Quote:“It has not been going well for me in England. The conditions and pitches here were totally not what I expected. The pitches were not prepared well and it was tough for both teams to bat on. I didn’t bowl much because my finger got injured and I am giving it a bit more time to heal,†said Kallicharan.
he needs to talk to his "fadda'....a chap named Alvin!! ::LOL:: ::LOL:: ::LOL::

A couple more videos on how not to play fast bolwing. First up, New Zealand number 11 Ewen Chatfield, who is probably best remembered for getting hit in the temple by a Peter Lever bouncer in 1975, rendering him unconscious and swallowing his tongue.

If you skip to 1:37 in that same video you can also see another kiwi, Lance Cairns, take a sickening blow to the back of the head after turning into a short ball from Wasim Arkam. Listen to that blow. :
:Finally, I am sure everyone remembers Andy Lloyd on Test debut facing Malcolm Marshall. Much like Cairns, Lloyd misjudged the bounce, took his eyes of the ball and turned into it, getting struck on the right temple that left him with blurred vision and unable to play cricket for the rest of the year.
