Ok, I said I'd put some videos up and here two of them. I'll be putting more up as they upload. Let me know your opinions please as I'm wanting to keep improving. Obviously there is the odd bad shot (that you will see I know about when I do them ) but I'm looking for anything that's a regular fault that I can look to iron out.

Cheers

As things are mentioned I'll put them here to remind me what to work on and also remind you guys what I'm supposed to be learning
1 - Bottom hand to tight

[Bulldog Cricket]

Looks very food adi. Nice stance and solid set up. Just watch that bottom hand griping too tight which makes playing through the covers tricky but apart from that looks excellent.

First up I'd checkbyour guard. What would you usually take?
In some deliveries you are covering all 3 with your pads.
This may be because that the bowling machine is set up for a cut so its premeditated, obviously difficult when you're on your own.

Other than that, perhaps try and stand up a bit taller but this is only a minor thing. As long asyour head is still!

Hope to see more on saturday in Yeovil!

[ProCricketer1982]

yeah I'd noticed that. I actually 'should' be on middle stump. To be honest, weirdly if you watch I'm constantly checking my guard virtually every ball (as I do) so it was surprising to see me so far over on the VT's. I'll be measuring it out next time though to ensure I am in fact on middle.

Hopefully without the two poor shots on saturday .. Wasn't happy with them.

I am no expert at all but from what I see you seem to snatch at ay certain shots rather than letting it come to you

The start of the first video should have theme music, Some bey!


Can the remote feeder work on any bola?

[Bulldog Cricket]

Adi. I reckon you move across your stumps as you favour the leg side and have a strong bottom hand grip (works for kp so don't worry too much) but I would set the machine up about a foot outside off stump and practice the cover / mid off drive. Do it 10,000 times and you will have is sussed

I think so (obviously) once the automatic feeder is in place

[procricket]

Your a foot planter mate

You do not follow your eyes/head/shoulder

Your foot plants and you play around your pad
Not sure of it your natural way or it because our doing the bowling machine set

As far as I'm aware it should work on any Bola Bowling machine.

Solution ??

The only thing I can thing is trying to move later and so not planting it.

cheers! The first ball comes out quickly so if you look most first balls are hit in some random way.

haha, yep the 10,000 times rule.. oh boy.

Leg side player huh, I think your the first one to ever say that. I've not been able to play off my legs till about this time last year. I'm much more comfy hitting off side and a very front foot player out of preference. I'll shift the machine a bit further outside off stump next time though, maybe it was a bit 'straight' given I seemed to have moved to a off-middle guard

Does it just connect onto the top bit then? Thought you were gonna send a text before you had a bat haha
