I'm a cricket player from England. That thing he did with his bat on the ground... He was taking guard. The two sets of stumps are in line with each other. Knowing where the stumps are is a big part of batting. The most common one is centre (middle of the middle stump) but there are others. The umpire will confirm whether the batsman is right and will direct him if not, tell him where to move his bat. The batsman then marks that line with the spikes on his shoes so he knows where that line is. That's what he was doing.
@Lol Rofl BBL is indeed the T20 cricket league of Australia and theres a WBBL for women too. there are 8 teams and each is allowed only 2 foreigners on contracts, while all the rest of the team must be from Australia and specific state
Probably coz you don't follow any other sport mate. Let's start with field hockey and volleyball. Soccer is played throughout the year between countries. WC Qualifying practically starts soon after the tournament is over. So it's not the only sport.
Many West Indies players are one of the big hitters in present time, Chris Gayle , Russell, Pollard ,these three something destroy the bowler's confidence completely in the entire match
The strike rate means that how many runs the batsman scored per 100 balls... It is a calculation of the total amount of runs he scored in carrer and how many balls he faced while scoring those runs... Example: if any batsman scored 1400 runs in his carrer and faced 1000 balls then the calculation is, (1400÷1000) x 100 = 140 His strike rate is 140
Soumalya Barman...I'm a Caribbean MAN FROM Jamaica, and I must confess that this is the first time I am informed what the strike rate means, Thank you so much..
Strike rate is basically calculating how many balls it takes to make a certain amount of runs...so the more runs you can score of a limited amount of balls, the higher your strike rate will be
Its basically the number of runs you can score in 100 balls.. if you score 150 of 100 balls, then your strike rate would be 150, if you score 20.. your strike rate is 20
Batsmen want the bottom of their bat to rest on a line that is in line with stumps at both ends, e.g. middle and leg (batsman’s end and bowlers’ end), middle and off, etc.; it’s called taking your block
Chris Gayle is the best t20 Batman's man in the world. No one not even comes to half of what he have done he as all the records; the highest runs getter, most 4, most 6, most 50, most 100, the highest score, fastest 100 and fastest 50
YORKER:When a fast bowler bowls a full ball aimed straight into the toes(shoes) of the batsman....and hence the batsman cannot get under the ball to Hit it far!!! A Yorker usually fetches a wicket or a dot ball(no run)......It's a great ball, but VERY DIFFICULT to EXECUTE!!!!! Especially Under pressure!! REASON: If a bowler tries a Yorker in a close game....and he misses his radar, it will become a FULLTOSS to a batsman...who will most probably smoke it out for a 4 or a 6!!!!
yorker can be converted to full toss by nice footwork, or else you can manipulate it if you have enough skills.. or you can just duck it.. or direct it for singles.. your theory is correct about how its done and tough it is to do.. but dot or wicket depends on batsman, how good he is.
Just gonna comment on a few things. Firstly, when he was dragging his foot on the ground he was marking where the middle stump is. That’s what the bowlers try to hit. The three stumps Secondly the fielders and umpires switch sides depending if it’s a left or right handed batter And lastly catching the ball in the stand is a big thing in cricket. You can literally win money if you do at certain times. And you have to give the ball back. You can’t keep it.
Your strike rate is the number of runs you score divided by the number of balls you face, multiplied by 100. Runs scored ------ x 100 = Strike rate Balls faced The higher the strike rate, the faster the batsman has scored runs. In this case, Chris Gayle’s T20 strike rate is 149 which is classed as very good.
Chris gayle once hit a six and injured a person from the audience. He then after the game paid him an visit in the hospital and gave him autographs and selfie. He’s a real nice guy off the field as well❤️ love from Canada . Love your work
A 'Yorker' is when the bowler aims for the feet. Really hard to do. Because if the bowler gets the length slightly off, the batter could easily hit you for 6. But if you can hit the feet, it's SO hard to dig those out and not get out.
the hit at 10.00 is a 'free hit' that is why gale put so much power into it, he couldn't be out. This is because the previous delivery was a no-ball on height, came at him above waist height without bouncing.
