rkt.india Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 There is no such training. Only thing they can do is to find better water absorbers. Link to comment
vvvslaxman Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 If the surface doesn't grip he will be a cannon fodder like all leggies. Leggies depend more on the dry surface than finger spinners. If the ball doesn't grip enough they will just have the turn there won't be bounce that will make the batsman mistime. Link to comment
cowboysfan Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 its the reason leggies almost went extinct in LOI cricket,they cant handle adverse conditions. Link to comment

This is why i was not critical of Ashwin learning leg spin. If you can bowl both you can adapt easily. That is how cricket will be 10 or 20 years from now. May be even wicket keeper will be a specialst bowler and a batsman specialist keeper. Prateek3801 1 Link to comment

chewy Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 World Cup in england should have been in july-aug we saw what happened in recent CT, several rain affected games Link to comment
YCCC Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Wow thanks for the very early forecast. I won't bother buying any tickets. Truth is we don't have a time of year that is always wet and one that is always dry. Anything can happen at any time of year. It all depends where the jet stream is placed, and that can change every week. Turning_track 1 Link to comment

You don't know how easy or difficult it is for the batsman to play such balls. Batsman at nets always tend to hit the ball in the air coz there are no fielders. Link to comment

Why aren't the Met Office recruiting their staff from this forum.? Very glad I bought a lot of tickets for the series now and look forward to a lot of dry days at the cricket. By the way the county season starts in 7 weeks but we're still stuck in sub zero temperatures and spring is nowhere in sight. Can anyone tell me if spring will arrive by April 13th?. Link to comment
