Action of Shoib Akhtar
⊆ 08:35 by CommuniKationDifference is sharp movement of the wicket and consistently hitting the spot just outside the off stump where batsman has to play. Just movement of few centimeters away can get edge to the slips of keeper. It matters %age of deliveries land at the spot where batsman has to play and how consistently bowler can move ball both ways from good length spot.
1/2 of the matches Shoib is injured. Some times he gets injured during the match that is big handicap for team with one player less. Then he can bowl at top speed for very short spells. Waseem Akram with lesser speed and more accurcay / control on the ball got much better results than Shoaib Akhtar.
There is lots of physics involved in cricket as well as in other games, it is very difficult to beat teams like Australia which gets support from experts. Have you ever heard of infrared thermal imaging? It can reveal hidden spots on the wicket invisible to nacket eye.
Cricket is now high teck game.
