Still Leaving His Mark

The Little Master just keeps keeping on, and you don't need a scanner to read what's on his mind - more runs!

Guess Who?

A classical shot from a classical player - but who is it?

Well done Nair - we should spare a thought for the Great Wall of India, all those contributions and no World Cup reward at the end.

Hot And Topical

Well this one is lot more current and a lot easier.

Don't make me have to give you any clues!

Alright, here is some help - think red and fiery.

Answer:

The mad(?) Mark Vermeulen, arsonist and batsman.

A Sweeping Blur

Go on. Guess who.

A Fine Balance

Niall O'Brien displays a finely tuned sense of balance rarely seen or even needed on a cricket pitch. The shot can be described as the no foot glide and seems unlikely to make the coaching manuals in the near future.

Another Guess

I enjoyed the banter from our last guessing game so here is another. The only clue for this one is "100".

Comprehensively Out

When you're gone, you're gone.

A Classic Shot

The Sweep. A glorious shot, but who is playing this particular one?

And the answer is ..........

Jonty Rhodes (no I wouldn't have got it either if I didn't already know)

Touch and Go

Good to see players on either side of the pitch, watching their bat grounding, bats in the right hand, not watching the ball. Well done that coach!

Deconstruction

Some days you just feel shattered and none of the bits seem to fit.

Every Picture Tells a Story

In this case it is a tale of defeat. A tale that all those who have ever held a bat can relate to.

Hit Me With Your Best Shot

So the survey is over and low and behold the favourite strokes are the cut and the pull. With people favouring these square of the wicket show off shots it is no wonder some clowns think that 20/20, twenty20, T20 (or what ever it is called this week) should be an excitement machine and a money generator.

Had the subtle leg glance won out I would have felt a lot better about the games future.

And who might the pictured exponents be? Now that's an easy question.
