I was at point for pretty much the entire innings apart from a few overs at cover when Skip was bowling.Do I spot some self criticism in here Jason or were you only temporarily at point ? :S
The adept practitioner of the noble art of nudging and nurdling works the ball into the spaces between the fielders rather than at them of course. One run partner.
They bowled to their (usually 7-2, even 8-1 to our more attack-minded bats) field really well. When the field is loaded that way you have to be disciplined in your bowling to a fifth stump line, we had practically nothing on the pads.
