Well off the mark there BTB .

Cricket is a very physical sport and fitness is now at a premium . The injuries toll especially on bowlers has become more and more severe .

Fast bowling is like doing repeated sprinting, batting for any length of time involves a great deal of running between the wickets and fielding in the outfield can involve a great deal of running about .

It will come as no surprise that accordingly I bowled off spin that didn't turn much , tried to limit batting to boundaries and getting out and insisted on never fielding further away than cover point :lol:
