Re: England in New Zealand The problem with England at the moment is that too many players are in so so form. They have to pick the players who are in form to carry those having bad runs. The keeper situation is a joke, I may have to stick my hat into the ring.

Re: Retirements There will be in maybe 7 or 10 years time though and i reckon one of the current bunch will step up and become a good enough spinner. They were spoilt with Warne though. As for retirements another one has been announced in Jason Gillispe. A few doubts as to whether or not he...

Re: Best sight in cricket Best sight for me is spying the batsman walking off after getting a snick. Normally means that I've managed to cling on to a catch! Other than that i really like watching good keepers, especially the likes of Russell and Knott.

Re: Energy systems required for a batsman to score 100 runs I enjoyed reading that post, makes you think about batting and what your body really goes through. I always find it amazing when reading\studying about the different ways that the body can make energy etc. Top stuff!

Re: Yoga Exercises for the Back Is yoga something you can do on your own, is it better to go with a teacher the first few times?

Re: Making nets Purposeful I think every club does the 12 from 6 at the end of the nets! Sounds a good theory in making the nets work more for you. Will see if we can do something like it next week. Might give some of our guys a perk up after the circuits!

Re: Post Pictures of your Kit! How much kit do you own! Nice one, must have been a real bargin there. Also, nice kook earlier in the thread. Attached is a pic of my bat when it was new. I had it made up blank and added the County stickers (a friend brought them abck fro me.

Quota row leaves Arthur's job under threat Correct me if im wrong but i thought they had abandoned the quota system? it seems wrong to lose a good coach over something like this, surely his job is to pick the team he thinks will do the best job? not at all good for SA cricket (might help...

Re: Best English Spinner I do recall seeing some stuff about young English spinners in the ECB site - will have a look to see if i can fin it agina. Snow cricket would be awesome, cold, but much fun. (apoligies for typing, just finuished a rather gruelling shift).

Re: How fast are you? I can regulary hit 70kph lol. I only bowl dibbly dobblers, much like Snape, I reckong my slower ball is about 30mph.

Re: Pre Season - How to go about it Blue skies and sunshine would be nice, but what can you do! Have to say that we havent had as much moaning as I expected from some of the older players but we are trying to keep things 'cricket related'. Will be introducing some interval runs as well, just...

Re: Practicing fast bowling on your own Manee is right, also I'm sure I read it elsewhere on here. Give it a go, you have nothing to lose (well maybe a few tennis balls).
