vvvslaxman Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Pooran 2 rank full tosses - 2 sixes Stoinis - 1 rank full toss - 1 six De Kock - 1 rank full toss - 1 six MSD Dhoni - 3 rank full tosses - 2 sixes and 1 four Jadeja - 9 full tosses - 0 fours 0 sixes 1 dot I think high time Indian selectors asking every batsman to hit full tosses and see how long they can hit.

Even if he is capable he won't attempt. Rohit is one guy who handles full tosses okay. Sometimes you need brute power to meet the full tosses. None of our guys have that power. SUrprisingly DK actually hits full tosses for six well because of the position he gets himself into. Worst guy is Jadeja handsdown tweaker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboysfan Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 a left hander having trouble hitting full tosses is really hard to fathom.you can literally pick a spot and atleast get a four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tillu Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Remember how he gave catching practice to Bairstow off a full toss when we were in a very precarious situation in the 4rth test. This guy is very cunning. He always plays for notouts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadeja looses balance which caused him to not hit them. His batting has this weakness from beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea. If you look at Jaiswal against Anderson he expected a yorker and converted it into a full toss and swept his full toss for six. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the easiest balls to maximize run scoring especially in death overs. Even amateur and gully cricketers eyes lit up when they see full tosses. His primary instinct has always been to preserve his wicket at any cost even at the expense of his team. This kind of thinking has served him well in test cricket.

Chaos Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Lot of our batsman suck at full tosses might as well bowl all 20 overs and still keep them under 180.. days when yuvi used to send them to orbit, dhoni sending em to mars and sachin smashing them. Now full tosses for our batsmen are like perfect yorkers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
