A few days ago I asked a question about bowlers run ups in cricket, let me make it clearer about the question I was asking.
In the 70s especially, i used to watch fast bowlers especially in test cricket take huge runups to bowl, Bob Willis, Geoff Thompson,Dennis Lilly to name a few.They would take allmost half of length of the ground ! But now the 'equivelent' fast bowlers of todays game eg Freddy Flintoff, Bret Lee take a run up of no more than half that.Is it because that fast bowling in cricket has evolved in teqnique? Or is it rules ?Or to do with stamina or anything else?
