The pitchers weapon for cricketball strikeout AWESOMENESS is known as the leatherskin. The traditional red leatherskin ball used in Testing matchups comes in two forms; The British Nuke is the hardest and most destructive ball! Its super shiny shell and super skinny stitching makes it a real threat to the decision timbers and many a Batman fears its launch from the slingshotters; Ozzy’s Cookie-burra is a tasty alternative used in the Southern States. Its soft doughy crust allows it to last until the 5th phase final quarter and ensures that reverse curveball pitches can be utilized in the harsh dessert conditions. Once a sidewinder pitcher like Graeme Swan gets his beak into it the Batmans are bamboozled into many an illegal pad deflect and HOWDYZATT play!
Limited pitch shootout cricketball utilizes the more familiar, to us Yankee Doodles, White leatherskin! The baseball-style ball allows Batmans to see in the dark, and because of this AWESOME technology many a Dark Knight has risen! It also ensures cricketeers can play ball 24 hours a day & 7 days a week… We don’t like cricketball we LOVIN’ IT!
Cricketball scientists have conducted experimentation using pink leatherskins in National franchise matchups with cricketettes and in college playoffs with the sports freshman future superstars, but these have proved inconclusive in improving ball visibility and swing scores! In my opinion the answer is already there for us ballers… “The future is bright and the future is ORANGE”!
Roster draftees have been known to illegally modify the leatherskin on the field, without sweater collector detection. Such instances have been from simple manual stitching leverage to the more complex use of UV protection serum to produce variation of leatherskin movement! Hey buddies… That’s just not cricketball!
One last tip from your cousin across the pond, especially for you budding pitchers; If you look after your balls they will look after you!
