Does she intentionally bat the ball side to side? Wouldn’t it be bad to hit it straight out?

I thought the same thing when I looked at the picture. But I didn't wanna ask.

Best news all dat!!!

I was wondering the same thing.

A cricket batter stands pretty much in the middle of an oval field. Maybe 50 mtrs/yds available to score from in every direction. A touch more straight ahead, a bit less behind.
Different players have different favoured shots. Olivia is strong "square" (at right angles to the bowled/pitched delivery) on both sides, whereas Cody prefers to hit the ball very hard back the direction it came from ("straight ") more like you baseball watchers would be accustomed to. But a cricket shot/hit is more often played with a vertical bat as opposed to the horizontal baseball one.
The shot Olivia is practicing in the pic is called a "pull". You pull the ball from ahead of you to your leg side somewhat at right angles.
That's probably enough for Joedirt...

Its easier to just swing for the seats and trot around the bases.

If it makes the seats off the bat there isn't any need to run in cricket.

Baseball either, but do they bat flip?

Good morning goons. I'm here.

I went with a different route since I hadn't checked this thread, I checked availability of common parts (good enough) and asked shops. The most informative place, in between bs-ing, told me they do not recommend newer Fords because of all the plastic chit in them. But, if it made it to 193k it isn't one that was built Friday night. I'm thinking I'll look at it, if something's funky I'll leave it be, if it seems good I'll get it and run it until I've rebuilt the Land Cruiser suspension and then consider flipping it.


Who's tweedle twat in the red shirt?

I had to go back and look, didn't know anyone was in the pic.
That's Ram..yeah, it's short for something or another I think.
The only interaction I have with him is when he can't figure out how to not let the vehicle he's cleaning hang out into the middle of the shop making it a bìtch for me to get on/off my hoists. He's not very bright.

Rainin down here on the coast.
A slight smell of fried trout in the kitchen from last night but bang they were good.

I read the article, but it doesn't explain the wickets. Does the batsmen defend the wickets from the bowler?

Good morning men. You too Dally.

Good morning men. Raining here and a high of 47. Going build a new reloading bench today. As well as a shooting bench for my 300yd firing point. Stay safe ay!

Whatcha got for a reloader, Larry?
My RCBS rock chucker has been sitting dormant for a bit over a year now. Just haven't been out burning much ammo lately.

Same. Actually been over 2 years now since we moved, and even though I built a nice bench for my setup, I haven’t used it. I love my RCBS single stage for rifle cartridges. I’ve thought about getting a progressive for pistol, but I don’t shoot enough to warrant it.

Good morning fellas. Oldest boy has 2 wrestling tournaments today - one this morning and another that starts around 5 in another town this evening. I’m heading to the landing to buck some logs this morning and maybe pull a few more trees. Looking forward to attending the evening tourney.
