The test between Australia and India at Melbourne, which just ended, was one of the most exciting Boxing Day 5-day matches I have seen in my 75 yrs. It also set a record 375,000 attendance record for Melbourne.
Remarkable player Jimmy, he made his test match debut in 2003. This performance was in 2008, and he finally stopped in 2024, aged 41. The fact is that he did not want to stop, but the England Selectors wanted him to stop because they wanted to build a new bowling attack, but did not dare to get labelled as the 'selectors who dropped Jimmy Anderson'. I have been following English test cricket since 1964 and he is the only player to have one end of a test match ground (Old Trafford, Manchester) named after him 'whilst he was still playing!'
Now you should check out Stuart Broad and his incredible 8-15 at my home ground Trent Bridge in 2015. One of the best mornings of Cricket I've ever witnessed. Also Anderson is 42 now, this was 2008 at the peak of his career
@amireallythatgrumpy6508 well McGrath took over 500 at a significantly lesser average and strike rate and was probably the most important player in the greatest team of all time
@@amireallythatgrumpy6508 glenn McGrath was more important than shane warne. Let's be honest they were kind of a duo so it's difficult to say who was more important. What I can say is if McGrath didn't get injured during the 05 ashes Australia would've won
Swing is used to describe "sideways movement through the air". Cut is used to describe the"movement off the pitch". Swing is achieved by bowling the ball with seam staying vertical from delivery and the motion of the air passing on two sides of the ball. One side will be kept shiny and smooth by the bowlers, allowing the other side to "scuff up" and get rough. When that "vertical seam" hits the pitch then secondary movement can occur in either direction, towards or away from the batsman. The seam is quite prominent on a cricket ball and generates movement, depending on how the bowler applies angle to the vertical seam as he bowls the ball.
This was Jimmy in his pomp. The reason the batsmen kept missing those balls is because they swung (curved in the air) very late. If the ball had gone straight, they would have hit the middle of the bat. The second batsman he dismissed, Brendan McMullan, is the man who ultimately brought Jimmy's (everyone called him Jimmy) career to a close. Despite being 42, he was still bowling as well as ever, though he'd had a lean time. This is unheard of for a seam or fast bowler. Most retire in mid or late 30s, if injury doesn't do it for them earlier. He had been playing Test cricket longer than some of his teammates had been alive, which is freakish for a job that is so physically demanding. Brendan, now the England coach, gave Jimmy one final test at Lord's. He bowled well, got wickets, but was eclipsed by a debutante, Gus Atkinson. A true handing over of the baton. If Jimmy had played one or two more matches, he would have surpassed Shane Warne in Test wickets, and stood second only to Muralideran. Both were spin bowlers, who tend to bowl more and have longer careers. No fast bowler will get close to Anderson's record for the foreseeable future.
In this particular match, the Kiwis were falling like skittles! "James Anderson retired from Test matches (international) cricket with 704 wickets" included in his final 1000 wickets (incl. his UK club matches), Ryan! He is the greatest English/British baller and is now involved in commentating on Cricket and training English ballers! He is a great player, humble and highly talented gentleman! Thank you and well done Jimmy👍🎉✌️🌟👏
Wikipedia: Anderson plays as a right-arm fast-medium bowler. Among fast bowlers, he is the leading Test wicket-taker of all-time, being the first fast bowler to take 600 or more Test wickets, and in March 2024 he became the first fast bowler to take 700 wickets, and is England's record Test wicket-taker. He has played the most Test matches for England, and the second most of any cricketer, behind Sachin Tendulkar of India. This match was in 2008. As a batter, he shares with Joe Root the world record for highest tenth-wicket partnership in Tests (198). He retired from international cricket on 12 July 2024. Root replaced Alastair Cook as the full-time Test captain on 13 February 2017 following the latter's resignation, making him England's 80th captain.
