    The chaps video would seem to be backed up in the main via the study done below. http://www.quintic.com/research/The%20Fast%20Medium%20Bowler.pdf

    A young Bowlers problem

    The lad has his talent otherwise you'd not have him playing to the next level. I get players like this to work out if its in their heads first and foremost - trying too hard and losing their own game execution. Before he destroys his current action, he has to give away control to gain it...

    Article on Coaching

    Its true there is a lot of new stuff out there. Sports Psych has been a rehash of the same deal for the last 10 years, with few getting to the nuts and bolts of how to deal with the incoming ball or how to actually learn skills. PHDs out there in the business of the mind miss the difference...

    Some help

    Anxiety comes from not knowing how to deal with something. Once you get your footwork right you will not get hit pulling or hooking if you've moved far enough to get out of the line of the incoming red thing. Back foot back and across so the balls outside your shoulder rather than under your...

    The Return of the Scoop

    No scoop in that range. Maybe they eat Magnums in the UK too (a chocolate ice-cream in Oz).

    Some help

    Watch him on Youtube hitting cover drives. Remember his is a leftie so the ball comes into him at a different angle than for a RHander. He is great to watch.

    Some help

    If you have ever done a 100m sprint the initial motion for a stand up start is to rock back a bit. This loads the back foot allowing the body to shift forward off its base.

    Some help

    Consider this line of thought. Ideally we want to pick both line and length. The guys above have correctly said some of lengths are a bit iffy to drive. What is glaring is your shoulders are closed to the balls line so you play across the ball rather than through the line. To do that well...

    front leg twists after release

    Do you land the left foot on its outside? You should land that front foot - heel, then ball of foot. It its landing a little more on the outside of the foot, the spikes doing their job will twist the wrong way and that will cause a trail of stress upwards. Front-on you'd never show your back...

    The Return of the Scoop

    Golfers know a peripheral weighted effort doesn't rob you if you 'just miss' the sweet spot. Did you find the scoop more forgiving or did you just play better cricket shots and the bat type would not have mattered? What level do you play?

    The Return of the Scoop

    Gray N has brought back the Scoop made famous during the '80s. As a golf pro, this design makes soooo much sense unless you find the sweet spot of your bat 90 times out of 100. Golf clubs have peripheral weighting for all but the full time professionals as if you miss the middle it...
