    Bats, gloves, shoes, gurads

    Yes, sometimes that happens. There are 3 main reasons: Avoiding strong batter To fill all bases when losing 1 point means the end of game Not to give opportunity to hit for the best-average batter race (walk by 4 balls is not counted)

    Bats, gloves, shoes, gurads

    Sometimes that happens in Baseball, even including fractures. And very often pitchers in the batter box do not try to hit ball, because the damage to the hands by hitting ball has negative effect on pitching.

    No, that video was suggested as one of the related ones from other video.

    Then, why wicket-keeper change helmet and cap, despite there is a risk of losing 5 runs by placing his/her helmet on the ground?

    Thank you. And I have a question about Danny Morrison's helmet. His helmet does not have front-side protection. Could anyone tell me the reason? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaIUmRoA3Xc

    Why is a helmet on the ground? What happens when a batted/thrown ball hit the helmet? And I found something different from helmet. What is that? Could you tell me all things other than players, umpires, wickets, boundary rope on the ground?

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    O, 4.26 difference is not small. What can be the reason for that?

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    Thank you very much.

    CW Meet Up - Barbados May 1-5 2015

    Is there a West Indies league competition? If yes, what kind of game (T20, etc)?

    CW Meet Up - Barbados May 1-5 2015

    Could you tell me how many Barbados Cricketers play for the West Indies team? Could you tell me anything about Club Cricket in Barbados?

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    Thank you. And another question. Do you know any Both-handed Batsman? (Batsman who changes right-handed and left-handed in accordance to Bowler)
  12. Lokomotiv

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    So why none answer this question? Since in Basegall there are many good Left-handed Batters whose handedness is right, there is no need for Cricket Batsmen to bat normally. Batting hands can be changed.

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    Yeah, also there was a very small number of "switch-pitchers", who do right-handed pitching against right-handed batters and left-handed pitching against left-handed batters. But no one has ever been successful, unlike switch-hitters. And in the Baseball history there has been a number of...

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    After Scottish independence, what will be the new name for Scotland Yard?
  15. Lokomotiv

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    So are there Right-handed bowling Left-handed Batsmen or vice versa in Cricket? In Bowling, changing handedness is extremely difficult, but it is possible in Batting.

    Why is a helmet on the ground?
  17. Lokomotiv

    Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen

    There are Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen. Is there any advantage or disadvantage for Right-handed and Left-handed Batsmen? In Baseball, Left-handed Batters have clear advantage. So there are many Left-handed Batters who throw balls by right hand. And in Baseball there are...

    Bats, gloves, shoes, gurads

    Just now I watched an ODI between Ireland and Scotland. I have questions. Sometimes there is something like helmet on the ground behind Wicket-Keeper. What is that? Why there is no video referee? In competitive games (like World Cup or World Cricket League), are video referee and LBW...

    Could you tell me why the Batsman gloves are so gigantic, in comparison with Baseball's Batter gloves?
  20. Lokomotiv

    Bats, gloves, shoes, gurads

    Cricket uniforms (shirt, trousers, cap) are given by contracted suppliers of club teams and national teams. But bats, gloves, shoes and guards are up to every players, right? Could you tell me why Batsman gloves are far bigger than Baseball batter gloves? Why there is no elbow protection unlike...