KFC (the biggest sponsor for the bbl) supplies fans with bucket hats (a cardboard bucket that they put KFC in.) If fans catch the ball in the bucket they get free KFC, but if they don’t catch it in the bucket but in their hands they get featured on tv in the following matches and can get a reward at the end of the season for best crowd catch.
Replying to a few things you mentioned… - Strike rate = average runs scored per 100 balls faced. in this format (T20) anything above a strike rate of 135 is pretty impressive. - The Big Bash is Australia's primary T20 competition - Partly why Gayle doesn't have to swing hard is because his bat is around 3 pounds - The crowd is not meant to keep the ball in cricket, because the condition of the ball plays a big part in the game…but people do sometimes… - Yorker is a ball that pitches right at the batsman's feet
@Average American 1.

Each side get to bat 2 innings. No balling/batting duration/number restrictions, goal is to beat the combined total of both innings of one team by the other team. 3. Batting strike rate - How many runs a batsman has scored for 100 balls he has faced considering his previous played matched (for each format of the game this strike rate will be separately calculated) 4. Balling strike rate - How many runs a bowler has given before he takes a wicket (runs scored against him divided by wickets he has taken) . (for each format of the game this strike rate will be separately calculated) 5. An Over - consist of 6 deliveries by the bowler (same across formats) Cricket Slang ---------------------- 1 A Duck - means a batsman gets out for 'o' runs 2. Nelson - means when the scoreboard shows the team total score as "111". Which considered to be bad luck
When he was scratching the ground he was making a mark to let him know where the stumps were in relation to where he is standing. He knows if he can let a ball go through safely (as if he in was in a mood to let any ball go unsmacked!) or if he has to defend to prevent himself being bowled.
He played this BBL franchise cricket in AUSTRALIA. The game was in Melbourne in the stadium I usually sit for uni exams. This man 6 feet 4 inch CCarrobean man has huge bat and hit massive sixes.
When he is scratching the ground at the start he is marking a line on the batting crease so he can judge where he is standing in relation to the stumps behind him.
Strike rate is how many runs a batsman would score in 100 balls, so the statisticians can work out how many runs a batsman has scored and how many balls they've faced and work out how many runs per 100 balls. Higher is better. The thing he was doing at 7:15 was marking his "guard" with the spioe in his shoe, to give him a visual marker for where he will stand. Most batsmen take their guard on middle or middle and leg, and can then step away from or in front of their stumps if needed.
The six sixes video you saw earlier was the fastest 50 in T20 international in 12 balls and Gayle equal that record in this one. These 2 are absolute legends so no comparing
We want you learn cricket first till then no subscription from Indian cricket fans ....but once you learn it ...you will get millions of us without asking it ...cricket is a religion in India ...welcome at the outset ...bro keep it up
when the batsman scrapes a mark in the ground it is so he knows where to line up in front of the stumps (take guard). By lining up in the same place he can judge if the ball will hit the stumps and so can select the correct shot or defensive stroke. unlike baseball shot selection is key in cricket, in that way it is like tennis.
Strike rate is the number of runs scored for 100 ball faced, if it's above 100 it means the player scores on average more than one run every ball they face.
What he is doing with his feet is called 'taking guard' where you stand when batting is very important, most batter will take a 'middle' or 'leg' guard, this refers to the 'stump' that the batsman stands in line with
Strike Rate is the number of runs a batsman would score if he bats 100 balls at his current score. So if someone is batting on 30 of 20 balls, his strike rate is 30/20 * 100 = 150. So at his current scoring rate, he would score 150 runs in 100 balls. 149.1 strike rate is he would get around those many runs in 100 balls. It is an average value after many of his innings, so its in decimals.
