I love to open the innings, if i get a chance, and stay at the wichet till last man is down. But this rarely happens, at least for me.

I too love to open the innings like I mentioned before!!! Its so cool coming out of the dressing room and marching to the pitch with ppeople cheering!!! Unless I fail, I normally impress my home crowd....I used to bat right, but since I tried left, I've become another Saeed Anwar or Salman Butt, never got out on anything lower than 33. Its a record.....

That's impressive. I can bat under pressure. I am a slogger but I am a consistent slogger.

Its kinda hard 2 be a consistent slogger man if u can go out dere and smash da ball every inings then ur really good.

I bat number 5 and 6 cause i tend to slog the ball around da ground for bout 2 overs and make bout 20 runs then get out. dis is probably y i bat quite low

Go The Aussie team

I like to anchor as well. I can play well under pressure and can play pretty fast.

I think it's all about where you feel comfortable, and how many runs you make in that position. I love opening the batting, I average 47.32 batting at number 2, at number 3, I average around about 42.12. So, I'm not kind of sure where I like to bat. I can bat under pressure sometimes. I had to bat at number 7 one time, our team was 7-24 at one stage! I made 52 at number 7, and ressurected the innings. My average is 57.65. It dropped from 68 because I had to bat at 4 last Saturday, and I got out for 18.

Yea, it's pretty frustating for a bowler if he can't get you out with anything or even intimidate you.
