Chapter 42: New Skill

[Ding!!]

[Congrats Host on getting an IPL Contract]

[You will be gifted with one of the 3 skills here]

Saying so, It displayed 3 skills, which made my jaw drop.

These are the most powerful skills the system has ever given me.

[Host can only use one of the three skills listed]

[1) Thunderbolt : Increases your bowling speed by 30%, And It's a buff kind of skill and cooling time is 5 min.

2)Swing ball: Similar to Curveball. Curveball is typically associated with baseball pitching, where the ball is thrown with a spinning motion to create a curve or break in its trajectory. In the context of fast bowling in cricket, a similar skill could be referred to as "Swerve." Can inswing the ball at 0.7 - 2 degrees and can outswing the ball at 1.5- 3 degrees. Cool down time is 10 min.

A toe-crushing yorker is a delivery in cricket that is aimed at the batsman's toes or the base of the stumps. It is one of the most lethal and effective deliveries in the game, often used by fast bowlers to target the batsman's footwork and disrupt their shot-making.

When executed perfectly, a toe-crushing yorker is delivered at a full length, just short of a full toss, making it difficult for the batsman to get underneath the ball and play an attacking shot. The ball lands on or around the popping crease, denying the batsman any room to free their arms and forcing them to dig it out with their bat.

A well-executed toe-crushing yorker requires a combination of skill, control, and a good understanding of the batsman's weaknesses. The bowler needs to have a quick arm action, generate pace, and maintain accuracy to consistently hit the right length. It also requires precise timing and release point, as any error in length or line can turn the delivery into a full toss or a half-volley, allowing the batsman to score runs. """

3)Toe Crusher - Can execute Toe crushing yorker. Cooldown time - 2min

I was in deep thought The first two skills I can use in Test format, but Not in the shortest format, but Thinking IPL around the corner I'd just choose Toe Crusher. But Before choosing I need to clarify some doubts with the system.

"System! Would these skills available in future?"

[Replying to the Host]

[yes Host, These would be available in the store in future as you level up]

[Mind you Host, No matter what Skill you choose they start from Level 0, and you need to work Hard to Level up and some tasks related to the specified Skill would be shown, If you complete them then You can level up Faster]

"Ok System I would be taking the Toe Crushing Skill"