It’s a bit like poker - the batsman can put the bowler on psychological ‘tilt’, when the bowler is emotionally shook up by intimidating six hit(s) his accuracy may go wayward - then “Kerching!” It’s a sort of domino effect.
A Yorker is a delivery that bounces just near your feet. It’s hard to get get under a Yorker and hit for a six, you also cannot push it for a boundary. It’s generally the best run-stopping ball. When directed with pace and some inswing, it can also be very difficult to keep out and can get a batsman bowled.
The thing with his feet, where he scratches a mark in the dirt, is him marking where he stands. It's so knows where he is in relation to the stumps, so he can judge whether the balls going to hit the stumps so can tell if he can leave the ball or needs to hit it.
A strike rate is the amount of runs a batsman would score on average after facing 100 balls. It's used in limited over formats of the game because the average might not be as important tactically. If you have an average of 45 runs, it doesn't look impressive, but in conjunction with a strike rate of 200 means it would only take 20 balls to get to that average, making the player a power hitter (for example)
The Strike Rate is an average based on how many runs they score for every 100 deliveries they face, over their career in that particular format of the game. So 149 is very good indeed
Haven't watched cricket since I was a kid. Probably one of the most scientific sports. Amazing game. There's so much going on in what you see here. A yorker is a delivery that's meant to land pretty much around the batsman toes, length wise. The bowler can choose which line he wants to put it, but it's not the easiest delivery. Mess it up and it can turn into a full toss (a delivery where the ball doesn't bounce before reaching the batsman), and bowling against a batsman like Gayle he'll whack that ball clean out of the stadium.
I was at the England New Zealand game at the Oval a couple of years ago, and towards the end of the game Liam Plunkett smashed a six, it was literally going to land in my lap, I was all ready to catch it and some bloody Kiwi in the row in front dived across 3 seats and proceeded to drop it. He claimed it was anyone’s to catch, we disagreed. Fortunately we got the tickets from my friend who works for Sky sports cricket and he immediately sent us all the angles of this guy stealing my catch. We showed him and made him admit he was wrong. You could even pinpoint the moment in the replays that I called the guy a dick. It was amazing. In retrospect he probably did me a favour - the game started at midday and this happened at about 8pm. I’d had about 15 Guinness by that point.
Big Bash is a 20 over tournament held in Australia in which each team plays 20 over each (i.e. 40 overs) which means 120 balls and 6 balls in one over.
Batsmen ask the umpire to tell them where their bat is in relation to the stumps. A common stance is to ask for the line where the bat is in front of middle stump. They then mark the position with their bat or their shoes, which is what you were asking about when Gayle was marking his guard.
A cricket bat weighs somewhere around 3-4lbs, so with a fast bowler around 80-90mph it doesnt take much, Scratching on the crease is taking guard to protect the wickets
batting strike rate is the number of runs a batsman scores per 100 balls faced i.e. the batsman's rate (speed) of scoring. The stat presented is for their career in t20 cricket or maybe just in this tournament or just in this tournament this year. less than 100 is slow, more than 100 is fast. in t20 all batsmen will try to score at a rate above 100 because there are so few overs they can try and score off every ball without too much fear the innings will end with 10 batsmen out before the full 20 overs are bowled. This is especially true because t20 and 50 over pitches are prepared to be batter friendly with good bounce but little lateral movement off the seam or turn for spinners.
I was sitting in a match and Chris Lynn hit a six straight too me, I caught it with my left hand bare handed cause we don't got gloved like in baseball and I had a red hand for like 3 days.
Gayle is from the West Indies. Strike rate of 149 means he scores 149 runs for every 100 balls he faces. His strike rate average. Best crowd catch: ua-cam.com/video/hUi71YtQIh0/v-deo.html
Yorker is the ball that is pitched at the toes of the batsman Spectators getting hit in stands is extremely rare but it does happen... As a matter of fact A kid was hit off a six by chris gayle in India... He visited him in the hospital as soon as the match finished Gayle is the most fun and chilled out sportsman. I remember when Afghanistan (an underdog team) defeated west indies.... Chrish gayle went ahead and celebrated with Afghanistan
Sometimes you see decent catches in the crowd, but the crowd usually drop the ball. They don't get to keep it. The condition of the ball matters in cricket, so we expect the ball to be returned. If the ball is lost, the third umpire runs on to the field with a box of balls and they try to find one in a similar condition.
