    Aussie cricket team are feeling very ashamed right now ( or maybe just P!/!'d that they were caught?)

    Okay, I saw the video and yup, I am definitely confused or one team is way over confident. There's a pitcher or bowler I am assuming. Then there is a guy with the bat. So far so good. But, there's no one waiting in the field for the batter to hit the ball, moreover, they're all standing behind the batter! Such confidence in the bowler / pitcher is overwhelming!

    ITs a what they call a Fast Bowler...they wait for the batsman to "edge" the ball so it spins off his bat and they catch it.

    The ball is delivered at about 90 miles an hour if the bats man does not hit the ball in the centre of his bat the ball tends to spin off.
