Bat like Ian Bell in 10 steps

Furball

Evil Scotsman
1. Watch the bowling like a hawk for the first over.
2. Play a cover drive that will have Nick Knight ejaculating in the commentary box.
3. Fiddle with your shirt sleeve.
4. Treat the opposition’s spinner (using the term loosely here) with an undue amount of respect.
5. Give the opposition ring fielders plenty of practice by middling the ball straight to them.
6. Fiddle with your shirt sleeve and twirl your bat.
7. Crawl to 35 off 55 balls.
8. Elegantly late cut to the boundary, getting the commentators jizzing in their pants again.
9. Check out the field. Fiddle with your shirt sleeve. Spot that there’s only one fielder in close on the off side with no-one within a 50 metre radius.
10. Chip the ball straight to that fielder next ball.
