag the ball to around mid-wicket.. Just make sure you have a relatively short bat lift, decent stride and the main thing is timing...

    batting drills to do alone

    Yes, by practising with just your top hand it will strengthen that hand/arm and it *should* become more dominant.. It should also help you get more control over your shots.

    batting drills to do alone

    With that, theres no need to stand outside your crease.. i stand 1 foot in 1 out and still score at most time a run a ball or faster without taking huge risks.. If you arent scoring runs quickly just try picking out a weak fielder or working the ball around when you defend... With frustration...

    Bad Points about Cricket games out there

    The batting stances are all crap, they need to look better.. If you keep the AI scoreless for a few overs they take a suicidal single and get run out, thats just totally stupid.. Make the fielders throw with their actual throwing hand, not like in cricket 2004 where they can throw perfectly with...

    Cricket Rules

    In 1 of my games, my captain smacked 1 and got caught at a deepish cover point off a no-ball, he didnt know it was a no-ball and was walking off when he got run-out.... that was the wierdest ive seen... Interestingly, you can be caught out when the ball rebounds off any part of a player except a...
