The reason my batting average is at 27 is because I ****ing bat at number 6and because I play with people who are older then me.in 3 months or so I will playing for usa under 19,

I am not saying I am really talented,but it is wrong to say that my average doesnt count because i played cricket in usa,as what blaze was suggesting in his post.

Such as loser Blaze
So you should have lots of NO''s, espically if your as good as you say you are. I guy I have known for quite a few years, whom is a year or two younger than you bats in a similar position. He plays second grade, and last seaosn averaged just a touch under 70. So if your a talented batsman batting in the middle/lower order you should have one of the highest averages in your team. But it seems your an average player, making excuses about why you have a ho hum average.

Batting at No 6 is arguably the easiest place to bat..

What I am saying is that you cannot read too much into your stats because I believe that you won't be playing a particuarly high standard of cricket because America isn't a strong cricketing nation.

I will give you this example. We have an exchange student who has just come to our school. He has played rugby for Italy under 19's yet he isn't good enough to play for our first XV. Our first XV is in the third division in Wellington college rugby.
just let me ask you one question,

how do you know I am not good?

You will clearly say because I play cricket in USA and I average 27 with the bat with out asking do we play in a grassroot level.

Averaging 27 on artificial wickets in any country is average. International class players would be averaging 60-100 if they didn't play on grass wickets

At the stage when i go bat there is little overs left,I had to give a go at some stage and hit the ball hard in order to get some runs That is the reason i dont find much runs,

Example
not an attacking player
the only time i get a chance to bat the way I like it is when we lose 6 early wickets,I have done that,Performed when the team needed me the most.
Grass is way to high,even timing it perfectly wont carry it to the boundry,so how you expect some one to get averages above 30?

Um last time I checked your number 6 batsman comes in at the fall of the 4th wicket. Not after 6 early wickets? Do you even play cricket?

No I am not a International class player,

I am arguing with you and the reason behind it is,

Do not underestimate people mate,

Whether I play cricket in
America
Australia
bangladesh
pakistan
India
West indies
Sri lanka
Zimbabwe
new zealand

You have no reason to say that my average doesnt count because I am playing in etc etc
you know I have worked hard to get my wickets and score my runs and when some one comes and says that My average doesnt count because I am playing cricket in a non playing cricket country,That is whas ****'s me off,

May be you are better then me'I know you are better then me I know it is really hard competition in new zealand,but every one do it their own way.
