About this deal

The plan has a number of measurable aims: installing more non-turf pitches (NTPs), supporting a greater variety of formats, establishing mentoring and talent-identification programmes, and making coaching at the top level more representative. Ripkin Jr, Cal. "Offseason play, even with lighter ball, keeps kids' interest". The Baltimore Sun . Retrieved 24 April 2022.

Each street often has its own customised regulations, usually based on the topography of the playing area and the players' relationship with its residents. Owais Mughal, or chashmaatoo (Urdu colloquial for bespectacled), is an electrical engineer based in Singapore and the US. In the late '80s and early '90s, he was one of the stars of the circuit, as a left-arm fast bowler from Federal "B" Area, another tape-ball hotbed. Mughal shared a list of rules he wrote for the K-2 Bhai Tournament. It makes for a fun read, illustrative of the seriousness with which such matches were taken. Eighteen rules are specified. "Nitto brand electric tape will be used in the tournament"; any time a ball is hit directly inside a house, the batsman is out. The "Umpire's decision will be final" is a clear directive. In case a match doesn't end by sunset, "it will be replayed the next day at 4pm". Officials kept the scores which must have been difficult as controversy and counterclaim erupted constantly. It was all good-natured though the umpires did an incredible job keeping the peace as competitive juices flowed. Immensely popular, fiercely competitive, surreal and entertaining in equal measure, tape ball is played with a tennis ball wrapped in electrical tape, thus dispensing the need for wide open space and protective padding .

It was also loud and had an energy to it that probably sums up tape ball perfectly. Two games were happening at the same time; on each half of a 3G artificial football pitch. Karachi does not necessarily have a great record when it comes to supplying the national team with potent fast bowlers, but spend a day watching these games and you will wonder why. Usually they are slightly built, of medium height, in slippers, and almost always shabbily dressed; off a run-up of no more than ten steps they can deliver the street equivalent of a 90mph thunderbolt. God help you if there's a slit in the tape covering the ball, though that is unlikely because great care is taken to ensure that there isn't. Some players twist and wrap the tape around in such a way as to create a raised seam but that is generally not allowed. a b Naveed, Shoaib (23 January 2012). "I have intimidated others, never got intimidated myself: Wasim Akram". Dawn . Retrieved 22 April 2022.

Karachi's streets are full of stories of those who kept playing despite losing family members, friends and neighbours to violence, or to forced exile I really liked Bond’s action,” Naseem says. “I would try and bowl like him. When we’d go to the ground to play with tape ball, we’d think: ‘I need to bowl like Shoaib Akhtar now!’ Whatever we saw on TV and mobile, we would try and mimic that. I liked Bond’s action a lot and wanted to copy that.”parking lots, grounds and fields in almost every city, town and village. Perhaps the same folks who grew up with it The Tape Toss - To decide who bats first, you can use the tape. You will have up or down as the two choices - logo or writing inside the tape roll up or down when it lands will decide the winner of the toss! A veteran and veritable legend of Lahore's Samanabad neighbourhood, who once hit 23 sixes in an innings of 25 balls, the now retired Kaliya cuts a charismatic figure, enjoying widespread love and respect from players and fans . What does the future hold?

Della Penna, Peter. "How USA's Ali Khan got to the IPL (with a little help from Dwayne Bravo)". ESPN cricinfo . Retrieved 24 April 2022. First impressions were overwhelming – in a good way. Not least the number of people there, over a hundred, which I’m not used to because of Covid and needed a moment to take in. Naseem owned the big stage that day, serving another reminder of his pressure-soaking prowess. He may not need to, but he intends to chip in with the bat as much as he can. Anything that gets the team to the finishing line.Tape ball tourney set for Saturday on Durban Park Tarmac". Kaieteur News Online . Retrieved 24 April 2022. The Pitch - one of the greatest rules of the game, and a rule that makes each game unique is the pitch length. The pitch length is measured out at between 20-22 steps - meaning the pitch will not necessarily be the same length each match! It's always challenging, because in a car park there are cars as well, pedestrians walking - so it's not safe," admits Younis. "But we still play, because we know it's a tennis ball. If we hit someone, they're not going to get hurt. But it can be an issue." The Tape - the tape is similar to electrical tape (electrical tape can be used) but usually thinner and has quite good anti scuff properties. Usually one player from each team will be responsible for the ball taping - which can be a bit of an art form for some! The competition was so strong and interest so high that a street match between teams from Nazimabad would attract 200 to 300 spectators
