Learn Highly Effective Cricket Batting and Bowling Tips
Has anyone else seen the ‘new’ Adidas advert/video with Sachin Tendulkar?
In the video Sachin tells the story of how he was a kid, his coach would put a coin on top of the batsmans stumps, if the bowler got the wicket he would keep the coin. Then at the end his message is that:
“At whatever level you reach, getting better never stops” - nothing is impossible.
This video will make you laugh! There’s some excellent clips here of how NOT to bat!

Hi there, I just wanted to put up a quick post to recommend that you view this blog in Internet Explorer 7 (you might need to upgrade to it) or alternatively in the Mozilla Firefox browser which you can download from the button below.
For some reason people who use Internet Explorer 6 have problems with the right hand side bar being pushed to the bottom of the screen. Using IE7 or Firefox (which I use) should resolve this.
Thanks,

I don’t know about you, but I really don’t like cold showers! Why? Because they are cold! However, believe it or not, there are some real benefits of cold showers (apart from helping cure hangovers).

This came as a real shock for everyone, but the sudden death of cricket coach Bob Woolmer (who had been working with Pakistan) was totally unexpected. He was only 58. Tributes have been pouring out from the coaches, players and fans, you can read some of them here:
Many people included myself saw Woolmer as a potential predecessor to Fletcher if he decided to go, but I guess it was never to be…
Woolmer was undoubtedly a very influential coach who has helped further the progress of cricket and raise standards of the game. My condolences go out to his family and friends, he will be missed by many.

Hello fellow cricketers, I’ve just realised how cool it would be to post some great cricket videos on the blog, focussing on cricket tips and techniques, as well as the occasional funnies.
