Played all types.Hey guys,
If you have played cricket, was it with real ball (requiring pads, gloves, etc) or with tennis ball or the rubber ball?

This ball was a lot of fun. Hitting sixes was very easy. Cheap also. But the bounce was high, which meant that length deliveries would go over the batsman's head. You had to constantly over pitch the ball. I started bowling a lot of yorkers because of this. Short pitch deliveries were out of the question.Ye walla. Red color mein.
Isko Bombay rubber ball bolte hain. Its got great weight and carry and is hard (thick rubber) and has just the right bounce.
Pace waalon se lagti bhi solid hai.

In karachi paitoo, when wes were kids almost 40 odd years ago now......We'd take a tennis ball, and get the electrical tape. Wrap up dat tennis ball extremely tight until the tape was gone! and seal the end with fukkin super glue!This ball was a lot of fun. Hitting sixes was very easy. Cheap also.
