April 24, 2008

"I have worked hard on my swing bowling," Sidebottom said. "I think swing bowling in general is coming back into cricket.
"There was an era when there was swing bowling and then it went to 90 miles [140 kms] an hour. I think swing bowling has come back into it. I have always worked on that side of my game because balls are swinging in general."
