Backyard Cricket [Action on the Ultimate Pitch]

[Ericthemasta]

you think u can make video of how do u tape the ball? or tell me wat kind of tape do u use?

[elpxpx]

@Ericthemasta we use standard electrical tape, there's no right way of doing it, just ensure half the ball is covered, and the tape is fairly tight.

How did u make the stumpcam. Nd is it very hard. Awesome pitch. Good old kiwi ingenuity

[elpxpx]

@woodworm4224 its a handycam behind a glass oven dish. True story.

WHY DO YOU NEED TO TAPE THE BALL?

[BurningSock]

For swing mate!!! This is commonly referred to as a tape ball. A common variant is to tape only half the tennis ball, to provide two different sides and make it easy to bowl with prodigious amounts of swing.

[combatarmsdabest]

i like how u did that 3rd umpire thing good work keep it up!

[RockingKT]

no kidding...its definitely one of the best backyard pitches i have seen.