Hi Average American I'm Paul I'm a retired umpire just to let you know a few things you can see the size of the ball it weighs 156 grams it can travel over 100 mph stump to stump is around 19 yards the white lines are called the crease the line in front of the stumps is 4ft from the stumps the distance between middle stump and the outer stumps is 4 and half inches that's a little bit about playing surface
Wait until you see AB de Villiers fastest hundred or any of his best ipl innings. Insane and almost impossible shots he pulls off. One of the best batsman to ever play the game and only retired last year.
You don't just need power to hit a six you also need a good timing a good connection with the ball and the ball will clear the Boundary effortlessly.watch a video called flat sixes in cricket
Also one of the reasons Chris gayle doesn’t hit so hard is because since the ball is coming in with so much pace if he can find the right spot in the bat the pace will do the rest of the work and since his is swinging slower he has more time to find the right spot on the bat. Sort of an aggression vs precision thing
You gotta understand the bowlers are bowling very quickly. One of the best skills a batsman can have in T20 cricket is the ability to use the balls speed to ensure easier maximum hits. Very often when they hit 6s or big 4s its from placement + using the speed of the ball. Thats why Gayle makes it look so easy. Master of timing
In cricket you don’t always need massive power. If you ‘time’ the shot perfectly, even a whip can go the distance. A push can fly to the boundary too Batting in cricket is more about technique than power. Of course Gayle has incredible power too, but timing is more important. Because the ball is already in the way up and with the fast bowler bowling there is already pace on the ball, properly timed shot just uses the pace on the ball and basically just redirects it. Just power with no timing will generally sky the ball for a catch.
The reasons it looks like he doesnt put much effory into it are 1. Hes a BIG GUY bout 6'3" 120kg so hes got alot of power 2. The ball is coming at him at bout 140kmph so he uses some of the balls speed You should react to the biggest sixes of all time( they do go out of the stadium alot)
7:30 Batsmen usually mark the stump they have to take guard of. So they mark it with the spikes on the boot. Here, Gayle had taken guard of the leftmost stump called legstump for a left handed batsman. Edit: Spectators are not allowed to keep the ball in cricket unlike baseball. They just throw it back to the field of play.
Firstly, good on you mate for learning about cricket and other sports/athletes around the world. You've got a lot more to learn but I can see you've come a long way already so keep it up. Cricket and AFL (Australian Football League) are Australia's most popular sports, even the women's leagues are finally getting more recognition/support. I'd like to see you react to women's cricket and AFL as they are equally skilled and tough.
11:34 A yorker is a ball bowled really full near his toes. It is bowled so that the batsman cant get the bat underneath the ball to hit it and get elevation. It is a really good ball to bowl when youre being smacked all over the place. Nearly impossible to hit and since you're bowling it that full, it has a good chance to hit the stumps and get you a wicket.
The thing he was doing with his foot was taking guard, this is when a batsman chooses which of the three stumps he wants to bat on or between, I said between because most batters bat between the middle and the leg stump
Yeah, so Chris Gayle is from the West Indies, which is an international team made up of players from the Caribbean nations. This match was in the Big Bash, which is an Australian T20 competition where each team may have a few non-Australian players, of which Chris Gayle is one. He has always been a big hitter, and he is a big guy, so when he hits them, they go far. He's been around a long time and has had the most success in the T20 format, probably because he is rumoured to not like running, and prefers to just stand there and smack 'em out the park. Spectators do get hit by balls going into the stands/grass area, but you are expected, as a spectator, to watch the ball and not turn your back on it when play is on. And some people do catch the ball when it goes into the stands; sometimes there are competitions where you can win a prize if you catch a ball cleanly with one hand whilst in the stands/on the grass spectators' area..

