And Richard, I get called Rich because otherwise it would get confusing, plus I don't like being called Richard so much...

Some very personal moments from yesterdays meetup
Neil's contorted face bares testament to the speed at which he was running, perhaps the only shame was that the ball had already travelled over the boundary line
I was there, one to tell the grandkids
Does this make the guy on the left the worst player ever?
Neil salutes the crowd on competion of his 3*
Spot the ball competition
But one feels Richard's new approach to the game will only lead to frustration

Amazing photos Rich, the first one is particularly hilarious.

Decent action on the ball from Neil (assuming its an offspinner).
Good seam position with what looks like some overspin included to make life hard for the batsman.
Wilf Rhodes said that spinners must get the ball above the eyeline of the batsman in order to force them to move their head and eyes and make judgement more difficult.
Congrats to Neil for upholding the fine traditional values of English spin bowling
Good photos BTW

Neil's ball is above the eyeline for the average England player two hours into flight to Australia for the 2006/7 Ashes.Goughy said:Wilf Rhodes said that spinners must get the ball above the eyeline of the batsman in order to force them to move their head and eyes and make judgement more difficult.