The video may be six years old but the match was from the 2007/2008 tour, Jimmy was pretty young there, only 4 or 5 years into his career, but yes he did retire in 2024. Fast bowlers tend to have the shortest careers of all types of cricketers, but Anderson made his Test Debut aged 20 and retired a few days before his 42nd birthday. He played 188 Tests, the most for any England player and took 704 wickets, the most for any fast bowler from any nation, and the the third most for any bowler.
Part of the joy of cricket is how the Bowler manages to manipulate the ball, whether a fast, swing, seam spinner, medium pace or slow specialist bowler. The ball itself has a pronounced raised seam where it's sewn, and one style of bowling is called 'seam bowling' where an expert can make the ball deviate unexpectedly using the seam on the bounce, but a good batsman can often cope with it, that is part of the battle and guessing game between bowler and batter which makes cricket absorbing and often exciting when you understand the vast number of nuances in the game. Jimmy was one of the best ever bowlers.
Indeed. Just for the Americans, maybe change "guessing" for "predicting". The batter is scrutinising the bowler's action, especially hand and fingers, to attempt to predict what allowance needs to be made for swing, spin, seam etc.
@@nickwillder You may be right about that. I find test cricket the ultimate form of the game. Once you understand the nuances of the battle between bowler and batter you realise that there is a ball bowled less than every minute - 1f the 15 overs per hour is kept to, there are 90 bowls every hour and each ball bowled creates apprehension, it is absorbing and exciting at anyone time. And the ebbs and flows of the game over 5 days also adds to creating tensions. When it was on mainstream terrestrial I used to be glued to the game, but used to listen to the BBC radio commentary for the joy and understanding it created.
Jimmy 'was retired' by management, he didn't retire. He would still get into pretty much any team in the world, even at 41. He's England's bowling coach and is still as fit as ever and is bowling full speed at the batters in practice sessions. A great sportsman like this has surely earned the right to go out on his own terms. Shoddy treatment of a real legend.
Don't forget that the ball has a raised seam on it. This helps with movement off the pitch. I used to be a seam bowler in the West Lancashire League. I could make the ball move left or right off the pitch depending on how i positioned the seam in my hand.
The commentators are mostly former international cricketers, so yes they do know the players (some having played with them only a few years previously)
Fast bowlers tend to be the ones that retire early in cricket terms, their knee starts to go with the pounding it gets from the way they bowl. It's the landing, after that jump you saw Anderson do, the the pivot, they do after the landing, also adds to the problem.
1:37 if you pay attention, you'll notice that a lot of pace bowlers are the tall lanky kind compared to the rest of their teammates; the long legs and arms help with launching the ball further and faster 1:52 coz it's not that often that one of the stumps gets uprooted and flies off cleanly like that 3:25 a swing ball is comparable to a curveball in baseball, it changes direction while in the air due to the way it spins (different from a spin ball, which requires ground contact to change direction) 5:28 no, that was a LBW (leg before wicket); it must've hit the knee/leg pads first
jimmy swings it, so using physics it changes the angle the ball is travelling mid air, this is very hard to do but when done well it can make it very hard for the batters to know where the ball will reach them, making it more likely to get them out. here jimmy got 7 wickets and only conceded 43 runs. so he got 7/10 players out and they did not score many off of him at all. in total jimmy has 704 wickets which is the 3 highest ever and highest for someone bowling pace (the 2 higher than him bowled spin which is much less physically taxing) and he is one of the finest ever bowlers and one of England's modern day greats
2:42 in the 1970's - 1980's west indies bowlers used to measure how much stump gets distance after flying (as an embarrassment for batter/as a celebration)because they were very fast and very best in the world at that time
@@chrisholland7367 Only for the Aussie cricketers to crave for attention so bad that they be ready doing things uncalled-for, to have enough eyeballs on, that someone offers them that IPL contract.
When you watch cricket you will notice that when fielders are returning the ball to the bowler, one or more will be rubbing the ball aggressively on their clothing. They rub one side of the ball which eventually becomes much slicker than the other side. When the ball is bowled seam upright by a swing bowler the difference in friction against the air causes the ball to swing. A heavy atmosphere is often the best conditions for getting the ball to swing. Not all bowlers can make the ball swing and James Anderson was the best of all time. I suspect it is similar to baseball pitchers who throw a curve ball.
