Great shot Danny, Not the cricket shot but the pic He appears to be using the Adam Gilcrist high handed grip on the bat. His technique needs a little work, yours Danny is excellent.

The ball has been bowled with spin, most probably.

Cheers guys! It was definately a good exercise for action shots, and just looking back through them, I only took 9 and 2 were due to a heavy trigger finger!
Anticipation and timing are definately the order of the day with action shots I have found, so I won't be too upset if the next Pentax body only does 4FPS!
This was the 1st attempt, just missed it by a fraction of a second!
And a couple of others

Ah I see:, its just that when I played cricket at school all those years ago the momentum of the ball would drive straight through the wickets knocking them aside, cant remember a ball ever bouncing back off it, unless they were drawn in chalk on a wall somewhereThe ball has bounced back after hitting the stumps
But then again my knowledge of cricket would fill a postage stamp
