Bowling Variations

In normal one day cricket (not in the power plays), bowl to hit your length for the first four balls of each over. Build up pressure early in the over, the batter wants to score, so you don’t let him score for the first part of the over. The wicket taking ball ( the variation ) is typically the 5th ball of the over, if you don’t take a wicket with the 5th ball you bowl a ‘dot’ ball ( hit your optimal length ) again on the sixth ball so that the batter is kept at that end to hold the pressure on the batting team and hand it over to the bowler from the other end. Variation for the 5th ball … Width in the crease: You can either go slightly wider in the crease and aim to bowl a full length for the batter to drive, caught at slip, gully or cover if he chases the ball and plays away from his body. Even more potent if you can swing the ball away. You can bowl an off cutter, like a fast off spinner, outside off stump to spin back and hit off or middle stump … or he mistime

Panicing before bowling

Hello Ali, The reason I think you are having this problem is that you are thinking too much. Keep your mind calm before starting to bowl, take 2-3 deep breathes. Stop thinking about the outcome of the ball (for now). Do not worry about pace. Start slow, do not take a long run-up try to keep it short. First work in line and length. Do not worry if speed is slow, no problem. Do meditation daily, do exercise (Running is must daily also do stretching daily). Do not worry about front foot NO Balls in starting stage, work on run-up line and length only then slowly start correcting your mistakes. Practice daily.