James (Jimmy) Anderson debuted for England in late 2002 as a 20 year old, the clip you are reacting to is from 2008, he was forced into retiring from playing for England last year at the age of 42. The second wicket he gets, when the stump flies is of the current England coach, who decided it was time for him to retire. Hopefully this context helps with what you have just watched!
To think that after he started playing for England coaches started messing with his bowling action. It is unusual for any bowler to be looking away before his ball reaches the batsman. They messed him up, and he lost his place. Eventually, he went back to his natural action, added new deliveries to his armoury, and kept adapting to extend his career despite his age.
He is the perfect example of biomechanics in motion, perfectly efficient in sync action, whip like as you said. You wouldn't call his action textbook but you would say it's a very good repeatable technique. A text book bowler would be Chris Woakes, who has kind taken over as Jimmy's role in the test side at home. Check out sky's bowling masterclasses, they are really good for getting some knowledge in ya lad
They needed 42 more runs to prevent the 'follow on'. In other words, now England can ask them to bat again [instead of themselves batting] as they didn't meet the target of being 200 behind, in the hope of bowling them out again before the NZ team can reach England's first innings total [when they add both of NZ's totals]. Then England would 'win by an innings and [whatever runs]'.
But could you please remind me where you live in EU, and for how long The most beautiful things are in the TH-cam, that you know nothing and you say a lot, That’s so amazing Please stay safe wherever you are and enjoy, yes happy new year xx
It's not spin that makes the ball move away - it's the way the ball hits the turf on the seam, which causes the movement. The art of the bowler is to make the ball land ON the seam at the right place and facing the right way. Simples ... 🙂
Swing and spin are very different. In swing the bowler does NOT spin the ball to make it change direction. It happens because of the bowlers wrist position as he releases the ball and, mostly, because of the aerodynamics of the ball, in so far as one side is allowed to go rough(as the game progresses), the orther is shined and polished. therfore the airflow over the ball moves it towards the rough side if the seam is presented straight (or slighly canted to be pedantic). Once done the ball will swing (curve) through the air. To make it swing in and then with another delivery swing out is very hard to do. To do at speed even harder and that's why Jimmy is the greatest ever swing and fast bowler because he took more test wickets than any other fast bowler.
Anderson is considered 'fast-medium' and bowls around 85mph. A 'fast' bowler bowls at 90-95mph. But if any non-cricketers stood with a bat and faced Anderson bowling they wouldn't even see the ball, it would just be a split second blur and then it would be past them. NB I was at this test match in 2008 at Trent Bridge, Nottingham.
England versus Australia is known as the Ashes test series played every 4 years and could not be considered 'gentlemanly ' by any stretch of the imagination lol 😆
They are wearing white so that indicates that it is a test match which lasts 5 days. You can imagine how excited they are when a person gets out. It's exciting anyway no matter which type of game you are playing. But getting one or two wickets by the same bowler is good but increasing that amount excites the players even more. 7!!!!
in the 70's & 80's they barely wore helmets. Most batsmen only started wearing helmets was because the west indies had one of the mosto vicious bowling attacks in the world & Australia had 2 of the best fast bowlers who would all gladly hit you in the head.
