Describe your style of your game.Whether it's batting or bowling.

My Style:

I mainly play Aggressive shots like the Flick,The Pull and the square cut.I play shots like cover drive and all when I am fully set.I love taking quick singles.I just push the ball in the 30 Yards Cricle and steal a single and when it comes to the slog overs I play all clever shots like the Late cut and Reverse Sweep.
 
My bowling style:

Keep it simple for the first over, Get to the know the pitch and the batsmen. Flight the ball as much as I can in the first over as well I want to see how much turn is out there. For the next few overs I tend to slip in my googlies and arm balls, often trapping the batsmen on the back foot. As a Legspinner I have been called up to bowl at the death frequently. My aim here is full, flat and on the stumps, although I do bowl the odd full toss or long hop seeing as I put so much effort in having a quicker shoulder action here :p

My batting style:

No comment

My fielding style:

Man I am the beast at fielding -- Not. I field at fine leg or third man all the time, and if If I'm lucky I get to field at Mid-On/Off :)
 
LOL Leggie when I was a captain of the Under 16 team I remember I had a few bad fielders and I tried to hide them in the positions like 3rd Man,FIne Leg,Gully etc.

According to my STyle of Fielding
when I am not Keeping.I usually Field at Point,Square Leg,Long Off or Long On

You try hide fielders in gully :eek:

I'm a fairly defensive batsmen just nudge the ball for quick singles and let the big hitters keep the strike. I just hold up one end basically. Medium pace bowler who can swing it and seam it away from the batsmen nicely. I usually try bowl yorkers though just to keep it tight. Last season I got a lot of batsmen bowled and caught keeper/slip.

I field in slip usually but I like to field anywhere that I can get involved.
 
Batting
I'm an opener or a late order batsman.
I can hit the ball quite far but i usually get caught at either long off or deep midwicket.

Bowling
Used to be a quickie with Tait's action but reverted to a leggie when i learned how to bowl the top spinner and the wrong'un can get turn and bounce.

Fielding
In my club we got rubbish fielders and i'm like the best there so i keep when the keeper is injured but usually i field at point and backward point (when the captain is bothered to put one in :rolleyes:)
 
BATTING:
I tend to be a very patient batter. I push the ones and two's around whilst letting the big hitters do their stuff. My best shots are the flick (for some reason I have awesome timing on this shot) and I am strong driving through mid off and mid on. In one dayers, I bat 4-8, whilst in two dayers because I am patient I bat at 4 and others build their innings around me. I would usually only be on 5 or so after the first 20 balls or so, but end up with a fair few 20s, 30s and 40s with a strike-rate of 50-70.

Overall, I would say I am a patient batter.

BOWLING

I am really annoyed at the moment as my bowling is all over the place. I am a bowling all-rounder, and bowling is the strongest part of my game so I am really unhappy.

I get a bit of outswing, but I am much more of a seam bowler and can get them to cut both ways. I have a very good slower ball which I should use more often than I do. I tend to go for about 4.5 - 5 an over but get wickets. Unfortunatley so far this summer I have been all over the place.

Overall, I am a medium pace around 110-120 and I cut the ball both ways

FIELDING
so I am in Gully, point, cover, mid wicket etc the most as I am very quick off the mark and stop alot of fours going through. This doesnt always help with my bowling though as I get tired with all the running in the covers.

Overall, I am 19 and still developing as a cricketer. Id think of myself as a bowling allrounder who bowls medium pace cutting it both ways, while being a patient batter whilst my partners hit the boundaries.
 
Batting

I'm quite tall and play with a small bat, while the bowler runs in I'm quite hunched, and I used to play like that, but recently I've been bending my knees before the bowler bowls so i can get onto either back foot or front foot easily.

Bowling

Being tall I use it to my advantage and takes long strides with a big run-up, I try to hit the deck as hard as possible and try to get inswing, I bowl across the right hander and am left handed, so if I can achieve that swing, coupled with the bounce I can be difficult enough to face

Fielding
I used to play in goal in soccer and play basketball so I'm a handy fielder, better at keeper when I can dive, but i like slpis, wherever the skipper wants me is good with me. I don't have that strong a throw but have good enough accuracy
 
Batting
T20 go for it. proper stuff just try and stay in early on until i feel comfortable and then just try and bat until I have to tee off :D

Bowling
Just bowl as quickly as I can. Really picked up a lot of pace in the last year since I started properly working out, actually had to trim down a bit to get more muscle after I was told too. Get a few catches behind or the occasional catch at slip (most are dropped by this fat bloke). Get a lot of away swing because I don't hold the ball properly so the seams always angled like that if I'm bowling fast. Tend to go fo the short stuff instead of pitching it up anyway.
 
Batting:
Well as far as batting go I am not a guy who goes after the bowling. Solid batsman only put the loose balls to the bounday or if my teams need to me up the run rate a bit but I usally dont hit 6.
 
Batting:
I prefer to just stay in and play my shots only when given a loose ball.
This resulting in one match I played,I stayed in for 11 overs and ended up with 2 no!
Bowling:
A bit of leg spin,off spin and medium pace,plus a bit of left arm orthadox.
Fielding:
I'm a useful slipper
 
Batting

I am usually a low order batsman and I am generally used if the top order collapses, but once in a while i can get a good knock, 84 is my best.

Bowling

I bowl really well, Right arm fast-medium, I can't get the ball to reverse swing unfortunately but I can bowl some other terrific deliveries. I once took 6 wickets in a match.
 
Batting: no runs as of yet for the season...

Bowling: Completely instinctive, I never have a plan I just try to land it full and on the stumps. Because of my height I get sharp bounce, which tends to confuse the batsmen as I bowl so slowly :p

Fielding: Field at Mid on and occasionaly mid off. Rarely let much past, but I need to work on getting down to the ball more. Crap at catching.
