my tailratings, SubhanAllah these days is close to 4.5k...i am dead serious!!

reverse order: is a decent strategy in ONLY sticky pitch against a fierce oppoent. and that too should be done in he following way:

1-4 batsmen: 2 tail batsmen two top order batsmen
5-8 batsmen: 1 tail batsmen, 1 middle order batsmen and play your two top order batsmen
9-11: middle order only

ok normally your top order is your top four...middle order is the next two +allrounder +best bow/bat

and tail order is your bowlers...trust me: try this out ...i havn't tried it..but Alhamdulillah the idea just came to my mind and it may work out...note: on sticky ONLY!!!

put your tails on defensive...

i would try some thing like this:

1. your normal #10
2. #2
3. #11
4. #4
5.#9
6. #1
7.#7
8.#3
9. #5
10. #6
11.#8

tell me what do yous think? a bad idea? or not??? again, i have never tried this, this is just theory...