A cricket ball is actually harder than a baseball. Which makes the scoring and the catches more impressive than it looks.
Bro watch ab de villiers fastest odi century you will love it .you would have never seen something like that in cricket
Just gonna comment on a few things.
Firstly, when he was dragging his foot on the ground he was marking where the middle stump is. That’s what the bowlers try to hit. The three stumps
Secondly the fielders and umpires switch sides depending if it’s a left or right handed batter
And lastly catching the ball in the stand is a big thing in cricket. You can literally win money if you do at certain times. And you have to give the ball back. You can’t keep it.
It’s the only player to hit 175 runs in a T20 innings. One hold time struggles to hit 175 and Chris alone do that
Your strike rate is the number of runs you score divided by the number of balls you face, multiplied by 100.
Runs scored
------ x 100 = Strike rate
Balls faced
The higher the strike rate, the faster the batsman has scored runs. In this case, Chris Gayle’s T20 strike rate is 149 which is classed as very good.

Replying to a few things you mentioned…
- Strike rate = average runs scored per 100 balls faced. in this format (T20) anything above a strike rate of 135 is pretty impressive.
- The Big Bash is Australia's primary T20 competition
- Partly why Gayle doesn't have to swing hard is because his bat is around 3 pounds
- The crowd is not meant to keep the ball in cricket, because the condition of the ball plays a big part in the game…but people do sometimes…
- Yorker is a ball that pitches right at the batsman's feet
When you hit a cricket ball with the sweet spot of a cricket bat, it amplifies the power of the shot, making big hits look effortless

1. Batting average means - the total runs he has scored from all the matches of particular format of the game he/she played divides by number of total matches of that format of the game he/she has played. (for each format of the game this average will be separately calculated)
2. Balling average is the same this as in #1 but substitute number of wicked by a bowler instead of runs by a batter. (for each format of the game this average will be separately calculated)
2. Formats of the game. Rules may vary across formats (from shortest duration to the longest duration)
i. 6 a side matches - In which both teams get only 6 overs per side to bat/ball)
ii. 20/20 matches - each side get to bat and bowl 20 overs

No balling/batting duration/number restrictions, goal is to beat the combined total
of both innings of one team by the other team.
3. Batting strike rate - How many runs a batsman has scored for 100 balls he has faced considering his previous played matched (for each format of the game this strike rate will be separately calculated)
4. Balling strike rate - How many runs a bowler has given before he takes a wicket (runs scored against him divided by wickets he has taken) . (for each format of the game this strike rate will be separately calculated)
5. An Over - consist of 6 deliveries by the bowler (same across formats)
Cricket Slang
----------------------
1 A Duck - means a batsman gets out for 'o' runs
2. Nelson - means when the scoreboard shows the team total score as "111". Which considered to be bad luck
When he was scratching the ground he was making a mark to let him know where the stumps were in relation to where he is standing. He knows if he can let a ball go through safely (as if he in was in a mood to let any ball go unsmacked!) or if he has to defend to prevent himself being bowled.
He played this BBL franchise cricket in AUSTRALIA. The game was in Melbourne in the stadium I usually sit for uni exams. This man 6 feet 4 inch CCarrobean man has huge bat and hit massive sixes.
When he is scratching the ground at the start he is marking a line on the batting crease so he can judge where he is standing in relation to the stumps behind him.
Strike rate is how many runs a batsman would score in 100 balls, so the statisticians can work out how many runs a batsman has scored and how many balls they've faced and work out how many runs per 100 balls. Higher is better. The thing he was doing at 7:15 was marking his "guard" with the spioe in his shoe, to give him a visual marker for where he will stand. Most batsmen take their guard on middle or middle and leg, and can then step away from or in front of their stumps if needed.
