In cricket, X music is a term for a bowling strategy where
bouncers are aimed at the batsman's throat.
Rising rapidly off the pitch, the ball is difficult to play unless the
batsman has quick footwork. If fended rather than avoided, it
may yield a ballooned return catch to the bowler or to close-in
fielders.
This is a difficult ball to bowl, since a few inches on either side
would present the batsman with a short ball that can be easily
put away on either side of the pitch.
It is also the finishing move of Shawn Michaels who calls it
“Sweet X Music”.
X please?

Identify X.
X was born on 31st May, 1946 in Montego Bay, Jamaica. He was the
part of the game in 128 Test matches & also in 181 One Day
Internationals. X, before being involved in cricket, was a football player,
a high school mathematics teacher and a sports coach. He was also
seen on the field in a Football World Cup Qualifier Match. He also
played as a goalkeeper in Jamaican parish leagues in the 1960s.
Nicknamed ‘Slow Death’, X was awarded the Order of Jamaica,
Commander Class, for “outstanding services in the field of sports”.

“He took the lift whereas I took the staircase” said X
X reached the 1000 run milestone in test cricket in only 14 innings
which is still the national record of least number of innings to reach
1000 runs in Tests. In his short batting career that lasted only 21
innings, X averaged 54.20. X is the first person of his country to
score two Test double-centuries in a row against two different
opponents.
X’s poor shot selection, inability to change or develop his style,
coupled with the lack of mental focus required to Test cricket, led
to his downfall.
Id X.

__________ ___ ____________(8,2,11) is a phrase used to describe an area
on the cricket pitch: A narrow line on and just outside a batsman's off stump.
It was coined by Geoffrey Boycott and is derived from the opinion that this is
the area in which a batsman struggles most to determine whether to play
forward or back, or whether to leave the delivery.
If a batsman leaves the ball, there's a chance the ball will turn inward and
either bowl him or hit him with an increased chance of leg before wicket. If a
batsman plays the ball, there's a chance the ball will go to the outside
instead, leading to an outside edge that can be easily caught.
Ramnaresh Sarwan played the ball to square-leg and ran for a single. When he
ran past the bowler X, to the surprise of many, X asked: “What does Brian
Lara’s dick taste like?”
This was rather odd, coming from X. But, he did ask Sarwan the question;
and Sarwan responded: “I don’t know. Ask your wife.”
Under normal circumstances, X would have accepted that he’d asked for it.
While a little voice pleaded for him to ignore it, something just wouldn’t allow
him to let the slur go unchallenged. X’s fingers were pointed at Sarwan, and the
words that came out of his mouth were not exactly the kind you’d associate with
the legend.
“If you f**king mention my wife again, I’ll f**king rip your f**king throat out.”
Id X.
