Another Friday night, another net!
This time I was batting on my own (none of this pairs swap every 4 balls crap) so I uploaded 6 minutes of raw footage.
Enjoy the wides!

Full whites at nets looks village.
Where's the Nike bat from?
And is your trigger movement natural or forced? As seems different all the time. And occasionally a big lbw candidate.

@WalkingWicket37

Full whites at nets looks village. Agreed! That's why I'm not wearing them 
Where's the Nike bat from? I'm not allowed to tell you as the use of fake stickers is not encouraged on this forum lol (it's an MSR with eBay stickers!
And is your trigger movement natural or forced? As seems different all the time. And occasionally a big lbw candidate. The one where I just go accross is sort of natural/was coached into me from a young age. When I'm going back and accross it was deliberate as they were quicker bowlers, but watching it back I'm going a long way accross.

Thanks for the feedback mate. I noticed straight away my bat is coming down straighter this week, and in turn less is going to the leg side.
As for triggers I'll speak to a coach next week and see what they think, cheers for pointing it out though, I had no idea I was stepping in front of all 3 stumps to play some shots!

why is wearing whites village? I've never done it before but have started to recently as I might as well use the kit I'll wear in games and is designed for it than use my normal training kit.

It says so in the "bible o village"


In amateur cricket there are 3 types of people.

White haters- there the ones that white up 2 mins before fielding. Change for tea and as soon as there batting is done.

Normal people- they white up with 30 to 20 mins of play started. And stay in whites until the equipment is away. They may even have a pint in whites.

The whiteout brigade. These are the ones that take the brunt of the banter. They arrive 2hrs before start already in whites. They stay for drinks, in this and drive home in them.
Hell there even seen in meet up car parks for away games sat on the car bonnet in whites!

And even the later don't train in whites! As its just village.



All jokes aside, I think it's the "all the gear no idea" view. The guy that tends to turn up in all whites at winter nets is the one that has alot of heart, but very little talent.

But there's always exceptions, not that any off the pros practice in whites. Special training gear. Shorts, thigh and chest guard outside there shirts etc.

And in this case it was even more village because it was full whites and black trainers! Cardinal sin

[ProCricketer1982]

not sure I take what the pro's wear as an indication as they get all teh gear given to them etc. Oh well, I'll keep doing my nets in whites. saves my training kit for fielding training as I'd never do warm ups, fielding training in whites. I have been wearing black trainers though as they are old and it saves scuffing up my new ones

Net session I filmed and edited from Saturday after our game got cancelled.

This is what inevitably happens when you decide to wear a helmet cam to bat on tour... Cleaned up by the South African overseas, hopefully video link works?