The six sixes video you saw earlier was the fastest 50 in T20 international in 12 balls and Gayle equal that record in this one. These 2 are absolute legends so no comparing
We want you learn cricket first till then no subscription from Indian cricket fans ....but once you learn it ...you will get millions of us without asking it ...cricket is a religion in India ...welcome at the outset ...bro keep it up
when the batsman scrapes a mark in the ground it is so he knows where to line up in front of the stumps (take guard). By lining up in the same place he can judge if the ball will hit the stumps and so can select the correct shot or defensive stroke. unlike baseball shot selection is key in cricket, in that way it is like tennis.
The crowd are expected to throw the ball back.
Chris Gayle is from the West Indies so is automatically ultra cool.
Strike rate is the number of runs scored for 100 ball faced, if it's above 100 it means the player scores on average more than one run every ball they face.
If someone really wanna entertain himself then first know a little bit math about cricket
What he is doing with his feet is called 'taking guard' where you stand when batting is very important, most batter will take a 'middle' or 'leg' guard, this refers to the 'stump' that the batsman stands in line with
Strike Rate is the number of runs a batsman would score if he bats 100 balls at his current score. So if someone is batting on 30 of 20 balls, his strike rate is 30/20 * 100 = 150. So at his current scoring rate, he would score 150 runs in 100 balls. 149.1 strike rate is he would get around those many runs in 100 balls. It is an average value after many of his innings, so its in decimals.
With minimal research, you can answer a lot of the questions you have
It’s a bit like poker - the batsman can put the bowler on psychological ‘tilt’, when the bowler is emotionally shook up by intimidating six hit(s) his accuracy may go wayward - then “Kerching!” It’s a sort of domino effect.
A Yorker is a delivery that bounces just near your feet. It’s hard to get get under a Yorker and hit for a six, you also cannot push it for a boundary. It’s generally the best run-stopping ball. When directed with pace and some inswing, it can also be very difficult to keep out and can get a batsman bowled.
I myself an amateur cricketer and never hit a SIX in my life. Played my 50th match this Saturday, been playing since 2010, six seasons, still no luck.
The thing with his feet, where he scratches a mark in the dirt, is him marking where he stands. It's so knows where he is in relation to the stumps, so he can judge whether the balls going to hit the stumps so can tell if he can leave the ball or needs to hit it.
A strike rate is the amount of runs a batsman would score on average after facing 100 balls. It's used in limited over formats of the game because the average might not be as important tactically. If you have an average of 45 runs, it doesn't look impressive, but in conjunction with a strike rate of 200 means it would only take 20 balls to get to that average, making the player a power hitter (for example)
Notice the bat. The lower part is double thickness, or as they call it, the sweet spot. When the ball hits the sweet spot, it can really fly.
The Strike Rate is an average based on how many runs they score for every 100 deliveries they face, over their career in that particular format of the game. So 149 is very good indeed
Haven't watched cricket since I was a kid. Probably one of the most scientific sports. Amazing game. There's so much going on in what you see here.
A yorker is a delivery that's meant to land pretty much around the batsman toes, length wise. The bowler can choose which line he wants to put it, but it's not the easiest delivery. Mess it up and it can turn into a full toss (a delivery where the ball doesn't bounce before reaching the batsman), and bowling against a batsman like Gayle he'll whack that ball clean out of the stadium.
This is what’s incredible about Gayle. Everything looks effortless
Marking is line at the crease, 3 stumps behind you and you can use the middle or the leg stump for alignment towards the bowlers.
I was at the England New Zealand game at the Oval a couple of years ago, and towards the end of the game Liam Plunkett smashed a six, it was literally going to land in my lap, I was all ready to catch it and some bloody Kiwi in the row in front dived across 3 seats and proceeded to drop it.
He claimed it was anyone’s to catch, we disagreed. Fortunately we got the tickets from my friend who works for Sky sports cricket and he immediately sent us all the angles of this guy stealing my catch. We showed him and made him admit he was wrong. You could even pinpoint the moment in the replays that I called the guy a dick. It was amazing.
