During my ECB Level 3 batting modules, I always ask the fellow coaches to throw up any ideas or drills that they have to add value to the module.

Last week Sussex Sharks Cricketer, Chris Nash, demonstrated a great drill that was intended to challenge decision making. The drill achieved its aim and opened up other vital elements of batting.

The basic drill

Get a batter padded up and ready to receive a ball. As a coach you stand 7 metres away from the crease.

Armed with a ball, the coach walks in 2 paces before delivering a fast-paced underarm delivery into either:

Cups got in touch to ask,

"How can we prevent side strains while bowling? Is it a biomechanical issue or weak muscles and if so what needs to be strengthened?"

Well Cups, side strains are common because of a number of factors. The two most preventable ones in my experience are technique and core strength.

So in fact, it's both.

Technically, you put a lot of strain on your sides if you have an action that "falls away". That is to say, your head is outside the line of your front foot, like this young man:

Mumbai Indians spinner Harbhajan Singh has knocked critics who say modern players don't bowl enough these days. He took 4-32 in the CLT20 Final and won man-of-the-match. All without doing a jot of practice.

The Indian spinner said after the final,

"I didn't practice at all. I was travelling to the US but I didn't practice much before this."

It makes you wonder if you need to do any practice at all.

I mean, if you could rock up after a 4 month holiday, and bowl your team to victory, why would you bother with nets or practice games?

National Women's Head Coach: Cricket Ireland

Closing Date: 29th October 2013

Cricket Ireland is the governing body for the game at both performance and participation levels throughout Ireland, representing the interests of both the men’s and women’s game. The future of Irish Cricket is incredibly bright following the performance of the Men’s senior team in the past five ICC World Cup events and significant wins against Full Member countries over the past 7 years.

This success has resulted in the rapid growth of the organisation and significant increase in turnover, particularly commercially, through the maintenance of partnerships with blue-chip multi-nationals, such as RSA Insurance. At the same time, our growth in playing strength has attracted the best teams in the world to play in Ireland, with teams such as England, Australia, West Indies, India, South Africa, Bangladesh and Pakistan visiting these shores since 2007.

Khalique dropped me an email recently for some advice on his bowling. I thought you might be able to give him some tips. Leave a comment and let us know.

"I am struggling with my pace: I had good pace with natural in swing but now during the last 3 years it has all gone. I am 6.3" tall and 68kg in weight. kindly help me to get my pace back and bowl like a fast bowler."

We have spoken a lot about bowling fast, from the action to fitness to mental approach. So I thought it was time to see if you can add to the suggestion pile, and also help Khalique reach the goal that many site readers also desire: searing, destructive pace.
