Insouciance - light-hearted unconcern.marc71178 said:WTF is "an environment of relaxed insouciance."?
That is about all I have to say about that.
So Terry Jenner has had another moan, big deal.
He's only famous because he helped one player become a star, and who's to say that player wouldn't have done it on his own?

He has a lot of points there which really arent wrong and i can understand as im a leggie whos gets pulled too often for my captains liking...
can someone explain to me how to bowl a flipper, googly are easy as are topspinners but flippers have evaded me....

Check out the BBC Academy website - you might have to dig around but I'm pretty sure you'll find all you need to know.gibbsnsmith said:im sorry but ive never heard of jenner, am i sjupposed to have, can someone please say something about him.

Don't tell Chris that, he'd say you're not a real leg spinner.!Jacques Rudolph said:Im a leggie and I bowl flat because quite naturally i dont want to be hit for sixes... Its not that hard to undrestand!
Id rather bowl 10-1-30-1 than 10-0-60-3
Oh so do loads of people, but all club players play one day cricket, so its imperitive they keep the runs right down, then who needs to take wickets?marc71178 said:Don't tell Chris that, he'd say you're not a real leg spinner.!
Perhaps, but i underatand Jenner and the way he pretichs leg spin and the way about itmarc71178 said:Chris, if your brother wasn't a leg spinner, you wouldn't even be championing them.
Face facts. There are NO English spinners that are world class, becauser the conditions are not suited to producing them.

" OH I dont wanna be hit for a six i dont wanna cry to my mommy " GROW UP MATE!!!!!!!!
it does not matter if you get hit for six the next ball is a new challenge and the odds are that when you got hit for six you where meters away from a catch...... also i bet you have not been spotted by jenner becasue of bowling flat and you are unlikley to improve...... that is just the way it is
and to say you want take 3 wickets shows you not a risk taker and therfore there is no need for you to bowl leg spin try medium pace instead you be ok then............
no it not it means he is acting like an idiot but if that what he believes then he can go on his merry way but he is unlikely to take 7 wickets in a matchNeil Pickup said:Name-calling is the sign of a lost argument.
All you are showing here is exactly what you are criticising Marc for - a narrow mind.
For starters, there's a world of difference between spin, even flat spin, and medium pace. Around 20mph for starters. Spin comes in many guises in the same way that though Anderson and Flintoff bowl at similar pace and are both RFM, they are hugely different bowlers.
And why can't Terry Jenner get Adams to bowl something that turns the "right" way?