In retrospect he probably did me a favour - the game started at midday and this happened at about 8pm. I’d had about 15 Guinness by that point.
Big Bash is a 20 over tournament held in Australia in which each team plays 20 over each (i.e. 40 overs) which means 120 balls and 6 balls in one over.
Batsmen ask the umpire to tell them where their bat is in relation to the stumps. A common stance is to ask for the line where the bat is in front of middle stump. They then mark the position with their bat or their shoes, which is what you were asking about when Gayle was marking his guard.
He was marking his guard with his feet, the shoes have spikes on the bottom for grip so he uses the spikes to mark his standing guard on the pitch
Strike rate = runs per 100 balls
Run Rate = runs per over ( per 6 balls)
Strike rate is for an individual, whereas run rate is for the team.
In baseball, most people get injured off of foul ball because the stands are so close. In cricket, the boundaries are really big.
A cricket bat weighs somewhere around 3-4lbs, so with a fast bowler around 80-90mph it doesnt take much, Scratching on the crease is taking guard to protect the wickets
Do a video on M.S. Dhoni he is one of the best batsman and wicket keeper in the world
batting strike rate is the number of runs a batsman scores per 100 balls faced i.e. the batsman's rate (speed) of scoring. The stat presented is for their career in t20 cricket or maybe just in this tournament or just in this tournament this year. less than 100 is slow, more than 100 is fast. in t20 all batsmen will try to score at a rate above 100 because there are so few overs they can try and score off every ball without too much fear the innings will end with 10 batsmen out before the full 20 overs are bowled. This is especially true because t20 and 50 over pitches are prepared to be batter friendly with good bounce but little lateral movement off the seam or turn for spinners.
I was sitting in a match and Chris Lynn hit a six straight too me, I caught it with my left hand bare handed cause we don't got gloved like in baseball and I had a red hand for like 3 days.
Chris Gayle the greatest t20 batsman of all time.
Gayle is probably the biggest six hitter in the history of cricket
Chris Gayle is a beast. Smashes 6's like alistair cook could only dream about.
Gayle is from the West Indies. Strike rate of 149 means he scores 149 runs for every 100 balls he faces. His strike rate average. Best crowd catch: ua-cam.com/video/hUi71YtQIh0/v-deo.html
Yorker is the ball that is pitched at the toes of the batsman
Spectators getting hit in stands is extremely rare but it does happen... As a matter of fact A kid was hit off a six by chris gayle in India... He visited him in the hospital as soon as the match finished
Gayle is the most fun and chilled out sportsman.
I remember when Afghanistan (an underdog team) defeated west indies.... Chrish gayle went ahead and celebrated with Afghanistan
Sometimes you see decent catches in the crowd, but the crowd usually drop the ball. They don't get to keep it. The condition of the ball matters in cricket, so we expect the ball to be returned. If the ball is lost, the third umpire runs on to the field with a box of balls and they try to find one in a similar condition.
Hi Average American I'm Paul I'm a retired umpire just to let you know a few things you can see the size of the ball it weighs 156 grams it can travel over 100 mph stump to stump is around 19 yards the white lines are called the crease the line in front of the stumps is 4ft from the stumps the distance between middle stump and the outer stumps is 4 and half inches that's a little bit about playing surface
Gayle is called as universe boss for no reason.
Look at Brian Lara
Wait until you see AB de Villiers fastest hundred or any of his best ipl innings. Insane and almost impossible shots he pulls off. One of the best batsman to ever play the game and only retired last year.
Not better than gayle when gayle is in form no one comes near
You don't just need power to hit a six you also need a good timing a good connection with the ball and the ball will clear the Boundary effortlessly.watch a video called flat sixes in cricket
Chris gayle is so rich, he paid someone to arrange someone to pay for the bowler as well as this reviewer
Also one of the reasons Chris gayle doesn’t hit so hard is because since the ball is coming in with so much pace if he can find the right spot in the bat the pace will do the rest of the work and since his is swinging slower he has more time to find the right spot on the bat. Sort of an aggression vs precision thing
What he does with his feet is mark his guard. Batsmen mark their guard to determine where they want to position their bat when facing the bowler.