You need to watch some swing and spin setups to take wickets. That will make you appreciate the nuances much more. The setup is basically something like you make the ball swing(for a fast bowler)/spin(for a spin bowler) one way(from right to left or vice versa) for a few deliveries,amking the batsman play with a certain mindset and expectation of which way the ball is coming and then strategically making it go the other way on the next ball to make the batsman misjudge the way the ball's gonna go and hence induce a false shot. This setup insures that even a little movement(from left to right or right to left) becomes much more dangerous as perceived by the batsman as he is probably expecting the ball to move exactly the opposite direction. Because of this even if the ball doesnt swing but only goes straight the batsman still experiences a huge deviation compared to where he was expecting the ball to move based on the experience of his last few deliveries trajectory. The setup could also involve other strategies like bouncing the ball by pitching it from a distance from the batsman(short delivery,also called a bouncer if it bounces a lot typically to the height of batsmans shoulders) and then suddenly bowling one really close to the batman(full delivery) that will typically bounce to the height of top of wickets or even lower or maybe little above the wickets upto batsman's waist. There are other kinds of setups that bowlers do. For a spinner for example a leg spinner typically spins the delivery from the right to the left(right side from the viewers perspective or the bowlers perspective). So he could do that a few deliveries and then suddenly ball a trick delivery called the googly(that goes the opposite way from right to left from the pov of a right handed batsman),thus many a times tricking the bastman's expectations of where the balls gonna go and deceiving them. Similarly a off spinner typically spins the ball from left to right(left side from the viewers perspective or the bowlers perspective) but then can ball a trick delivery called a carrom ball or a doosra(less common these days coz a rules being made stricter on bowlers not being allowed to straighten their albow while bowling which would be called throwing which isnt allowed in cricket unlike in baseball where all pitchers basically throw,this is the reason why cricket bowlers run up from a distance and use their bodys momentum to generate pace as they arent allowed to throw making it extremely hard to get any pace) that goes from right to left. They even have a ball called slider or arm ball that basically just goes straight instead of turning any way(while the batsman is expecting it to spin). The batsman also try to judge which way the ball is gonna spin/swing based on the way the ball is released from the hands. It is obviously extremely difficult to be able to read from the bowlers hand as u barely get a fraction of second to see it coming out of hand of the bowler given how fast the bowlers rotatte their arm to bowl inorder to generate pace. That is called reading the ball,in the sense analysing which way its gonna go within a fraction of a second while also judging how far is the ball gonna pitch and on what line(straight in the direction of wicket or far away on its left or right) and deciding what shot to play based on all this and get in position to play the shot.
I was shocked Bumrah had only played 40-odd matches and was 31 years old. Jimmy reached that milestone around 2009, when he was about 27. Bumrah has about 200 wickets. He might get to 300, maybe more, but he might not reach even half of Jimmy's career total.
Hey! I do leg spin, best in the history of cricket (self proclaimed). I practiced leg spinning for 2 years and but couldn't get through any official trials for lack of connections and money. I am writing to you because I need someone with connections, like a manager to do something with my skills. I think it's going to be mutually profitable if we can get something out of our interaction!
Hi Ryan, maybe react to this video of Scott Boland's debut (first test match) performance: th-cam.com/video/Qz6YxAYj15Q/w-d-xo.html He took 6 wickets for 7 runs, which is an awesome performance. At 18.88, he has the 13th best average (runs/wickets) in test match history and the 3rd best over the last 100 years. Bizarrely, he is not a regular test player for Australia. The three regular test fast bowlers for Australia (Cummins, Starc and Hazelwood) are so good, he only comes into the team when one of the three is injured. Another interesting fact is that he is of Aboriginal heritage.

Jimmy Anderson was a decent fast bowler until he learned how to use swing to devastate batsmen. Then he learned how to make the ball swing either way from what looked like the same bowling action. Then he learned to disguise the position of his fingers and the position of the raised seam on the ball. Eventually, even the GOAT batsmen had difficulty with him. He soldiered on, still playing international cricket well past the age that most fast bowlers retired. A fast bowler can normally expect to bowl 30+ overs in a normal innings, but even though he struggled to bowl more than 16 overs in a match he could still turn any game once he got into the right rhythm.
False. He bowled 40037 balls in 188 matches, which averages out at 35.5 overs a match. He swung the ball in his debut, an ODI against Pakistan iirc. He improved his control, rarely going for more than 2 an over, and use of other techniques like wobble seam, in his later career. He was rapid when young, but reduced his pace to extend his career, like Sir Richard Hadlee and Shaun Pollock.
