      Yeah, white is so the ball is easier to see at night under lights. Test cricket is played during sunlight hours so uses a red ball. Also test cricket the players wear traditional white while short form one day and t20 use coloured uniforms. Don't watch t20 so not sure if there is an easy way to I.d. between the 2 short games.

    In cricket you can have an idea of what line and length the ball will be bowled by the field placement. You’re allowed to adjust the position of your fielders before each bowled ball. This is done by either the captain or bowler. This can also be used as a decoy to surprise the batsman with a ball he wasn’t expecting

    The female wicket keeper read the play because the batter set up to "reverse sweep" which is essentially like switching from a lefty to a righty, mid delivery. The keeper saw her switching so had time to read and move. This is only really something that happens if the batter significantly shifts their stance, mid delivery

      Other close in fielders may react to the length the ball is pitched before the batter plays a shot. Players fielding right under the nose of the batter may take evasive action if the ball is short and likely to be smashed directly at them.

    It's good that you guys are reading the comments and trying to learn the game. Give it some time & this sport will grow on you. Also Red Ball cricket means Test cricket(5 days) & white ball cricket means one day(50 over) & T20 (20 over) cricket. Other way to remember that is white jersey means test cricket & colourful jersey means T20 or one day Cricket.
    One more thing about this video & why those catches are special is because those balls are really tough and heavy. Upon that it moves in the air due to the wind & you have to position your body, keep the eyes on the ball & then catch the ball. Infact those ball are so tough that they can really injure anyone if they get hit by one of those on their head or any part of their body. It also hurt when you catch them with your bare hand & in some cases if your technique is not proper then it can also fracture your fingers. But cricketers are so used to catching the ball that they became kind of immune to pain or more likely they anticipate the pain beforehand.

    20:28 The Strauss catch moment was from the 2005 Ashes. Gilchrist was an extremely dangerous matchwinning batsman. The series was extremely tight so getting him out is a huge moment in any innings let alone in such an edge of seat series. Honestly I've never experienced such tension for weeks like that series. It was a heart stopper.
    The Ben Stokes catch you saw before that Australia were basically routed. They were getting annihilated and so that wicket was of low consequence. Basically just rubbed salt into the wound.

    The Ashes matches between Australia and England are always emotionally charged. They are always test matches, so are scheduled to last 5 days. In this modern era, they tend to finish earlier as the games are played more skilfully and are played to win rather than to a draw. In the past there were many more drawn games. The Aussies are leading England in series wins at the moment, 34-32. The current series is being played in England as we speak, with Australia having won the first game.

    The catch by Sarah Taylor (regarded as one the great wicket-keepers in women's or men's cricket) was about reading the footwork and set up of the batter. The 'funky' reverse sweeps and 'ramp' type shots generally require a hint of premeditation by the batter. Initially Sarah is reacting to the line of the ball but then she picks up on the batter's intentions and reacts with incredible speed. Having been a keeper for 25 years I know that is an amazing catch.

    This is fantastic! Well done, gents. Another sports channel on UA-cam recently got me into cricket and now I'm OBSESSED.
    If you can find a good compilation of run outs, they're amazing to watch. Some of the running, twisting, and blind wickets the fielders pull off are unbelievable. To snag a ball, whip around in mid-air, and chuck it at the stumps from 20+ yards away is such a satisfying and beautiful example of athleticism.
    (A bunch of people have probably already made this comment, but the "home run" line is just called the boundry, as far as I know.)

    If you notice, the Bowlers run in at different speeds...that's an indicator of what type of bowl the bowler is going to throw...it the bowler is sprinting in from deep, they are Seam Bowlers(fast ball) .. if they just running middle speed, they are Swing Bowlers(Curve Ball) and the bowlers that look like the just walking up are your Spin Bowlers(that put so much spin on the ball, as it hits the pitch, it bounces back up in a totally different direction) .. so although the wicket keeper (the guy behind the stumps with the gloves) doesn't know exactly what type of delivery will be coming, he will have an idea of the speed and bounce depending on the type of bowler who's bowling..

