The point that human beings are not machines would stop this from happening. The stamina would drop, lessening power and concentration. Have you ever had a slog in the nets and had a sore back at the end of it? Multiply that times over to see what it would be like to slog repetitively for 20 or...

Well, what is the problem with your bowling? Or were you just posting a video for general comments/feedback??

I have a question, i find it easier to swing the ball bowling seam up, as opposed tho the conventional seam to first slip/leg slip theory. Am I a freak? Or is it just my bowling action??

You look good, but as i think other people have said, you move around a bit whilst playing the ball. I understand you arent at your full theight yet and may have to jump to get a few balls, but if you keep your feet still whist playing front and square of the wicket shots, you have a power base...

I was a number 10-11 batsman for a while, before working hard at it until given the opportunity to move up the order. I would say the top priority is defence, once you get that down, work on playing straight bat shots, then cross bat shots. It takes effort, but you dont have to be stuck at the...

It would have to be Jaques Kallis. So technically perfect, never looks troubled at the crease

Re: Aus A squads I have absolutely nothing against nathan hauritz, im just saying that IMO, doherty is the better bowler for limited overs matches, but one advantage hauritz may have is his batting

Re: Aus A squads good to see a lot of tassie boys in the teams, the future bodes well for tasmanian cricket. May i just say (unrelated) it's a travesty that in the Australian ODI & T20 Nathan Hauritz is picked ahead of Xavier Doherty? I mean, picking Smith is fair enough, i mean, they want him...

Re: Stepping Away in the Nets This was a huge problem for me when i was in under age cricket, and still occasionally troubles me today, and inhibits a lot of my leg side shots. My coach basically got me to concentrate on getting a stride towards the ball when i'm playing front foot shots, and...

Re: Wearing helmet Interestingly enough, I wore a helmet for quite a while, but when i made the decision to stop using one, my batting much improved, as my vision got a lot better and i could see more gaps in the field. I'm about 6'3, so balls up around my head arent that common, but when they...

Re: [Rant] Cricket not a sport Someone who plays soccer calling cricket a girls sport?? tell them to play real footbal - union.

Re: Wrong'un as stock delivery I have a mate with the same thing. Started off bowling left arm chinaman, tried to bowl a wrong un and now he can only get the chinaman working occasionally

Re: playing against senior bowlers for the first time Remember. The bowler's main aim of the game is to get you out. Intimidating you wont get you back in the sheds if they dont bowl on the stumps, or get you to hit one in the air. Keep your chin up, dont rise to the bait, and dont play stupid...

Re: I want to bowl way faster and swing way better agree with Phil2008. It really doesnt matter how fast you are (to a point) as long as you can pick up wickets, and win games for your side, you will be picked.

Re: Tips on what to do when waiting to bat i'm not really a fully fledged batsman, more a bowling all rounder or a bowler who can bat a little bit, but what i try and do is just before i go out to bat, clear my mind of any distractions, and focus on batting, where i want to hit the ball, etc...

Re: Your funniest/most interesting cricketing stories 2 stories, one was a few years ago and i had somehow left my 'abdominal protector' to be pc at home. I reckon, well, i'm a tailender, so i wont really need it, and what does the third ball do? hit me square in the nuts. I managed to make...

Re: Suggest a name??? :D The tony greig? because, like his key, it sticks in the pich

Re: Problems Thanks, I'll try these suggestions out tomorrow

Re: Off Spinning Guide thanks for the advice Boris, bowled them at training toward the end, and was turning and landing them well (for a part timer) and had a top six left hander's edge and beat him a few times, so im fairly happy with how they are coming. I've even incorporated them into my...
