Here is a video explaining the importance of magic eye and why left-handers are suspect to right- arm bowlers bowling round the wicket.
So far 22 Test matches have been played at end of of 1st Test (Pak v SL)Oct (18-22)2011.
There have been 124 “L B W” dismissals for bowlers, which constitutes 17.61% of total wickets(704 wickets). It’s the second most regular dismissals after wicket-keeper’s catch(20.31%)
Yet, this is the most sought out & satisfying dismissals for every bowler, as it defines/epitomize his accuracy!.
Out of 124 L B W victims, 70(56.45%) were dismissed for low scores(10 or less score), & 50(40.32%) were left-handers.
Here is a absolute look at L B W dismissals in Test matches played in 2011.
A – List of L B W dismissals for right hand & left hand batsmen by various bowlers.
| Type of Bowlers | Left hand batsman | Right hand batsman | Total |
| Right arm pace | 20 | 40 | 60 |
| Off spinners | 17 | 12 | 29 |
| Left arm pace | 11 | 1 | 12 |

Contribution and value of a left hander.

As of now, teams are losing chasing lower scores on regular basis, and at same time targets are not getting bigger.
Twenty20 can be a torch bearer for both Test matches and ODI matches, nevertheless currently its favoring bowlers more than batsmen, which means we are forced to look at basic skills very minutely.
At this moment, "boundary riders" are determining factor in winning a T20 game, and so far teams that have scored more boundaries have won maximum games, and only few times we witness otherwise.
– In, 2010WC only once we witnessed a team winning a game with less boundaries to their credit, as the losing side had a difference of “1boundary” to their credit.
Cricket has been designed in a such a way that it allows "3different skills"not only to excel individually, & fulfill ones potential, but also determine game’s outcome, yet the game’s length decides individual brilliance, and sometimes these skills are not completely fulfilled when it favors “1” particular skill heavily.
Currently cricket is played in 3different formats, and they are length-based, & time-based, each determined by number of overs and days to be played with.Their basic function remains same.
Twenty20, is the latest to be recognized by cricket’s international body where each team play 20overs.
This format gives more opportunity to individual brilliance, more than any other format, hence you would see only few brilliant performances of each skill, and they are not displayed all the time.
So far in all T20I there have been 205fifties scored by batsmen, with opening pair contributing 53.17%, and 8.59 % for players who bat below V.
T20 is 120 balls, and if one has to score substantial runs (25 + or 50+) then they need to spend some time in middle to score these runs, and openers have the best opportunity to do so, and same is the case for players who bat in middle order, yet win factor are much less, as its effectiveness is reduced compared to bowler’s 4wkt haul.
If we have to equate bowlers 4wkt haul to batsman fifties, than their success rate is far greater, because currently batsmen scoring fifties rewards 62% win, and bowler’s picking 4wkt haul rewards 74.50% win for teams!.
Tactical Method for Batsmen to excel:
With 120balls per inn, it is mandatory for an opener to play a ghost innings, ie be there till end, yet not get noticed till half way.
Dilshan’s century against Australia in 1st T20 game in SL, is an ideal example for openers to pace their innings, as he batted till the end, yet half way through the innings his score was 31(25balls) & SL were 76/2 (10overs). Then from 15overs he attacked the bowling, as Lankans managed to score 80runs in last 5overs!.
Although its not necessary that teams can score so many runs in last 5overs regularly, but idea is to have your opener or a No3 to bat through out the innings, with strike rate of 100+ at half way mark, yet have less balls faced, then with wickets in hand it would much easier to attack in last 7/5overs.
| Batting order | Fifties contibution(%) | Success rate(%) |
| Openers | 53.17% | 64.22% |
| Bat No.3 | 18.05% | 19.27% |
| Bat No.4 | 16.10% | 20.18% |
| Bat No.5 | 7.32% | 7.34% |
| Bat No.6 | 3.90% | 5.50% |
| Bat No.7 | 1.46% | 0.92% |
Tactical method for Bowlers to excel:
So far inT20I, 51x 4wkt haul have been taken by bowlers, and in that only 5of them conceded more than 7Runs/Over!..
Yet, unlike opening batsmen, opening bowlers are less successful in picking 4wicket haul, as that credit goes to 3rd change bowlers, & also those who bowl beyond them, and they are more successful in picking 4wkts haul than opening bowlers, which actually is surprise knowing that white ball swings more than the red ball, but here the reason is completely different.
It seems most of the time teams are not using their strike bowlers to open the bowling, they are used as 2nd change, or 3rd change .
All this suggest that picking 4wkt haul with new ball is not very productive for teams, as bowlers are more successful picking them in middle or at end of an innings.
Not surprisingly Pakistan have the maximum 4wkt haul (10/51 =19.60%)to their credit, and interestingly shared equally by pace and spin.
Pakistan tactics to use their strike bowler in middle and end overs have paid good dividends, adding to this, their spinners have done excellent job aided by close in field tactics for new batsmen in middle overs. Pakistan almost every time use 5specialist bowlers, which does makes sense, as in 120balls/inn its bowlers who become more effective in picking wickets, then new-batsmen scoring boundaries at end of innings.
| Bowling Position | 4wkt haul(%) | Success rate(%) |
| Opening pair | 25.49% | 26.38% |
| 1st change | 23.53% | 21.05% |
| 2nd Change | 15.69% | 21.05% |
| 3rd change | 25.49% | 31.58% |
| Beyond | 9.80% |
10.53% |
| Year | Mts | 1st-bat Win(%) | 170(1st bat) frequency | 170+ success rate |
| 2005 | 3 | 66.67% | 66.67% | 100.00% |
| 2006 | 9 | 44.44% | 22.22% | 100.00% |
| 2007 | 38 | 42.14% | 31.58% | 91.67% |
| 2008 | 29 | 34.48% | 17.24% | 100.00% |
| 2009 | 48 | 56.25% | 31.25% | 86.67% |
| 2010 | 68 | 45.59% | 22.06% | 80.00% |
| 2011 | 8 | 75.00% | 12.50% | 100.00% |
| Total | 203 | 47.29% | 25.61% | 88.46% |
One is certain that all this measurement will change once teams play more games, both home and away.
Then these established statistics would be completely different than the current one processed.
It is interesting and shocking to know, that so far England, NZ, West Indies, South Africa & Zimbabwe have not yet played a T20I game in India, in fact only few of these teams played in sub continent, (6 in UAE , 2 in SL, 1 in Bangladesh), but not a single game in India!!.

