What I like to do is start off bowling my natural line and shape which is swinging in to the right handed batsmen then just when they think they have the hang of it I will change line and bowl one that moves away off the pitch, and that creates uncertainty for the batsman from there on in

I don't know. I'm a part time bowler. I'm just a batsman who opens the bowling sometimes.

Not really. I have four different slower deliveries.

Sometimes rolling the ball off your index finger works as a slower ball. I've also gotten many wickets with it.

I sometimes like to ball wide so that the batsman pokes his bat out to cut and sometimes edges it. It is a new tactic I have found out recently, I saw many batsman in the international arena getting out caught behind for trying to hit a bowl wide off the stumps.

At every 12th ball or 13th ball, I always bowl a split finger yorker, or a slower ball that comes out the back of the hand. It always works, thats how I get wickets.

I bowl on Off Stump or just outside the line of Off Stump at a fixed speed, then last ball, I put in a fast yorker to destroy the base of their stumps. This usually works because the batsman gets used to the pace of the first five deliveries and might not be expecting a yorker at a faster speed.

I opened this thread to know other people's experience on getting wickets. You can tell us the most effective way to get wickets by bowling different line and lenghts.

My experience is to ball at different line and lenghts every ball and not ball at the same place, the batsmam is then uncertain and there is a chance to grab a wicket.
