How can I learn to play cricket alone? Hey all. I'm an American learning to play cricket for a team this summer. My question is: How can I learn the game, or at least practice the fundamentals alone with minimal access to equipment. I can probably find a bat somewhere, but what drills can I do to improve myself as a player? Thanks, J.P.

Why the Indian Cricket Board,cannot provide quality equipments and facilities to our players? The Indian Cricket board is the richest cricket board in the world, still it cannot provide quality players with quality equipments and proper facilities, when compared to the Australian Cricket Board. How is it that the selection committee and the board of selectors get richer day by day?????Some of the best young talents in the world are held back by selectors for reasons that they are not financially wealthy. i.e If we take a look at almoat all the players in the Indian Cricket team, all have a wealthy Financial background. How does Politics get involved with selction of players. a proper and fair selection process should be conducted to encourage the young and worthfull talent.
Quick and easy meal ideas for 20+ blokes? It's my mate and my turn for our "cook up" at the cricket club in a couple of weeks and we're looking for quick and easy meal ideas that will cater for around 20 or so blokes. We did burgers last year and they were good but looking for something else this year. The cooking equipment we've got to work with is pretty basic (BBQ, stove, oven, microwave) so keep that in mind. Any ideas welcome, thanks everyone!
Cricket in general? Hello i posted a question earlier about cricket in Quebec and now i have another question. i have been looking for sum stuff to add to my presentation about the sport like rules and the way it is played but all the links i find aren't helping me. I am sorry if neone thinks i am insulting the sport but living in America no one ever talks about it so i am not to familiar with it. So if anyone has any helpful links that actually talk about the way the game is played, equipment used and positions. I would be very greatefull. Thanks and I apologize for ne inconvenience this question may cause but like i said earlier Americans aren't big on this sport and i am not finding helpful links. Thank you SO much for reading.
The most expensive sport? What is the most expensive sport? I walked into a sports store to buy a new bicycle and I noticed the price of fishing rods, and cricket equipment! They're remarkably expensive! A cricket kit itself with everything is absolutely expensive, no wonder here in Kenya everybody refers to cricket as a rich man's sport. What are the most expensive sports? hmm ok lets say nascar doesn't count as a sport say you want to play a sport at domestic level i.e. cricket, soccer, rugby etc which one is the most expensive to set up and buy equipment for.
gloves in hockey? in a recent (field) hockey (champions trophy) match between netherlands and spain with around 21.20 minutes to go till the end of the first half there was a penalty and someone put on gloves - except they looked like cricket batting gloves, were they? and also which other cricket equipment can be used in hockey? i know the ball is the same as a cricket white ball...
How can India goto the FIFA worldcup? (i know not anytime soon but maybe 20 or 30 years from now)? I want to see India goto FIFA world cup and compete against European and south American power houses of soccer before i die, well I'm 23 so i have lots of time (hopefully). So with a country thats overly obsessed with cricket, Parents forcing their kids into something other than what they actually want to pursue in life and no money how can they ever goto the world cup? But wait...money? if they have money for cricket equipment than buying a soccer ball, cleats and shin pads...geez i think should be around the same price? personally Soccer is way more fun and entertaining than cricket so what's this boring cricket stuff?? so why can't other kids out of that huge population see what i see that cricket is boring? and go about pursuing soccer?? maybe the media should help promote it? need more sponsors for facilities? start teaching kids soccer at ground level, meaning in schools? any other suggestions??
Should I sell my car? OK I've had this car for abour 2 years. Recently I've moved and I'm now sharing a room with a friend and paying very low rent. Part of the deal was that my friend should be able to use my car on the weekends, to carry his cricket equipment to the cricket grounds. But recently the car has begun costing a lot. It got vandalised recently (the area I live in is known to be dangerous), I have to pay insurance monthly, I have to register it, I have to pay for maintenance, and petrol prices are going up. It's an arkward situation because if I just sell the car I might have to move out on my own and pay more rent, but the car is costing me every month anyway, and I never use it. Any ideas?

Should the use of helmets in cricket be outlawed? This could improve batting techniques, as well as making the players more recognisable to supporters. A few months back I saw a New Zealand batsman (I think it may have been Craig Cumming), get whacked on the helmet by a short pitched delivery. There was a big dent in his helmet, and a huge white mark (it was an ODI). Next ball, he hit for six. There seems to be no sense of danger any more for batsmen: they are protected by their equipment. Not using helmets would mean they would have to improve their techniques. I realise that lives could potentially be at risk, but the numbers of cricketers being killed or seriously injured has always been, thankfully, very few and far between. Something has to be done, as the game is too batsman dominated. I seem to recall Don Bradman always wore a baggy green cap: not a helmet. Batting average 99.94. Viv Richards: helmetless. Richie Richardson: helmetless. Poor technique brings about being hit by a ball. Helmets mean batsmen aren't bothered. Obviously, less talented batsmen (eg. tailenders, may need to wear helmets). But do Ricky Ponting or Sachin Tendulkar really need helmets? Thanks KooKee: good points. Extreme DJ: Not that aggressive? Dennis Lillee? Jeff Thomson? Can't seem to remember them killing anyone. But perhaps batsmen were better equipped to deal with short pitched deliveries in those days, precisely because they weren't protected by a helmet?

