Serani Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Pietersen isnt even close to being the best batsman in england... Link to comment
daryl1985 Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Now I know what Pakistanis mean when they rate Umar Akmal as the next great. :hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: Link to comment
f.b.m Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 A tactic that would be legit is to bowl the ball even before Trott has marked his guard (if he takes too long which he will). A batsman should be ready when the bowler is on his mark according to the rules. Consistently doing this would mess him up big time. But we have dartbhajan who takes even longer than fast bowlers to get his overs through. Having said that I'm a big fan of Trotts mindset and ruthlessness. 'N Tipiese boer en boete speler.

tatters Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 I am a White 50 year old English man with five kids. For their sake, I hope they don't have your intellect. Though I don't suppose much mixing of the gene pool occurred. Link to comment

Bowl it from behind the umpire. I'm planning on doing that one of these games. Link to comment
f.b.m Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Bowl it from behind the umpire. I'm planning on doing that one of these games. I've always wondered: what if it hits the umpire? Link to comment
Sachinism Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 I've always wondered: what if it hits the umpire? Well not from directly behind the umpire, but behind the line where he is standing. Don't go to the crease. I'm bowling offies these days, I'm thinking it would allow me to give more air and hopefully some drop Link to comment
say2chander Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Trott, cook.. excellent technique and temperament but so ugly to watch Link to comment
mishra Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Trott' date=' cook.. excellent technique and temperament but so ugly to watch[/quote'] Trott to me looks more like putting the bat in front of ball. What technique? Its him getting on bowlers nerves Link to comment
say2chander Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Well for first, Trott is excellent judge which ball to leave. But his style doesn't entertain me to say the least Link to comment
mishra Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Well for first' date=' Trott is excellent judge which ball to leave. But his style doesn't entertain me to say the least[/quote'] To me he plays even his strokes with soft hand..... Link to comment

I'm bowling offies these days, I'm thinking it would allow me to give more air and hopefully some drop Yeh I bowl a '23 yarder' when I'm bowling too full usually. Link to comment
Serani Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Putting the bat in front of ball, revolutionary new batting tactics. Link to comment
mishra Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Erm... thats like ... batting isnt it? Thats part of batting. Link to comment
f.b.m Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Thats part of batting.Trott also happens to leave the ball quite well. So he's got both parts covered. Link to comment
