	The Biomechanics of Illegal Bowling Actions in Cricket
		Tony Lock (England) had been called for throwing in first-class cricket, and it was reported that he had to modify his action several times to satisfy the umpires.
		This suggests that either (i) the bowlers in the throwing group were not generally throwing and the visual effect of jerkiness was an illusion, or that (ii) a throwing-type action is not solely determined by elbow extension angle.
		This definition shall not debar a bowler from the use of the wrist in the delivery swing.

		Fallout - Slang for hitting a scoring dart while missing the number you were throwing at (like hitting the 16 in Cricket when you were really aiming at the 19)
		The people throwing the highest and lowest scores are partners, the next to highest and next to lowest are partners and so on.
		Both darts must score and that score is calculated.

	Cricket calculation
		Throwing at the triple yeilds a higher score than throwing at the more reliable large part of the number.
		Given a dart thrower who can usually hit within the triple ring, the following is a contour plot of average throw for different aim points on the board.
		Common pieces of advice I've heard are, "Throw at the large part of the number," and "If two numbers are open next to each other, throw between them." So, I first considered the possibility that the 18 was closed and the 20 was open.

	Cricket bat care advice
		Cricket bats were not designed to fly and throwing your bat is one of the silliest things you can do to it.
		A cricket bat is designed to hit a ball in its lower middle section, between 10 to 30 cms (4 to 12 inches) from the bottom, so even though you should eventually concentrate on this region you also need to knock the entire blade in as well.
		By knocking your cricket bat in we are trying to harden and knit the fibrous textures of the face of your bat before we expose it to a new cricket ball being bowled at 90 mph.

		I had come into cricket at a young age, and was one of the first guys to be picked in the side, so it was a bit of shock when I was left out of the side for the first time.
		Cricket would be a very boring game without something being said here and there.
