The balsinn is exempted from the worry of having to look ou for some trick or for the unex- preted, and can play almost automatically without the risk of a false stroke.
VARIETY FÖR SUCCESS Apart from the very fast bowder who depends on sheer Lace and therefore hurls down every ball with as much venom and energy as he can command, bowlers must rely, after length, on variety for success. And this what should make cricket so fascinating for them.
So once your action is good and you are accurate, then you must start thinking the batsman out. On the other hand never try too much, for surprise is the most useful weapon. So often hear a man when foozled out "I never expected him to bowl me one like that."
