Bowled too short, both wickets were mistimed to square leg [emoji23] Definitely threatened when I did pitch it up though, just got to work on bowling too short. Also this match is on Astro.

Haha all good mate, figured it was probably just a typo given R is right above D on the keyboard [emoji23]

Been selected for the 3rd XI (One Day, no stream) on Saturday and Colts (T20, Streamed) on Sunday.

My issue isn’t identifying the issues, it’s actually fixing them.

I have a list of issue I keep: 1. Front arm higher and stronger 2. Bowling arm in front of eyes in load up 3. Power through back leg 4. Higher knees in jump and gather (not a higher jump in general) 5. Try to get more side on (this one isn’t a major concern as plenty of bowlers bowl...

Yeah I’d been working on my front arm and load up but they really reverted back for that game annoyingly. I’ve had a consistent problem with my front arm being lazy but I’ve been getting better. I’ve also been trying to get my load up in front of my eye line more, because my elbow starts behind...

That was just the first image I found on google that showed what I meant. I probably take most of my technical stuff from Cummins and Starc (even though he’s left handed). They both have really nice, rhythmical bowling actions.

Nah didn’t have a bat, fielded at mid off a bit on camera before I bowled haha

That’s the problem I’m a super-nuffy and also nerdy uni student that likes researching. All the other blokes in my colts team seem more inclined to go down the apprenticeship route. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, they just probably aren’t as inclined to analyse their bowling with...

Had training last night, I’m trying to work on rotating through properly in my action so my torso finishes closer to parallel with the ground. At the moment I’m not sure if I’m just a bit stiff but I’m struggling to understand HOW I’m supposed to rotate through from release point and get into...

Yeah there’s usually a reason you don’t see very many super young fast bowlers in professional cricket, just way too much stress on the body.

There’s always the people I play my colts games with. There’s some promising players in there. Not sure how well received this idea would be though.

Some of the Aussies in the leg spin thread might be keen. I know “Leggy88” is younger than me so he’d possibly be playing colts.

Oh ok, his poor recent form probably clouded my memory of him.

I like Ward, just couldn’t convert 20-30s into actual scores. Big shame.

I thought Connolly has looked very good in the limited opportunities he’s had at first class level. He’s averaging 54 in first class cricket. Davies is averaging 51.68 although he’s a bit more of a Head kind of player with a looser technique.

Imo the playing XI should be: Konstas Bancroft McSweeney Davies Connolly Webster Peirson Neser Murphy Buckingham Last pick is tough between O’Neill, Steketee and McAndrew

I honestly just think we’re made of glass over here. Not sure why, maybe inbreeding. We are pretty isolated. Thankfully I’m yet to have a serious injury, touch wood.

Respect for calling them the Warriors. His issue is that WA have Jhye Richardson, Joel Paris, Lance Morris and Cam Gannon in the way. I rate him more than Gannon, but apparently he’s at the bottom of the pecking order for some reason. Seems to pick up wickets at a pretty similar rate...