Craaaaaazy taxes on you cell phone bill? I just started sprint about 2 weeks ago... I just got my first bill online today for a lot of money, and that was to be expected with activations and all of that nonsense... but here's the thing. I have a $39.99 plan I have $10 unlimited texting on that I have $7 equipment protection plan. It says my taxes and surcharges are $22.37 a month! $22.37 a month!?! Is it going to be this high the whole time I have this phone!? When I had cricket, it was $6.05 a month! I'm not paying $80 a month for 450 minutes on a stinkin cell phone! Anyone else have this problem? Do the taxes go down after the first bill or will I be paying these for my whole 2 year contract?!

is this a good 6th grade essay on baseball vs. softball? You hit the ball and run the bases, everyone thinks that’s it to baseball and softball…but there is more. Though you may only see the hitting of the ball or the running of the bases, it’s also the love of the game, the cheers of the crowd, the hard rules that you have to follow, and much more! It’s true; baseball and softball are almost the same sports except for a few major differences. I think that what you are about to hear will change your heart and spirit about baseball and softball, seeing how they are similar or different and all. Baseball and softball settings are kind of like the game Mirror Magic. You see the same thing, but if you look more closely there are some things that are different. Many lucky ones know the feeling of anxiety building as you walk done the darkened hallway, the smell of the fresh cut grass growing stronger and stronger, then finally the light opens up in front of you presenting the stadium ahead. This is the setting for American loving sports, baseball and softball. That’s right they may be different sports but they have the same setting. The tan line of the diamond on the grassy field is where they play. Though the game being performed may stink, and though it’s not your favorite team playing, no real American would turn down tickets to a game of either baseball or softball. That is why I say that the stadium shall always be full as long as the games of baseball and softball don’t die as passes by time. Both baseball and softball may be played on a diamond but they both don’t play the same game of food! Though there may be no insane man throwing peanuts yelling “Heads up!” like there usually would be at a baseball game, there is a snack bar to fill the hungry needs of fans at a softball game. So you may be walking into the same picture when visiting either a baseball or a softball game, but we all know they are different in their own way! Each game needs rules and though baseball and softball are quite similar in many ways, they are also different. Football, dodge ball, soccer…these are all sports with the most similar rules? Well they are baseball and softball. Imagine how boring a sport would be without players! Luckily baseball and softball both have 9-10 players. However, all the 9-10 players on each team can’t stay in one spot! That is why both baseball and softball have infielders and outfielders. Don’t hate the game cause they ‘aint the same! The differences are why we love ‘em! For those who don’t innings are when both teams of each game get to play, and while baseball has 9 innings softball has 7 innings. Overhand throws and underhand throws are two completely different things. One is more powerful, while the other one…not so much. So if you are wondering which has the more powerful throw, its baseball which uses the overhand throw, while softball uses the underhand throw? Though some may not like the rules and others think it’s unfair we still follow them with the kindness of our hearts. With no equipment and no players there would be nothing left but a dusty, empty field with crickets chirping in the background. However, I thank god every day that mankind solved that problem by creating equipment and having players! Bats and balls aren’t the only thing similar in the topic of baseball vs. softball. Sliding is a useful trick in both baseball and softball, but to do this safely, no matter what sport you need knee pads for the least; and both baseball and softball use them! Weather some people consider it “manly” or not, both sports have their difference. Baseball is considered to be a “manly sport” by many people. However, softball takes the lead as a “womanly sport”. I guess that’s why most boys join baseball while girls join softball. Due to the “manliness” of baseball the ball is a hard white ball with red-stitched like lines on either side, yet softball has a softer yellow ball instead. From this we all learn that there is nothing better than a bat, ball, and players to play and love the sport. Well, now you know what to do if you are ever faced with having a ball, bat and a diamond field…play either softball or baseball! However, remember that they each have there separate settings, rules, equipment, and players. Finally we now know that there are many different things in the world of baseball and softball. thanks for your help! my friend really appreaciates it (this wasn't mine it was my friends) she wanted to see wat people thought. she changed her conclusion and it wouldn't indent. and she said she was following the 5 paragraph rule so thats y its so long.
