I am a right handed swing bowler. My weird action helps me swing the ball in all conditions. Perdominantly bowling inswing i have been quite consistant over the 2007 season. I found my bowling stats online

I bowled 53.5 overs 10 maidens 154 runs 12 wicket. 2.86 being my economy 26.95 being by strike rate  and 12 .83  being my average. I took  15.79% of the wickets for my team.

Nothing to write home about mind you.  53.5 overs were bowled in 12 games

2007

53.5 10 154 12 3/10
0 2.86 26.95 12.83 15.79

I am a medium bowler
 
I am more of defensive bowler because I bowl line and length outside offstump and get wickets from fustration. Its quite enjoyable. Since I have the consistency of bowling the same line and length, I consider myself as first-class/test bowler. It's good to keep a mindset of a lot of time to fustrate batsmen.
 
I've recently had figures of 5-23 off 8, 4-2 off 3, 4-11 off 6, 3-6 off 8. I usually have an economy rate of 3. Don't really know my Strike rate, I think somewhere between 16-18. Average about 15.

I attempt to bowl legspin, but being a wicket keeper there are very few oppurtunities to bowl (3 overs this season) so my bowling is gradually getting worse and worse.

I'm a leg spinner. Containing is not my thing, taking wickets is!
 
I can rip the ball a long way, can bowl the toppy, slider, googly and flipper and I have a fast backspinner as well! It's just bowled like a fast bowler would bowl but with the seam running from left to right! It skids on wickedly that way!

^ loooooooooool
 
Im a right arm fast medium. I work up good pace at times, which can trouble most club batsmen and i naturally inswing the ball. I'd say i'm attacking, not necessarily with the fields set but just a wicket taker rather than a run container. I tend to bowl shortish spells 5/6 overs so i try to make an impact rather than just keep it tight. I can be wayward at times but thats the risk the captain takes LOL
 
Quite a few captains play we as just a batsmen as its my stronger suit. I suppose everyone's got to have a chance, so batting at no. 3/4 limits my bowling opportunities.

A 70mph or so medium pacer. Usual ball is an inswinger, but I can get it to go away as well. Always had a problem with accuracy, but I feel I've finally fixed that. Good enough to be a change bowler at the club level I have been playing at. Certainly better than several I've faced!
 
I used to be able to bowl a bit of leg spin but I seem to have lost the knack, and my off-spinners don't spin... I do however bowl quite a good cross-seam cutter which almost has a spinner action, only at about 65mph instead of 40...

I am a leg spinner. I would say that i am pretty reliable. But, at the level i play for mens (the umpires are batsmen waiting to come in or have already gotten out) i get a lot of appeals turned down :( - which results in a low number of wickets. As i am only 14 i get attacked by the batsman, and as i expect good things my head goes down. Also the bad fielders at my level results in hardly any wickets aswell. I come on 1st change and once i came on in the 5th over of a 40 over match! Smile