    Hi guys! Firstly thank you for taking interest in cricket that itself is great to see.. it may seem alien at first but with time you guys will be pros at it.. my two cents for your better understanding is that in International Cricket we have majorly two major formats namely, red ball cricket & white ball cricket.. So Test matches are red ball cricket which are played in white clothing & can last for five whole days & is the oldest & longest form of the game while white ball cricket is played in coloured clothing & has limited overs of balls to play.. white ball cricket on the other hand is further divided into two formats of One Day Internationals or ODI's which have a total of fifty overs for each side & is played within a day's time & the second white ball format is called the T20I's or T20 Internationals which have a total of 20 overs for each side & the game can last for 3 to 4 Hrs making it the shortest format of the game.. and yes you are right that because of the length of the game Test Cricket or Red Ball Cricket is a test of patience, endurance & technique while the shorter formats of white ball cricket is about maximising the scoring within the limited time frame thus, more unorthodox & relentless hitting is preferred.. hope that helps a little.. Cheers!

    This is actually a really good reaction video. I've watched quite a few videos of Americans (particularly those who know baseball well) reacting to cricket, and you two seem to have a really good understanding of what might be involved in the game. Sure, you messed up some little details, like the whole red vs white thing; but questions like whether the wicketkeeper and the bowler are communicating about where the ball will go are actually really insightful.
    The thing that you don't pick up from highlight videos or "best of" compilations is that cricket has a kind of rhythm to it. The bowler bowls the ball six times, and then there's a bit of a break while the fielders move around, and then a new bowler bowls the next set of six deliveries, from the opposite end of the park. Each set of six deliveries is called an over. But in that break between the overs, the captain and the next bowler will discuss what bowling variations to use, and how to position the fielders. If the bowler is going to do anything innovative, the wicketkeeper will be made aware too.
    So it's very much a game of team strategy and communication, a lot of which happens between the overs.

    Anticipation comes from 1. Studying the posture of the bastman, typically through tape 2. During team practices, the bowler will discuss plays and the corresponding fielding position he wants 3. On field play by play adjustments by the captain based on how the bastman is batting.

  • @RianMeier
    @RianMeier 10 місяців тому +3

    Ok so a few things. Yes different fields have different boundry sizes. This can even differ between games at the same field. If you look at the videos you will see large rectangle around the pitch where they are playing. The pitch for the next match can be prepared anywhere on this area and is usually determined by the grounds keeper with the home team.
    Someone else already mentioned the ball coulours you had mixed up. Also if the players are wearing coloured clothing then its not a test match (5 day). Red ball means it's played only during the day only. White ball usually means they play during the day and at night. I have seen day games with white ball but it is rare and it would be a safe assumption some portion of the game is at night. So white ball is One Day (50 overs) or T20 (20 overs). If there is daylight its probably not a T20, because those games are short and is usually played at night only (there might be exceptions but it would be a safe assumption again).
    For red ball games it is either a One Day 50 overs) or Test Match (5 day). Test matches the players will always be in white. One days are played in either white or colored clothes. Test matches are very traditional/formal in rules and attire so if they are all dressed in white so one way to be fairly certain it's a test match is if the players (except the bowler) are wearing knittet jerseys/vests.

  • @abbasiabbasi7518
    @abbasiabbasi7518 10 місяців тому +2

    How do they move even before the ball being bowled? The answer is mainly because of the field set-up. The batsman assesses the field and then he can guess where the bowler will "most likely" bowl. And if you are good enough you can manipulate and use it to your advantage.

  • @SOHRABSWING
    @SOHRABSWING 10 місяців тому +5

    a correction. It is not the color of the ball by which you can tell the format of Cricket but the color of the uniforms. However, Test Cricket is red ball Cricket and limited over Cricket (T-20, etc) is generally white ball Cricket.
    Regarding the question on whether the catcher has anything to do with what type of delivery a bowler would bowl, generally no but it does happen now and then that the catcher would signal.
    The dimensions of the pitch is always same but the perimeter (boundary) can be any shape or size (I guess there is a min though).

    • @ryansidley1833
      @ryansidley1833 10 місяців тому

      It is the colour of the ball that technically determines the different in professional cricket. First class and test matches are called "red ball" and limited overs are called "white ball" cricket.
      Also, fielding positions do determine the delivery the bowler bowls. Bowlers do bowl to their field. If a captain stacks the leg side and has a deep fine, deep square and deep mid wicket, the bowler will bowl short. The catchers don't "call", but fielders are placed in certain positions to take a catch, so the bowler will bowl a certain way to try and make that happen

    Something to take into consideration for baseball fans who don't know cricket, the ball is both heavier and harder than a baseball, and the stitching that holds the ball together is raised, so it will rip your skin apart if you're not careful.
    Also, when the ball goes into the crowd, the crowd gives it back, since the condition of the ball is an important factor of the game; as play progresses, the ball softens, and one side of the ball becomes rough and the other side keeps being polished, allowing the bowler to swing and curve through the air.

