Cricketics Posted June 13, 2007 Author Posted June 13, 2007 bump anyone who tries to bowl like any bowler..
King Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 Hadlee, McGrath, Waqar, Kumble and now I emulate Murali without the hyper extension. I grip the ball like a seamer and spin the ball by giving a flick using index, middle finger and the thumb. I get plenty of off spin, drift and flight but cannot bowl the doosra. I will tape it the next time and post it here.
gator Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 now tht u mentioned it RAvi.... as a side note.... in my opinion, the best ever action for fast bowling was of Richard Hadlee.... pure delight to watch and one of the simplest.....
Cricketics Posted June 13, 2007 Author Posted June 13, 2007 i never copied but original action was similar to that of lance klucener.. ppl in India started calling me klucener in 96 when klucener came to in'tl cricket..

Not many know he was a tear away fast bowler that dropped pace after an injury. In fact he only got better after that.
Ram Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 cant bliv that there so many donalds... coz -- I tried his' too.. :giggle: and yea - shaun pollock...
Cricketics Posted June 13, 2007 Author Posted June 13, 2007 Here is me bowling in 02 photographer had just 3-5 pixel camera, hence coudn't really get good view
Ram Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 nice... Where do you guys get the cricket gear from ? The bats are so bloddy damn expensive...
Cricketics Posted June 13, 2007 Author Posted June 13, 2007 lot of stores in usa... some times shipped from India.. our team manager also sometimes get stuff from India when he goes.. he also knows few ppl so gets for little less price then original there are stores like desi sports in houston too.. i think they have a website.. i am not sure..
CC1981 Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 I used to copy Hadlee....best action that worked for a shortie like me ( i tried the malcolm marshall-esque open-chested action, generated more pace but couldnt control the ball).
Donny Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 Richie Benaud. Complete with turned up shirt collar and top 4 buttons undone. :wink_smile:
