    Help!!! With Pace

    this indeed is a very good topic, fast bowling is about bio mechanics, strength, power desire, technique, the list is endless, at the age of 15 my son was a incredibly fast bowler (80 m.p.h), then he went to durham county cricket club, who under the tuition of geoff cook and martin speight...

    yes you possibly did, that doesnt mean that it was right and bearing in mind these regs are only about 8 years old, and if you go into the ecb guidelines and regs, it states the forementioned about hard ball training, it is now a litigation nightmare, all stems from about 8 years ago a kid 12...

    Viv Richards v Greg Chappell

    we have the same problem here about a certain geoff boycott, best batsman i have seen in my opinion has to be graham gooch, best allrounder has to be jack kallis, and the best quick, joel garner/malcolm marshall, best orthodox off spinner john embury, best leg spinner shane warne :@ :@ :) best...

    Viv Richards v Greg Chappell

    to be fair it actually seems to me to put these two batsmen together is unfair, bearing in mind the two differing styles and temprament of these guys, i have seen footage of chappell and seems to be a alan border no nonsense cricketer, while the master blaster is............. well the master blaster

    Hi Niel, not so much the net session, but certainly with a hard ball, you need ecb level 2 to coach with a hard ball, yes you are right about the level 3 thats what i meant the 5 modules just get you too the door

    Should I Bowl With My Head Down ?

    i know what you mean, but not in the same way anderson tucks his head in, at point of delivery pollock is probably looking where he wants the ball to go, whereas anderson is looking at his feet

    i think the changes in the format of the level 2 is to try and accomodate school teachers, you see in england you cannot coach a net session with a hard ball unless you are level 2 or higher, thus the old level 2 was brought about before these new safety regs, its market was based on good...

    Should I Bowl With My Head Down ?

    a good question, for me if you look at the best bowlers the world has seen, and if you take quick bowling as a example, and further more we take dennis lilly for side on and curtley ambrose for front on, as ball is delivered very little head rotation as in dipping, side on obvo the head needs to...
