Had another indoor academy 1:1 today and it felt weird going back into indoor nets after starting outdoor last week.

I have outdoor academy next Sunday morning followed by a friendly. League starts on the 1st/2nd may weekend

oh, talking of wickets. We got a brand new mat for our all weather track, it needed a new mat and it looks nice

the only problem is because of lack of turf for the edges, we put some soil and seedlings down for it.......hit it and your kinda wide......and low

Had a net on the square today, was bloody awful, felt so weary after jogging and doing weights in an attempt to get fit. Was just awful though, need to relax. Was mowing everything unsuccessfully through leg side, walking through shots, just terrible! WORRIED!

Tough day today.  3 overs, 0-18 with the ball.  And then 26 off 52 balls opening the batting, in 21 overs of very testing bowling.  And we lost.

gets worse mate, while they were doing the other side of the mat, I was rolling the soil in so it wasnt all crumbly and would form better, finished it and the roller slowed down a little, when it got to doing the 2nd side, the roller wouldnt move, the drive belt got loose and wouldnt move. we had to push it back to the shed (and having a slope that was easy, was like pushing a sled), but the other side wasnt flattened propperly. It showed today

yeah, its nervous times for me, our umpire said the rain will wash it down the slope (got to love our slope..... I think I should upload some photos to show you what i mean) and another guy said it felt like the mat wasnt down tight enough, hopefuly it should all be alright

still, its £1000 for a mat, and to get it repaired by a professonial would be £5000, saves money doing it yourself :P

first game today, and a double header because our league doesn't seem to think we have enough sundays to play on... any other game i wouldn't care about, but you don't have a double-points game on the first day of the season! anyways, we batted first, scored 141, one of the young lads hit 92 off about 70 balls, we were all out after 34 overs (out of 40). got a duck, typical, horribly low slow pitch though, spinner bowled a long-hop, ended up bottom edging it at about shin height! bowling was good, 1-27 off 10 including beating both sides of the bat about 5 times each... still lost, second to last ball with a six needed. guess what happened...
