Default What are the regional terms for chucking in different regions?

Just looking back fondly about my teenage life when I used to play cricket in our villages in Chittagong, I remember how we used to mock chucking bowlers, calling them "tokka" bowlers. So, what term do you used to use in your region?

This was a good memory exercise . I can tell you that in the Buet Campus field , which is the only time I played everyday in my pre teen years. They used to call it a "chuck" or a "throw".

In Guyana: " Aye yuh ah pelt", "Umpyah dah bai peltin", and the bowler would start to act defensive. His reply: "Yuh know what is peltin bai?", he starts being aggressive now, "This how yah pelt", he aims the balls at the whistle-blower and proceeds to 'pitch'(as in baseball) the ball. Hitting his accuser plumb on the ribcage. Problem solved. That's backyard cricket fuh yuh, the same kind Shiv Chanderpaul played to perfect his batting stance, the 'bais' , I am guessing would pelt him alot.
