    Yeah it was a great experience Dan, great way to learn a lot. And thanks for your question. The team went for a jog and stretch before getting into specific warm ups. After stretching the team split off into different groups to go work on specific skills that they would need to warm up for...

    Hi Harry, the U17 comp is the same format as the senior competition however we don't have any T20 games and the season is shorter so is gives opportunity for younger players to play in the senior teams rather than having games clashing.

    List Of Drills For Leg Spin Bowling

    I have a few drills which I like to use for my front arm. First one is a standing start and one step drill. Really focus on using your front arm. The other one that I just started using and I found it works really well, is a kneeling down drill. You don't use your lower body so you can really...

    No worries. I love the stand start drill. It is one of the best drills to make sure your action is all in sync. It's a drill I always use at the start of my bowling sessions, just to warm up and make sure that everything is inline.

    One of my favourite moments was when one of our chinaman bowlers (he played for Australia U16 a few years ago and spins the ball more than anyone I've seen) was having difficulty landing the ball consistently. I noticed his non bowling arm was very lazy and wasn't pushing through towards the...

We would usually a one or two nets for spin bowlers, during the second training session of the week we would spend more time bowling to batsman. However we spend...

    Not being a scientist so I don't really know. However from my experience if you bowl slower air has more time to contact the ball and create drift and bowling faster air has less time to contact the ball. However, by bowling slower, not always but generally, your action does not have that 'snap'...

    Hi Dave, obviously spinning the ball hard is the key to getting the ball to drift (the Magnus effect). There are a few other things that will help make the ball drift more, but it more like getting the ball to swing (like a fast bowler). Keeping one side of the ball shiny and the other side...
