That video is fantastic great find Dave, Smith must be getting so much from him even in a short twenty20 comp. Have a look at the wicket at about 28 seconds in, a stumping off a beauty of a wrong 'un, just watch the umpire wet himself over the clear bamboozlement of the batsman.
A woo hoo. First nets of the winter/spring training today and all was fairly well, playing on mats in a sports hall and the bounce was decidedly off but they weren't too bad to bowl on. Found line and length fairly quickly which bodes well and was getting really big turn. Thanks there must go to...
I had always been an advocate of usign the lightest bat you could find, always felt that the lighter the bat the quicker you could move it, that's pretty damn useful playing on pitches that can see balls on a length scratching your nose. Last season however I stepped up from my 2,7 to a monster...
Tres seemed to know his stuff to be fair, explained the difficulties of facing Ajmal/Murali really nicely. He and Willis had a nice chat about the modern seamers scrambling the seam and mimicking hand positions to throw batsmen off their variations. Regarding the 'Teesra' I thoroughly enjoyed...

If I had to say a current player I'd have to go with Trott, a truly unflappable run machine, agreed not the best player across all formats but I've always loved test cricket. Favourite all time I think I'd have to go with Robyn Smith but I might have been influenced by living in Hampshire around...
Leg break is generally a bit variable. Seam alignment never an issue seem to be lucky that it just comes out of the hand nice and straight. Generally its very square, I tend not to get too much dip but lots of drift in to the right hander, occasionally the seam is straighter. Normally when I'm...
Just found this site and though I'd introduce myself. Just switched club and finally downed the keeping gloves for what has always been the dream of being a twirlyman and saw this when looking for tips and drills. Been dabbling in nets for a couple of years now with some degree of focus towards...
