  1. Bowling a yorker

    A yorker is usually delivered very late in the action with the hand almost pointing directly vertical. The aim is both to get more pace and to deliver it later so as to deceive the batsman in flight. It is usually recommended to deliver the ball with some inswing but an away-swinging yorker aimed at the pads can be just as effective. Because yorkers are quite difficult to bowl, the key to bowling them well is to practise the delivery time and time again.


  2. In cricket, a yorker is a delivery where the cricket ball bounces on the cricket pitch on or near the batsman's popping crease. Since a batsman in a normal stance has his feet on the popping crease, this means the ball is bouncing very near his feet, which makes the ball difficult to hit with the bat. This is usually the 'ideal' place for a bowler to bowl, yet, because this is close to the batsmen, many bowlers mistime the release of the ball and bowl a full toss instead.

  3. Get the full grip of the ball and throw it little harder and slightly later.

  4. Try and release the ball slightly later than usual but not too late otherwise it will become a full-toss and aim for the batsman's feet.

    This way there will be lots of wickets tumbling you way!!!

  5. Watch Brett, Shoaib, Maliga, Tanveer bowl yorkers. According to Tanveer you have to practice a lot to be to bowl yorker. Practice, practice and more practice will teach you the adjustment between a full-toss and yorker.

  6. You can read the theory but it really comes down to practice, practice and more practice.  You need to know exactly what the feeling is when you deliver a yorker.  This is what is called "muscle memory".  If you have it then the delivery of the yorker will not need conscious mind control to produce it.

  7. Practise is the only way!!

  8. always stick to good lenght area while bowling all you life. Take it easy, u will get that