You gotta understand the bowlers are bowling very quickly. One of the best skills a batsman can have in T20 cricket is the ability to use the balls speed to ensure easier maximum hits. Very often when they hit 6s or big 4s its from placement + using the speed of the ball. Thats why Gayle makes it look so easy. Master of timing
Strike rate is the rate of runs per 100 balls so 150 strike rate means that he scores 150 runs per 100 balls
I am a cricketer and I'm from Pakistan My Favorite Batsman is Chris Gayle and A B deviler 😍😍😍😍
At the start of the second over he is making a mark in front if the middle stump so he knows where he’s standing in relation to the stumps
In cricket you don’t always need massive power. If you ‘time’ the shot perfectly, even a whip can go the distance. A push can fly to the boundary too Batting in cricket is more about technique than power. Of course Gayle has incredible power too, but timing is more important. Because the ball is already in the way up and with the fast bowler bowling there is already pace on the ball, properly timed shot just uses the pace on the ball and basically just redirects it. Just power with no timing will generally sky the ball for a catch.
Chris Gayle has got a really really heavy bat that's why he's able to hit it so large
The reasons it looks like he doesnt put much effory into it are
1. Hes a BIG GUY bout 6'3" 120kg so hes got alot of power
2. The ball is coming at him at bout 140kmph so he uses some of the balls speed
You should react to the biggest sixes of all time( they do go out of the stadium alot)
7:30 Batsmen usually mark the stump they have to take guard of. So they mark it with the spikes on the boot. Here, Gayle had taken guard of the leftmost stump called legstump for a left handed batsman.
Edit: Spectators are not allowed to keep the ball in cricket unlike baseball. They just throw it back to the field of play.
His bat actually is the most heaviest than any all of player in the cricket history
Firstly, good on you mate for learning about cricket and other sports/athletes around the world. You've got a lot more to learn but I can see you've come a long way already so keep it up. Cricket and AFL (Australian Football League) are Australia's most popular sports, even the women's leagues are finally getting more recognition/support. I'd like to see you react to women's cricket and AFL as they are equally skilled and tough.
11:34 A yorker is a ball bowled really full near his toes. It is bowled so that the batsman cant get the bat underneath the ball to hit it and get elevation. It is a really good ball to bowl when youre being smacked all over the place. Nearly impossible to hit and since you're bowling it that full, it has a good chance to hit the stumps and get you a wicket.
The thing he was doing with his foot was taking guard, this is when a batsman chooses which of the three stumps he wants to bat on or between, I said between because most batters bat between the middle and the leg stump
and no the crowed throws the ball back after every boundry
Chris Gayle is Universal BOSS in Cricket
Yeah, so Chris Gayle is from the West Indies, which is an international team made up of players from the Caribbean nations. This match was in the Big Bash, which is an Australian T20 competition where each team may have a few non-Australian players, of which Chris Gayle is one. He has always been a big hitter, and he is a big guy, so when he hits them, they go far. He's been around a long time and has had the most success in the T20 format, probably because he is rumoured to not like running, and prefers to just stand there and smack 'em out the park.
Spectators do get hit by balls going into the stands/grass area, but you are expected, as a spectator, to watch the ball and not turn your back on it when play is on. And some people do catch the ball when it goes into the stands; sometimes there are competitions where you can win a prize if you catch a ball cleanly with one hand whilst in the stands/on the grass spectators' area..
Watch Ian Botham saving the Ashes for England in 1981 - a cricketing legend and his finest hour - man who knew no fear in the days before wearing helmets
His average strike rate is over 140 in t20 which means every time he goes out to bat he averages 140ish runs/points