What is a new ball mantra?. To compel batsman play every delivery!.
An opening batsman is responsible for building team’s platform, and at the start of an innings he is not aware how the pitch will behave, and how much the ball will swing. Adding to this, he is unaware of what tactics fielding side will employ, and how their opening bowlers will execute them.
Hence most opening batsmen will take some time to settle down. The time period is marginal, depending on different formats of game, adding pitch condition, and also character of a player.
So it becomes important for an opening bowler to make the best use of new ball, and make him play each delivery. If things are not going in his favor, and has tried all his tricks, he still needs to continue doing what he is doing, because even though a batsman will look comfortable, nevertheless forced to solve one problem after another at the start of an innings, which reduces the success rate of scoring runs, and increases possibility of a wicket.

This season in English County, every 2nd game teams manage to score 400!.
18 Teams play 138 games in Two Division in English County.
This season, at the end of 88 games, 54 times teams manage to go past the 400 score, which is about every second game a total of 400 is scored by a Team.
An excellent opportunity for Indian Team!!
…….neverthless 22 times teams were forced to follow-on, which works up to 25%, not a good sign for Indians.
Major Partnership density is in middle order (56 %)
Earlier in July, game between Nottinghamshire v Somerset could be a confidence factor for India!.

India were let down by their batsmen!
Lord’s Batting Partnerships for India
Lord’s Batting Partnerships for England
India’s Batting partnership since 2004
(Consistent at top, neverthless tapers towards the end)
What is a job of a top order batsman when he is batting with lower order/tail?.
1- If they are batting first, then look to score as many runs as possible with a better strike rate.
2- If they are replying a 1st Inning score, then make sure they come as close as possible(after avoiding follow on) to that score, by building partnerships with tail, and have a strike rate at which his partner(lower/tail) is comfortable with (some tail-enders like to be scoreless and stick around as long as they can, some like to hit boundaries every second ball).
Neverthless Rahul Dravid’s innings had value in terms of personal landmark, and averting follow on, but could he along with lower order posted substantial partnerships, and come much closer to England’s 1st inn score ?.
Lately Dravid has been involved with lower order partnerships, yet India couldn’t reach 400 or even 300, so is it possible for him to change his batting style, and bat faster ?
If that happens, then partnerships can be build.
Here one is not suggesting 50 or 100 runs, but partnerships of 30s,/40s can be substantial runs for teams.
India’s current line-up is blessed with excellent lower order strikers, and they have enough experience batting with top batsmen.
Here one feels Dravid should change his batting style, and once that happens, the fielding side will become defensive, and instead of attacking to pick wickets, they would try and stop runs, which will allow Dravid to build partnerships with lower order, and India can score decent total consistently.
Here is a look at Dravid’s involvement in partnerships with lower order batsmen in Test cricket.
Rahul Dravid’s Partnerships with lower order batsmen(All Tests)
| Stand | Inns | Runs | 50+ | 100+ | Avg |
| 6th Wkt | 42 | 1855 | 12 | 3 | 46.38 |
| 7th Wkt | 29 | 638 | 3 | 0 | 22.79 |
| 8th Wkt | 20 | 578 | 1 | 2 | 30.42 |
| 9th Wkt | 15 | 371 | 4 | 24.73 | |
| 10th Wkt | 8 | 37 | 4.63 |
Now, if one has to sum up all these partnerships (add all lower order partnerships), then Dravid’s involvement with tail fetched India @23 Runs/Wkt.
… If one has to compare this analysis with Ricky Ponting, his contemporary Test No .3 batsman, then his involvement with tail has fetched Australia 42 Runs/Wkt.
Ricky Ponting’s Partnerships with lower order batsmen (Batting Position No.3,since 2001)
| Stand | Inns | Runs | 50+ | 100+ | Avg |
| 6th Wkt | 34 | 1354 | 9 | 2 | 43.68 |
| 7th Wkt | 22 | 585 | 2 | 1 | 29.25 |
| 8th Wkt | 14 | 636 | 5 | 1 | 48.92 |
| 9th Wkt | 8 | 60 | 7.50 | ||
| 10th Wkt | 5 | 51 | 10.20 |
They both have different batting style, and there is nothing much in terms of average (unless one can measure strike rate of each partnerships) neverthless Dravid can take a leaf from this Aussie.