Anderson may be the "king of swing", but there are those who swing it more (physically) with comparable records Wasim Akram is actually a better watch.
I am wondering how much Americans know about their political system and the situation around the world. Many videos on this channel showing that Americans know less when it comes to geography or world outside US but I am wondering do they know inside and outside US policy as from one hand I heard you are taking elections really seriously from other I hear that many people are now moaning that they did mistake voting as they vote because they didn't know that... Yesterday I watched a video by the Vice channel about why young American Jews were changing their views about some stuff ( you may know exactly what it was about but I don't want to go further into it) but what surprised me was the level of the knowledge of some people there ( they didn't knew basics about country they visited and believe in some nonexisting anywhere else version of the story). They weren't some Tom Dick and Harry but students ( educated people)😮.

The wicket is comprised of three stumps. Wicket is archaic English for a gate, which was probably used in informal village cricket a long time ago.

A text book bowler would be Chris Woakes, who has kind taken over as Jimmy's role in the test side at home. Check out sky's bowling masterclasses, they are really good for getting some knowledge in ya lad
They needed 42 more runs to prevent the 'follow on'.
In other words, now England can ask them to bat again [instead of themselves batting] as they didn't meet the target of being 200 behind, in the hope of bowling them out again before the NZ team can reach England's first innings total [when they add both of NZ's totals]. Then England would 'win by an innings and [whatever runs]'.
Would love to see you react to Brett Lee he's a fast bowler from Australia. He's retired now, but he used to bowl consistently above 150 k/h.
Test cricket is an amazing game and is very popular
Yep have to ditto some comments day 5 recent aus v india melb test absolute classic
If you haven’t already seen it I’d recommend the world record 438 South Africa v Australia one day game
I really want you to react to the fastest century by A B DeVillers. It’s epic
But could you please remind me where you live in EU, and for how long
The most beautiful things are in the TH-cam, that you know nothing and you say a lot,
That’s so amazing
Please stay safe wherever you are and enjoy, yes happy new year xx
It's not spin that makes the ball move away - it's the way the ball hits the turf on the seam, which causes the movement. The art of the bowler is to make the ball land ON the seam at the right place and facing the right way. Simples ... 🙂
Swing and spin are very different. In swing the bowler does NOT spin the ball to make it change direction. It happens because of the bowlers wrist position as he releases the ball and, mostly, because of the aerodynamics of the ball, in so far as one side is allowed to go rough(as the game progresses), the orther is shined and polished. therfore the airflow over the ball moves it towards the rough side if the seam is presented straight (or slighly canted to be pedantic). Once done the ball will swing (curve) through the air. To make it swing in and then with another delivery swing out is very hard to do. To do at speed even harder and that's why Jimmy is the greatest ever swing and fast bowler because he took more test wickets than any other fast bowler.
Stumps? 3 stumps, 2 bails. Leg stump is the one next to your legs. The off stump is the one furthest from you. Middle, meh, you know Ryan. 😊
Oh, Jimmy, Jimmy!
Don't worry, he'll work out the difference between swing and spin one day
Then on to seam.🤔🤔
Anderson is considered 'fast-medium' and bowls around 85mph. A 'fast' bowler bowls at 90-95mph. But if any non-cricketers stood with a bat and faced Anderson bowling they wouldn't even see the ball, it would just be a split second blur and then it would be past them. NB I was at this test match in 2008 at Trent Bridge, Nottingham.
I think if Americans discovered Australian BBL and Indian IPL which are 20 overs games and can be played in a few hours, they would love it.
England versus Australia is known as the Ashes test series played every 4 years and could not be considered 'gentlemanly ' by any stretch of the imagination lol 😆
Or as we like to say, "gentlemanly".
Suggest you watch Aussie SHAYNE WARNE.
Sports people don't retire just because of their age !!
CAUGHT not CORKED !!