    'Slip' catching behind the wicket is so difficult; the reaction time is so small and the angle of vision difficult. Most people just cannot do it, when you pick a pro team you have to ensure you have quality slip catchers or you will struggle to win games. One aspect can be that a fielder there may have to wait hours for an edge to come and then he/she has to catch it.

It's the Bowler who decides which Delivery to Bowl basically predicting how the Batsman will react to it, in other words he's trying to force the Batsman to hit the Ball in the direction he has placed a Fielder to Catch the Ball.
    10:36 But it's a bit different with the Wicket Keeper who's standing close to the Batsman/Batswoman studying their footwork & often can be seen advising the Bowler regarding which Delivery may be troubling the Batsman/Batswom. Same goes for other Fielders standing right next to the Wicket Keeper or the Batsman/Batswom, they too can co-ordinate with the Bowler sometimes.
    15:02 In Cricket, the Pitch has a standard dimension so its size can't change. But the Outfield doesn't which is unfortunate coz this allows countries to bring the Boundary Lines in to get more 6s. This results in smaller Outfields on the same Cricket Ground than earlier days.

    All the ball has to do is contact the boundary or beyond without first touching the ground first. If it touches the ground on the way to the boundary it scores four runs. If it reaches the boundary or beyond without touching the ground it’s a six. If you touch the ground beyond the boundary with the ball in your hand the ball is deemed to have touched the ground, even if you are holding it at arms length above your head. That’s why the fielders try to throw the ball back into play before they hit the ground.

    The Home Run line is called the Boundary. And if the ball goes over the boundary without bouncing, it's a Six. If the ball bounces before going over the boundary it's a four.

    What you guys have to understand is that catches behind the wickets (keeper, slips, gully) travel much faster tthan balls hit forward, so there is a lot less time to catch it.

    Captains and bowlers will place fielders in specific positions, then very often bowl in a way to force the batsmen to play shots that are forced or reckless or not comfortable for that batsman.
    Sometimes they will keep frustrating the batter until he just cracks and does something daft. - especially in one day cricket , when they could be chasing a high score and have to start taking risks

  • @RichardGadsden

    As a wicket keeper (with gloves on) or a slip (standing next to the keeper, bare hands), you have a defined territory to cover. I've never kept wicket, so I can't really say for them, but as first (closest to the keeper) slip, you watch the outside edge of the bat (the edge away from the player). You're always expecting the ball to catch the edge and your job it to grab it, so you're anticipating that. If it hits the other edge (the inside edge), it's the keeper's ball anyway. Second slip watches the ball; they are supposed to judge height much more than a first slip (it's hard to judge height if you don't watch the bounce - but as first slip, the bat is physically in the way of your line of sight to the bounce). The thicker the edge, the wider it goes away from the line, and that also takes more speed off the ball, so there's more reaction time. So a first slip shouldn't be able to catch one above their head as there isn't time - you should be going down because the hardest catches are the low ones, where you have the least time, but prepared to bring your hands up to the chest. A second slip has a fraction of a second longer, giving them a chance to reach up for a catch. The wider you get, the further apart the slips should stand (they have more time, they can cover more ground) and the more you can expect in terms of acrobatic catches. Some of these are from like fifth slip or gulley (slips face forward; gulleys stand past the end of the slip line and turn to face the bat, ie standing more sideways) and those are positions where you expect that sort of thing. I'm not saying they're not great catches - but if you see a first slip grab one just above his head, that's as hard or harder than some of these where the fourth or fifth slip gets to show off their vertical.
    As you can probably tell, I was always first or second slip, and will very much stand up for the guys fielding there: you have to concentrate on every ball, you have to have reactions, and you don't get to pull off a dramatic catch that hits a highlight reel very often.

    Another way is white clothes = test cricket, coloured clothing is limited overs. Unlike baseball it's a very rare occasion where a bowler or wicketkeeper will call where they want the next delivery. All cricket fields are a different size and sometimes shape.

    The two players that will largely know how the ball is bowled is the batsman and the wicket keeper... Usually there is no signal between bowler and wicket keeper but the wicket keeper has a clear view of the ball movement plus he or she has a good view of the batsmen movement as well which a good wicket keeper will anticipate before hand and start moving into the direction of the shot

    size of the cricket grounds do vary, only the pitch area is fixed to be 22 yards. Boundaries of the grounds can vary from 50 to 80 meters from the batsman's position and the ground is not necessarily a circle with perfect radius all along, more often than not one side will be bigger than the other, granting both teams to play on the probabilities on when to go for a six and when to not , and same goes for the bowlin team, when to prompt for a six or not.

