    The wicket at 2:38 is bowled by a ‘leg-spinner’ hence the reason why it bounces and spins towards the leg-side. That will be his stock ball. There’s lots of different styles of bowling but you can break it down to spinners and pace bowlers (in its most simple form) Sam Curran, who bowled it out of the back of his hand for the wicket, is a pace bowler and that was a variation. Like a 2-seamer pitcher with a great 12-6. Hope that helps!

    • @Bazzla737
      @Bazzla737 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      He is a leg spinner and that was a leg break delivery, but for opposite reason. Spin is named in the direction it comes from rather than going to when bowled to a right handed batsman, so leg spin turns from leg to off when bowled to a right handed batsman. It's just in this case the batsman is left handed that it turns into him

      You will never get a feel for real cricket by watching the T20 game and it is a big advantage to have played as a youngster and to have been coached correctly. Sixes are to cricket what a HR is to baseball (but more are hit) and in the non wham-bam variant there are real strategies and as many skills that are simply not a part of T20.

It took me a long time to learn the rules of the game but I learned to love it after a time, although it's as slow as baseball, maybe even slower but some of the athleticism is astounding and if the match is close it can be very exciting.

    Another must go-to for world cricket breakdown Jimmy! These are so good! Those two cutest shots (aside from the improvised ramp shot) are classic late cuts, perfectly executed. It's a difficult shot that almost disappeared from the game for a while but it's back again and I'm loving it.
    Oh and the catch that wasn't I'd have given out. As long as fingers are underneath the ball, which they were, then it's definitely out. Seems like third umps fail to remember the grass isn't infinitely short - it grows up above the ground so it's very possible in fact to have fingers under the ball while it's below the tips of the blades of grass.

      It's called leg spin. Ball turns from right to left. So the batter here is trying to hit against the direction of turn, which helps create the gap for the ball to sneak through.

  • @YoullNeverguess43
    @YoullNeverguess43 ปีที่แล้ว

    For a spinner we call the movement drift (sideways) and dip (when it drops from topspin like a 12-6) and we have flight (when they bowl it a bit more loopy to allow for more drift, used a lot to get the batsman to try and smash it for 6 and beat them with the movement in the air). Then once it bounces its spin. For a fast bowler it's just swing then either seam or cut after its bounced (typically cut is when it's intentionally bowled or for a large movement where as seam is a little deviation). The "12-6" the fast bowler bowled is a slower ball. The exact same as a breaking ball in baseball. Gets them swinging out in front and can have some variation on the bounce

    Not sure if anyone else has already explained this but, the championship game spin bowler is bowling LEG spin. The ball comes out of the pinky side of your hand and spins towards your less dominant hand. A bowler spinning it the other way bowls OFF spin. The ball comes out index finger side and spins back towards your dominant hand. Hope that helps. Really enjoy your cricket breakdowns!

    Just to be precise Jimmy, Sam Curran's ball is called a slower ball and its done by a fast baller, its disguised as a fast and straight one, often a yorker, but because its slower and comes out of the back of the hand its stays lower. On the other hand, Ish Sodi is a leg spinner(ball spin from right to left if thrown by a right hander) so the back wrist movement you see is his usual routine, while for Curran its just a disguise. As you can see Sodhi's skids quickly straight while coming drifting from the left.

      @lawrenceeverglade7493 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Most players have scoring patterns to balls of a particular height/speed/line. There are two lines of thinking - trying to get outs and trying to stop the rate of scoring. Placing guys close in will get you more catches but is risky because if it goes past them you concede more runs.
      And yeah generally the batsmen try to hit gaps but to certain bowlers that can be difficult.

    • @Nizzleson
      @Nizzleson ปีที่แล้ว +6

      ​@lawrenceeverglade7493 Nice. Fielder placement is all part of the bowling team setting and springing traps on the batter. Like 2 balls in a row tight into their ribs, cramping up their swing. Then a lovely juicy hittable one right in the batters favorite spot, but bowled a fraction slower so they're too far through the shot when the ball gets to them. Skied up for a catch. Maybe. Runs are cheap and outs are rare, so bowlers are usually happy to leak a few runs before getting the batter out.

