Interesting and fun reads, carry on. Really useful, now for practice!
Hi, your articles are great. It is helping me to play the game of cricket better than how i used to play. Thanks for all the great tips.
Your newsletter is great and full of information. I have been using the tips to help my son improve his game. Keep up the good work
Your newsletter is excellent. There is one thing I’d like to have covered, and that is how to bowl with medium/fast accurately. Do you just focus on a single point? Or do you adjust your releasing arm, or what? It’s so confusing for a new starter!
Hi Ian
Thanks for all the info you have been sending me overthe last few months. I have a cricket tip for you. You are probally familar with the “eyein ” device that is used to improve your batting. Well i made my own version its cheaper and in my opinion better. Basically you get one of those white plastic balls that is covered in holes (you can get them various sizes i find the golf sized ones the best) then all you do is thread a clear piece of fishing string through on of the holes and secure it with a knot. Then cut the line to an appropiate lenght and tie it onto a tree or something.
Thanks for all your advice its been much appreciated i hope you find my tip handy and can get some use out of it. Thanks again and all the best for 2007.

Your site and articles are amazing!!!
I thought i knew alot about cricket, but after reading your stuff, i’ve come to know that there is alot of stuff i don’t know.
Do you recommend watching any specific players and pick up tips from them. I love watching the modern players like Kevin Pieterson and AB DE Villiers for batting and Brett Lee and McGrath for bowling(i bowl medium fast)

Thanks for all the tips you have provided… I have tried few of your tips in my game and it worked out pretty well.. Thanks again and please continue to keep up the good work.
Thanks for the tips. The season has gone very well and I am on track for being the top wicket taker for my under 13 team. Still having problems with my batting though, do you think I am taking the wrong guard? I take middle but more often than not I get bowled either leg stump or off stump.
Many thanks for sending me all the valuable material which has helped me in coaching my son who is on his way to becoming (maybe) a future Murlitharan.
If you can, i would like to request you to send me any material which can help my son (age 15) in fitness and fielding drills. Also some tips in how to set up a right hand or a left hand batsman in playing a false shot. I wnat him to become a patient and a thinking bowler. Do you have videos?

thank u very much……
First of all, EXCELLENT and very good work Mr. Canaway.
I am from Pakistan and play as a top order batsman. I like to play proper cricket shots to make the score board moving. I depend on drives and elegant stroke making for most of my runs rather than adapting a ‘Beast’ approach.
Recently, I was looking to buy a new bat for me and your article solved the puzzle and now I have a Kookaburra according to my game style.
Your fielding and batting articles have also been very helpful 2 me and I love to be associated with you and thats 4 free!!!
Thank you so much

Hi Ian
I have played cricket for 50 years so I am afraid it is now too late to change the habits of a lifetime. One more season then I will just umpire games. However your tips will benefit young players relatively new to playing cricket and improve the game of players not so old as me.
ps Any tips on umpiring?
