well I am all rounder, bowl pace.

My average speed of bowling is 129 ks per hour. I can bowl inswing, outswing, off cutter, leg cutter, bouncer and yorker. strong skills are out swinger, off cutter, leg cutter and yorkers. I almost have everything in my diary :cool:

:cheers

No idea what speed I bowl, never measured it. Im med-fast out swinger, I generally focus on line and length rather than express pace. Have a deadly off cutter and can vary my pace pretty well. Also can bowl a decent in swinger. Need to work on a bouncer though =/

I don't really have the stamina to keep it up throughout a match, which is what matters really, but I reckon as a one off, with all my effort, I could touch 115ish.

I have really bad stamina, so I just bowl sort of military medium on a line with the odd cutter, a bit like Chris Harris or Kapu. Or just bowl actual slow bowling, either leg breaks (when I am landing them properly :p) or offies.

I am a pace bowler and my speciality is the yorker, although I do a fair load of off cutters. My top 2 tips are to vary your pace, do not let the batsmen settle and alter your action so that your back is as striaght as possible and your are standing as tall as you possibly can, this gives you some very good added bounce on a flat pitch, and I have dismissed many a batsman with a relatively full ball in which the batsman nhas gone for a cut and he has top edged it and a lot of the time it hits the seam and can bounce in to the right hander and take out his off peg!

to bowl a legcutter u have to impart some spin to the ball when ur bowling fast and bowl it towards the legstump .yorker is a full length delivery which darts into the stumps depending upon the wrist and seam position.And abt inswinger no idea.
