The bowling of a ghost

In the artical about the History of Amateur Cricket, in the section about Gentlemen v Players you mention Alfred J Lowth. I would be interested to know the source of the information that a) he had the nick-name 'Dandy', and b) that he had to give up Cricket on account of failing eyesight. Thanks in anticipation ANTLowth (talk) 12:52, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

A general question

Please forgive my ignorance of cricket, but would you explain three things.

• What is a googly and how many ways can a batsman be out?
• What is a yorker?
