if you compare steyn and shane bond delivery motion, bond seems to use his entire back and hips like a 'bow' to develop the extra spring and power for delivery, while steyn is steadier and does not do that. this kind of minor diffs might explain why some are more prone to back injury and some not so - for instance walsh, marshall and ambrose iirc did not suffer serious injury in their careers and neither did kapil dev or glen mcgrath (its another matter that Munna tried to copy mcgrath's motion (still resembles) and got injured, after which he cut down his pace by 10kmph) . dont think a coach can 'teach' it to a bowler, some are just lucky or canny enough to fall into a motion that is sustainable long term and delivers results.

I was about to point that out. That and his landing looks dangerous for the ankles. Hakims here are the best judges to pass opinion on that.

Good to see so many BDs standing up against the Pakis...i was under the impression that ~80% of the people there are pro-Paki.

everytime TSP plays in Mohali, IAF makes it a point to break the sound barrier over the stadium

I was hoping for a repeat, but MMS may have too sensitive a ear to allow this to happen.

Mr.Integrity resigns as captain

First Tait retires from ODIs, now Ponting as skipper. Nice legacy developing from the India-Aus rivalry :)

glad to know there are BD citizens who remember and take pride in their own nation, history and culture...it can only be good for us if more and more such people rise to power instead of closet razakars like khaleda zia.

WTF does the media give such cheap publicity.......

Pakiis need as per Imran Khan's advice be given sleeping pills before the Match without them knowing, best mixed in thier rehydrading drinks so they can sleep in the match..... if found out we were following Imran Khan advice onlee. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Circinfo has turned into a Paki outfit. Every single pre-match writeup parrots the Paki viewpoint, detailing the farts by Gul and Misbah. Not a single one about India.

But in a way I guess that's good. :twisted:
