Copy the above and paste into your browser. I like what he says about the bowlers being able to set their field when they're bowling. Having never played a competitive game I've got no idea about how much time is given over to discussing field placings when you're given the nod to bowl, is there such a thing as wasting time in cricket if you're deemed as taking too long to make decisions about bowling?

  1. It depends what sort of game you are playing. Generally the idea is to get on with it without too much undue hesitancy. You should have a fairly reasonable idea where your fielders are going to be anyway.