They are wearing white so that indicates that it is a test match which lasts 5 days. You can imagine how excited they are when a person gets out. It's exciting anyway no matter which type of game you are playing. But getting one or two wickets by the same bowler is good but increasing that amount excites the players even more. 7!!!!
in the 70's & 80's they barely wore helmets. Most batsmen only started wearing helmets was because the west indies had one of the mosto vicious bowling attacks in the world & Australia had 2 of the best fast bowlers who would all gladly hit you in the head.
Ryan, those balls are bowled really fast. That's why they wear face protection.
retired as the greatest ever fast bowler. over 700 wickets.
Not the greatest but definitely a legend of the game
Hello
Leg before wicket, its not allowed to protect the wicket with your pads
"The" actual King of Swing is Wasim Akram. He basically developed (did not invent) a technique called "Reverse Swing". He perfected it.
If Jimmie is king if swing . I'm jesus . He was a great swing bowler worth respect but calling him king of swing then what do you call Wasim Akram?
That match was played in 2008.
check out aus-Ind test in Sydney today.
Just type "yoker king Lasith malinge" you can wonder 😂😂
You have to remember this man is bowling at over a hundred miles an hour. You try playing that ball
You need to watch some swing and spin setups to take wickets. That will make you appreciate the nuances much more. The setup is basically something like you make the ball swing(for a fast bowler)/spin(for a spin bowler) one way(from right to left or vice versa) for a few deliveries,amking the batsman play with a certain mindset and expectation of which way the ball is coming and then strategically making it go the other way on the next ball to make the batsman misjudge the way the ball's gonna go and hence induce a false shot. This setup insures that even a little movement(from left to right or right to left) becomes much more dangerous as perceived by the batsman as he is probably expecting the ball to move exactly the opposite direction. Because of this even if the ball doesnt swing but only goes straight the batsman still experiences a huge deviation compared to where he was expecting the ball to move based on the experience of his last few deliveries trajectory. The setup could also involve other strategies like bouncing the ball by pitching it from a distance from the batsman(short delivery,also called a bouncer if it bounces a lot typically to the height of batsmans shoulders) and then suddenly bowling one really close to the batman(full delivery) that will typically bounce to the height of top of wickets or even lower or maybe little above the wickets upto batsman's waist. There are other kinds of setups that bowlers do. For a spinner for example a leg spinner typically spins the delivery from the right to the left(right side from the viewers perspective or the bowlers perspective). So he could do that a few deliveries and then suddenly ball a trick delivery called the googly(that goes the opposite way from right to left from the pov of a right handed batsman),thus many a times tricking the bastman's expectations of where the balls gonna go and deceiving them. Similarly a off spinner typically spins the ball from left to right(left side from the viewers perspective or the bowlers perspective) but then can ball a trick delivery called a carrom ball or a doosra(less common these days coz a rules being made stricter on bowlers not being allowed to straighten their albow while bowling which would be called throwing which isnt allowed in cricket unlike in baseball where all pitchers basically throw,this is the reason why cricket bowlers run up from a distance and use their bodys momentum to generate pace as they arent allowed to throw making it extremely hard to get any pace) that goes from right to left. They even have a ball called slider or arm ball that basically just goes straight instead of turning any way(while the batsman is expecting it to spin). The batsman also try to judge which way the ball is gonna spin/swing based on the way the ball is released from the hands. It is obviously extremely difficult to be able to read from the bowlers hand as u barely get a fraction of second to see it coming out of hand of the bowler given how fast the bowlers rotatte their arm to bowl inorder to generate pace. That is called reading the ball,in the sense analysing which way its gonna go within a fraction of a second while also judging how far is the ball gonna pitch and on what line(straight in the direction of wicket or far away on its left or right) and deciding what shot to play based on all this and get in position to play the shot.
This match was 2008.
Cool
Did not used to wear head and face guards in the old days Health and Safety nowadays You would not want to be hit by a cricket ball without protection
You are watching top class cricket, every wicket is money money money, some of the richest sportspeople are cricketers
Mints
React to Jasprit bumrah.
