I launch my lid when I get into the changing room. One of the main reasons for selling my Ayrtek.
Should probably be looking for a new one soon as it's been launched a few times

I'm exactly the same, the helmet gets punched into the wall more often than not if it's a terrible shot. Although I did go through a phase where sometimes I felt all I could do was laugh at how bad the shot was or how bad a dismissal it was, I was however fuming at the same time but never left the pitch smiling

I never used to throw kit, but it makes me feel a lot better haha!

Most of the time it's me playing a bat shot I'm angry at myself for not having more patience and picking my shots

I will admit to never getting angry over T20, I usually do leave them smiling but that is because I genuinely don't care about T20. I just can't get interested in T20, just a slog fest for most people which is a bit boring so I generally use it as a social gathering with mates.

Not being angry over getting out is a good thing, it just shows that you know that cricket it a strange game and crap happens. Maybe a little bit of anger when you get out isn't a bad thing, especially when you've gotten yourself out with a rash and unneeded shot, but if you're beaten by a good ball, no point in getting angry. :) Definitely do not throw kit, unless it's softs. I will only every drop my bat on grass or softs if I'm annoyed, and will only throw pads and gloves directly to the floor. :-[

Recently ive had a few innings in which ive scored 40 odd and then some when i dont get above 5. Yet every time this season when ive gotten out (so about 7 times) ive not been annoyed what so ever, in fact when ive walked out the pitch ive been smiling. Im 16 and trying to push for a place in the 2nd team and currently play in the 3's play play in a premier division so is still a very good standard. So i was just wondering if this is a bad sign that i dont care when i get out?

I don't believe in getting angry, abusing kit and losing my composure. I think its ok to smile, I do it all the time as it helps me focus on the team and make right decisions as I am also the captain but one thing that you must be wary of is the feeling of "oh well". I spent the entire season last year getting out playing 3-4 balls per match, walk out with a smile and saying/thinking "oh well that's how I play"

That's not good, got to a point where people were making comments and I realized keeping cool is good but cool outside should burn the fire even hotter inside, in short work extra hard. Hope this makes sense.

I make a rule of never throwing my bat...after all that's what's got to score me runs next time

It depends.  If I've got a ball that I can't do anything about, there's nothing you can do but smile.
If it's a crap shot/bad decision by the umpire, I'm fuming. (God help whoever on my team gives me out with a bad decision.  It's not my kit that goes all over the changing room then...)

every time im out, even in the nets, on the beach or in my back garden i am fuming inside. I just grit my teeth, hang my head and walk off straight into the dressign room and take my kit off very slowly and analyse how i was out. Then after that i am fine and i go out and support my team.

In my younger days i would go straight to the dressing room, get my car keys and jump in my car and drive off   ..... and return an hour later!!

Michael Bevan used to do it when he was club pro so i must have caught it off him.

I generally put my head down shake it a little, look up and do the same and mutter something along the lines of "you stupid idiot"

When I swing and miss while batting, I will walk to towards square leg and shake the head ans mutter something along the lines of "stop being a richard"

Far to say I have to do this a lot as after I hit a 4 I tend to come out swinging (the mental side of my game is worse than my technical ability and that is saying something)

Our home changing room get's a hammering. I find a pad against a wall makes a good sound and let's everyone know not to come in for 5 mins.

I usually quit cricket immediatley, try and sell my gear and walk round the boundary chain smoking muttering the usual "I hate this (No Swearing Please) game, waste of a saturday, why do I bother, etc"

I have seen a bloke turn up to field for 50 overs, get a golden, then wrap his £300 kook round a football post....

I'm never annoyed if I was got out if that makes sense! A good ball great catch excellent fielding I can live with. I get dissapointed if I allow myself to get out by a lazy shot, bite at some chirp, bad shot etc. I get angry when cheated like last Saturday. I get angry at teams that appeal as soon as ball hits pad regardless of where it hits etc. that's what really gets me angry.

I must say I never throw kit, I normally just mumble something as I'm walking off just load enough that the intended target can hear it.
