Just a widish ball aimed at drawing the batsmen into a stroke.

It was mentioned during the SA vs. WI match, a term i'd never heard before.

The south african commentaters are different.

They also say one a lot.

One must ask oneself what one does when one gets oneself in this kind of situation- Darryl Cullinan.

Must have been what Brad Williams was trying to do in the first innings... only the batsmen couldn't reach.

Then again, Patrick Patterson and Chris Matthews made careers out of it.

Didnt Ganguly try and play a carrot ball but was completely out of his league and almost went arse up?

Carrot ball. Classic.

I've always been pretty handy with the potato ball myself.