Best bowler of this era.
Arguably greatest of all time. Swing and seam, he has got everything.
He has a long way to go to prove himself in the long term though.
Yes , but in terms of impact. No one has been more unplayable than bumrah@@gailstevens6831
I was shocked Bumrah had only played 40-odd matches and was 31 years old.
Jimmy reached that milestone around 2009, when he was about 27.
Bumrah has about 200 wickets. He might get to 300, maybe more, but he might not reach even half of Jimmy's career total.
just watch an IPL match compilation 😂 you would be mind blown😂😂😂
Just look for Bumrah he is Goat bowler
Nah Tait and McGrath are better
And Warnie is way better too
RIP
Hey! I do leg spin, best in the history of cricket (self proclaimed). I practiced leg spinning for 2 years and but couldn't get through any official trials for lack of connections and money. I am writing to you because I need someone with connections, like a manager to do something with my skills. I think it's going to be mutually profitable if we can get something out of our interaction!
A great bowler no doubt, but Wasim Akram may look at the appellation with some interest 😁
Is there a secret society of TH-camrs who ignore comments?
Hey look at Stuart Broad. He and Jimmy both been bowling over the last 20 years. Oh, bad luck again Stuart just retired also
You should watch swing bowling of Bhubaneswar kumar
Hi Ryan, maybe react to this video of Scott Boland's debut (first test match) performance: th-cam.com/video/Qz6YxAYj15Q/w-d-xo.html He took 6 wickets for 7 runs, which is an awesome performance. At 18.88, he has the 13th best average (runs/wickets) in test match history and the 3rd best over the last 100 years. Bizarrely, he is not a regular test player for Australia. The three regular test fast bowlers for Australia (Cummins, Starc and Hazelwood) are so good, he only comes into the team when one of the three is injured. Another interesting fact is that he is of Aboriginal heritage.
Top players u need to react 2000-till now.

Please tell me a bit more about Europe,
Please tell me, because I never ever been in your country and I don’t want to go there
Please tell me more about EU, I would love to learn a bit more about a place which I was born,
But could you please tell me a bit more about your country, how this happened that today is what is in your country,
Please educate me
Jimmy Anderson was a decent fast bowler until he learned how to use swing to devastate batsmen.
Then he learned how to make the ball swing either way from what looked like the same bowling action.
Then he learned to disguise the position of his fingers and the position of the raised seam on the ball.
Eventually, even the GOAT batsmen had difficulty with him.
He soldiered on, still playing international cricket well past the age that most fast bowlers retired.
A fast bowler can normally expect to bowl 30+ overs in a normal innings, but even though he struggled to bowl more than 16 overs in a match he could still turn any game once he got into the right rhythm.
False. He bowled 40037 balls in 188 matches, which averages out at 35.5 overs a match.
He swung the ball in his debut, an ODI against Pakistan iirc. He improved his control, rarely going for more than 2 an over, and use of other techniques like wobble seam, in his later career.
He was rapid when young, but reduced his pace to extend his career, like Sir Richard Hadlee and Shaun Pollock.
Anderson may be the "king of swing", but there are those who swing it more (physically) with comparable records Wasim Akram is actually a better watch.
anyone gonna mention the king of spain? -thats a funny one..
I am wondering how much Americans know about their political system and the situation around the world. Many videos on this channel showing that Americans know less when it comes to geography or world outside US but I am wondering do they know inside and outside US policy as from one hand I heard you are taking elections really seriously from other I hear that many people are now moaning that they did mistake voting as they vote because they didn't know that... Yesterday I watched a video by the Vice channel about why young American Jews were changing their views about some stuff ( you may know exactly what it was about but I don't want to go further into it) but what surprised me was the level of the knowledge of some people there ( they didn't knew basics about country they visited and believe in some nonexisting anywhere else version of the story). They weren't some Tom Dick and Harry but students ( educated people)😮.
Yanks don't know shit
