A very slow ball with no spin is very easy to hit for six, especially if you&#x27;re delivering the ball with an unnatural movement so the batsman knows your intention from your arm movement.<p>Fast bowlers bowling towards the end of limited overs cricket and facing aggressive attacking shots actually do bowl occasional &quot;slower balls&quot; using their normal delivery stride to try to catch out opponents who tend to mistime shots when the ball arrives slightly later at ~70mph rather than the expected ~85mph. But you&#x27;re not going to catch them out with a gentle 30mph lob down the pitch, just like a decent tennis player will not have difficulty returning an attempted drop shot serve