    If the keeper has an idea or sees a weakness in the batsman he can signal the bowler with his gloves etc or where he stands or tap his shoulder for a bouncer...... but doesn’t happen often and many bowlers would ignore it anyway.
    Sometimes the team or captain devise a plan before the game starts....... it is a team sport so there are always tactics and discussions.

    those catches at behind the wicket are called keeper (with gloves) catches or slip catches ( regular fielders). sometimes you can have 1 slip or you can have 6 slips. and those catches don't have a lot of time to react unlike catches off of a good stroke, because the ball is speeding away pretty fast.

    They don't call shots as per baseball. But there is a lot of research and planning ahead of time from watching a lot of video.
    Batter 'x' reacts to a certain type of delivery in a certain way a lot of the time so they plan the field placements and strategies to best increase their chances of getting a favourable outcome.

    In taking catches like that, the bare hands part is really not difficult. If you cushion the hands and spread the impact between your fingers, which flex, it’s honestly fine. Also remember that, apart from the wicketkeeper - who wears gloves - you’re only taking the ball at speed a few times. It’s not like it’s over and over like a base man in baseball.

  • @ratulahmed2823

    After every over (6balls) either team captain or the bowler himself set the fielders at different positions according to the plan where he is going to deliver his ball or what kind of line or variation the bowler wants to . Its part of strategy, thats how keeper and other fielders can anticipate where the ball gonna be.

    Red Ball Test Cricket which you’re right goes for 5 days, White Ball is for limited overs which is 50 overs per side and t20 cricket 20 overs per side. Best catch I’ve seen was by former Australian Captain Mark Taylor. He falls on his back, kicks the ball up in the air and catches it while laying down. The ropes off area is called the boundary, if the ball goes over on the full the batter and team get 6 runs, but if the ball hits the ground before going over the rope the batter and team only get 4 runs

    the hardest part of a bare handed catch is when you land and your elbow knocks on the ground by reflex you let go of the ball. and if the ball is wet it is hard to trap the ball. so it is much harder to catch it than with gloved in base ball where the ball is automatically trapped in the glove. sometimes it gets stuck in the glove. so yea bare handed catches keeps the viewers in suspense all the way to the end.

    Couple of points
    If you know motor racing a test match is like Le Mans. It will test your technical ability, your patience, your judgement to pick the right ball to attack or leave or defend, selection of your shots and also your endurance.
    Regarding reacting to catches and anticipation you asked, for spinners for whom the wicket keeper is standing closer to the stumps, it has two primary factors, first is seeing this bowler in practice nets to know subtle changes in bowling styles, hand grips and sometimes the way they approach the crease before releasing the ball, and then second factor is to notice closely how the ball left the hand because that will determine if the bowler threw a ball that will behave differently with a normal grip and release to fool the batsman. These things help to anticipate sometimes.

  • @dansegelov305
    @dansegelov305 10 місяців тому +1

    It's hard for the keeper to lead the bowler in cricket because there is a second batsman on the pitch facing him seeing any signals too. Generally, the fielding team's captain sets the field for particular types of bowling for particular batsmen and particular stages of the game. eg, bowling at the wickets encourages 'leg-side' shots, bowling wide of the wickets encourages 'off-side' hits.
    Ps you got the ball colour wrong. Red ball/all white clothing - Test match. White ball/coloured clothing limited overs.

    The bowlers usually know how the field should be set because the bowler knows by the way he bowls where the ball is likely to go. You often see the captain talking with the bowler to make adjustments to the field. Yes there is a lot of anticipating going on. No, the pitch is 22 yards long, that never changes, what changes is the field. Some fields are true ovals some are irregular shaped some have long boundaries some short. There is always a boundary rope (that triangular thing with the adverts) that follows the oval shape regardless of how the field is shaped. There is no set area of how big the field should be.

    The best catch in the world is Keron Pollard boundry line catch playing for Mumbai Indians. It was the biggest jump near the rope, throwed it in and then ran atleast 7-8 big steps and another incredible impossible dive to seal the deal.
    No other catches compare to it because only the guy of his size could have pulled that off. No Jadeja, No Monty, Mc Cullam or anyone else simply wouldnt have reached that height.
