I bat and bowl right-handed. But I write and play pool left-handed. However, I play tennis, golf etc right-handed. My theory is that my left hand is stronger but my right arm is stronger :?

Mark Taylor plays golf right handed but bats left handed.

In golf, Richard Hadlee Drives Left handed and putts Right handed.

I am completely left handed; Writing, Batting, Tennis, Peeling spuds, Pool, Except that i Bowl and throw a ball right handed. Yet I throw a dart left handed.

I prefer watching left handed batsman, as they usually play more fluent strokes. Wheras I prefer to watch Right handed bowlers as I reakon that left arm bowlers look Awkward...Eg, Mike Whitney, Bruce Reid, Mullaly, Vetorri. IMO they look awkward.

I wouldn't read to much into it. The best batsman was don bradman [right handed], the best spin bowler is shane warne [right handed], the best pace bowlers of all time, mcgrath, lillee, ambrose [right handed] the best football player is andrew johns [right handed], the best golfer of all time tiger woods [right handed]. The list goes on.

Yeah but the arguement is how much BETTER they would have been if they were left handed.;-):lol::lol:

Interesting that Graham Pollock was left handed. If not for apartheid, would he have ever been as great a bat as Bradman?

no - but I think he's rightly regarded as the greatest lef-hander ever... cue Tommy Smith rushing in to say it's not so and Lara has that mantle....

Haha, f*ck me! I wasn't expecting that! I thought Tommy and JJ had a happy banter relationship. Apparently that doesn't extend to taking about Brian Charles....

Speaking of Sir Brian Charles, he just hit 61 and 122 in vain against Pakistan. Same story as usual, he gets out and the rest follow. Such a wasted talent nowadays, he should seek English citizenship.
