Yeh will be some more on tonight depending on the weather really.. Anything youd like too particularly  see ?

If your astro is a bit dodgey, slow down the pace, get it on a good lenth on off stump and it will be good to see your technique.

As the pace will be down really think about keeping upright and well balanced with your weight coming forward into the ball. Really think about trying to play everything back towards the camera (if the line is straight enough of course) if not then in the V.

Yeh sweet mate ill do that later..  the camera is placed like behind where the bowler would release the ball .. not bang in the middle as the bowling machine frame gets in the way of the camera

Like to see your front foot make a more positive forward movement to the ball. Some of the off stump/off side balls you are throwing the hands at and arriving with your feet a bit later. It's relative to the speed of the delivery, but even a half stride would help - especially if you get a nip backer.

You look a good player! Not to sure if I would use a trigger and a forward press against spin mind but each to their own. What gloves are they? Love the blue and like on the them

Cheers mate.. and yeh i only use it really .. as if i just trigger i get stuck in my crease so its something ive sort of worked on to stop me over balancing and it sort of works for me . and there a pair of lukeys gloves i think he was a sponsor on here a while ago but his shops only half n hour from me (hes in preston) so i get them from him.. there good gloves but i use them for netting and woodstock in games

Looks good mate, head is a bit lopsided when you set up but it sorts out when you trigger.

Its not easy on a bowling machine when you are used to a trigger move i find. my last effort on a bowling machine, the first 4 balls knocked my off stump out of the ground!

Yeh i actually find it quite hard ... as the balls comes from the same place but you dont pick up the line till a lot later.. where as with a bowler you see it the whole way.. if that makes sense

Exactly my problem

Went for a net with toenails and the first 4 balls at 65mph I didn't really see them and using my trigger I was all over the place .... Knocked my off stump back 4 balls on the trot!!

With it being indoor John it was probably around 70mph as it comes on a hell of a lot quicker! I reckon I'm gonna get some contact lenses to try and help out batting

[GarrettJ]

Think I'm gonna get some too
