After watching these videos all i can think is i would back myself to get you all out bar the stig!
Lol. You really wouldn't want to bet on that too much. What is it they say? Nets against a bowling machine are no indicator of performance in the middle?... Our, 20 overs of frustrating bowlers to score a couple of league bonus points is the other way to look at it...

Norblett - may be some classic SAF's being lined up for Batoff II (Son of Batoff). For a small fee I can ensure being filmed whilst using one!

the bowling machine was set to half volley length as we were testing bats, not technique.
this will all change for batoff 2: revenge of the bowling machine.

half volley length means nothing to me and my bating style, I still would have hit one off the ceiling... :D
