Pace is king.... finger spinners should be consigned to the bin...I alternate between pace and other skills for my seamers every week. Some of ZCCs fastest ever bowlers are in this current squad lol. Have come around to the view that it's quite essential to remain competitive.
Experience with Passmore... and now with others... I train the pace as much as possible. I will swap over to line and length for a week or two, but the idea is I get them to Fast and then alternate between the line and length and pace as one drops because of the other. The only argument is that pace seems a consistent 3 star coaching whereas the other drop off as they get older. But worked for me so far.Straight away is what I've been doing recently. Not sure how it will work out, especially if I have to train line & length later on.
Uhmmm I have two very good spinners in my squad currently, one is my all time wicket taker with 748 wicket at 18 Ave and Sr. Don't wright them off so quickly. I had another that took 544 wickets at an average of 18 and Sr of 21. I get they can be a liability because most home grounds are high moisture and very quick. I have had decent run in the opposite spectrum.Pace is king.... finger spinners should be consigned to the bin...
