A full ball is far easier to hit than a swinging or spinning ball, despite the superior pace of a full ball. There is no room for subtlety in baseball. A spinner of the calibre of Shane Warne can never find a place in Baseball, simply because he relies on guile and variations in pace below the 60 mph mark. Adam Gilchrist of Australia and Sanath Jayasuriya of Srilanka will be smacking their lips anticipating full pitches without having to bother countering the swing or spin!!

Cricket differs far more han basegball than I had previously thought... I'd like to she a full match sometime. But from watching several of these instructional videos I have gathered that baseball is far superior. Having baserunners makes more sense to me,(as well as having nine, three out innings) plus with major leaguers pitching at 100+mph and batters using a round bat it seems as if baseball is a bit more difficult.

The fielders change ends.. Why do you always see the field scatter after every over? They are swapping sides :O It's not the batsmen changing ends..

Well that's just a matter of opinion(which is never wrong), I personally prefer faster bowlers being 1 myself.

exactly, look at simon jones, he runs in from 10 paces and bowls 95mph, brett lee runs in from a million miles away and bowls 2mph quicker, work out y lee just put more emphasis into his action

mate, if you took time to read my whole comment you would realise that you're just repeating what im saying. i did not say that the pace of the delivery relies on the length of your run up alone.

It could be a bot misleading to say that the longer you run the faster you bowl, most people just run longer so they can get in rhythm prior to bowling as well as gain momentum.

I think you mean to ask if the batsmen switch ends at the end of the over. If so, then the answer is no, the next bowler bowls from the opposite end and the batsmen stay at their ends. Playing in streets or indoors, its usually more practically for batsmen to switch ends instead of the fielding team changing their whole field setting. Hope that made sense.
