I have been netting since the beginning of October after playing outdoor up to 18th of September. This week started with my club, maybe was a little cocky and batting was awful, bowling was good but not enough to recover form the awful batting. Just got into a local academy so will be there every other week doing 1 to 1 coaching up to the first game of the season. Will still be netting Wednesday nights and Saturday afternoon when I am not in the Academy on a Sunday

I went to my pals nets on Saturday, first shot since September was a glorious drive back past the bowler all along the ground at a rapid rate, plus the bowler was fairly rapid.

Oh well at least I can tick that shot of for this season, didn't quite think it would be in febuary but there you go!! Perhaps I'll pull it out of the bag again before September

I had 3 in 3 days, it's better in the summer when you have 5 games in 5 days xD.

Had a good one today.

After 2 winter nets where somebody tried to teach me a 'classical' SLA action to allow me to really give the ball a tweak, this just confused me, and meant I was either bowling full bungers or long hops.

I stuck with it for the first 20 mins today, and it just wasn't working - so went back to my old run-up and actin, and it just started coming out right, including bowling the 1stXI opener!

This means I don't turn it much, but I get plenty of flight and dip - it also means I can bowl it where I want it, and hopefully get much more of a bowl this season.

Yay! I love a good net.

Just back from my nets, enjoyed my bat and produced a few decent balls. Wearing a nice ball mark on my thigh, maybe one day I'll wear a thigh pad. Pain is good tho!!

We have someone who doesn't bowl fast or move the ball. But just puts it were he wants, bowls the nagging length. Picked up 30 + wickets last season.

This year will be your year!