      3 Formats of Cricket:
      1) Test Cricket - lasts 5 days, played with RED ball (90 overs a day; both teams bat 2 times alternating) [Domestic red ball matches called First Class cricket]
      2) One Day Int'l (ODI) Cricket - lasts 8-9 hours; played with WHITE ball, 50 overs a side [Domestic 50 over matches called List A cricket]
      3) T20I Cricket - lasts ~3-4hours; WHITE ball, 20 overs a side [Domestic/Franchise 20 over matches called T20 cricket]
      An over consists of 6 balls (Pitches?). So, 20 overs means 120 legal deliveries. There's concept of extras - No Balls, Wides, etc. (leaving those out here)
      A decent score in T20 would be something like 150 - IFF conditions of the pitch and the outfield aren't too favorable to either side.
      There are total 10 wickets, and if your team is out before they are able to bat for the full quota of overs - consider those remaining overs wasted.
      These were some basic info off the top of my head.

      @@Nizzleson "Runs are cheap and outs are rare, so bowlers are usually happy to leak a few runs before getting the batter out." -- well said. This is cricket and strategically this is the first way to think differently compared to baseball. Especially in the longer formats of the game.

      Fielding positions are decided by the captain in conjunction with the bowler, the type of bowling, the condition of the ball (the leather and seam progressively wear out and in tests the same ball must be used for 80 six ball overs until you are eligible to take a new one) the weather and state of the pitch AND how the game is progressing. To make it even more complex in limited overs cricket there are rules depending on the number of overs bowled which require fielders to be inside the circle which denotes catching and run saving positions.
      Generally speaking, if the pitch is bouncy and fast, and maybe the weather is overcast and there's high humidity, the bowling will be fast, the ball will move around more in the air and off the pitch and that will entice the batter to play at a good delivery which gets an edge through to the keeper(catcher) or one of the players next to the keeper in the slips cordon and "gully". That would be a very attacking field.
      If the pitch is very flat, the bowlers are often slower and then the fielding positions will attempt to slow down the flow of runs to maybe frustrate the batter into making a rash shot .... perhaps to hit over the field, mis-hit it and get caught near the boundary rope.
      The fielding positions can be anything from within a few feet of the batters to right on the boundary rope; usually there's a combination of catching in close, single run saving in the 25-35 yard circle around the pitch and 4 saving positions right on the boundary fence/rope... cutting a good shot down to a 1 or 2 rather than a 4 or 6.
      Here are some positions to look up apart from bowler and keeper .. in an anti-clockwise direction from the keeper on the "off-side" .. slips, gully, backward point, point, cover-point, cover, extra cover, mid off then the bowler. Continuing round that inner circle on the "on-side" AKA "leg-side" you have mid on, mid wicket, square leg, backward square leg, leg gully and back to the keeper again.
      There is no hard or fast rule as to where these positions are .. they can be "deep" mid-on for example closer to the boundary or "silly" mid-on which is as you'd expect right in front of the batsman and likely to be in danger if a big shot is hit.
      Then around the boundary again anti-clockwise ... "3rd man", Deep Backward Point, Deep point.. a Sweeper, deep cover, deep extra cover, long off, long on, deep mid-wicket, deep square leg and deep fine leg/long leg.
      There are even more rarer positions than those, but only 9 players apart from the bowler are allowed to occupy any of those positions ... it's like a game of chess - you have a strategy and use combinations of those positions to attack/defend depending on the state of the game (PHEW!). That's what makes cricket so interesting... there's LOADS happening but the T20 and One Day formats are less complex and easier to watch and appreciate for new fans of the sport. Cheers and enjoy our game - the more you watch and understand, the more you'll love it - that's a promise.

      They have lights in them. They're designed to light up when the bails (the things sitting on top) are removed. As the other reply said, there is a circuit broken when they are removed which causes them to light up

    pretty sure its a catch, so long as your fingers are underneath the ball. So, if such is the case, and then the ball continues to touch the ground somewhat afterwards, its still a catch. The ashes one was weird and stupid -as he caught it, he then used it to stable himself as he was falling to the ground. Thus, supposedly, there was an insufficient distinction between the two motions of catching and grounding the ball.
