Bowler Quotes - III

2. It is a bowler's skill that gets him wickets in Tests. - Yuzvendra Chahal

3. One of the great joys of being a slip fielder who takes a catch is you are able to contribute to the bowler's success.

There are no easy catches in the slips. - Rahul Dravid

5. If you ask me, a batsman has very few opportunities as compared to a bowler. A bowler knows, if he gets hit for a six or a boundary, he has another delivery left to get back and take a wicket.

11. I am an attacking bowler, but I can change my plan and go however the team wants me to go. - Imran Tahir

12. I am not a big supporter of sledging or insults that are hurled at you. But I don't mind if a bowler glares or stares at the batsmen. During my career, I have faced these situations numerous times. - Inzamam-ul-Haq.
