Mark Garaway, David Hinchliffe and Burners are back together to chat about playing and coaching cricket. In this show they discuss the implications of pitches on coaching players.

The team also help a teacher train focus in his young players, and a spinner on what the 10,000 hour rule really means.

We all know that catches win matches, yet there is one type of catching opportunity that is being taken in the upper echelons of the game that isn't transferred down the playing levels.

It's when a player dives forward to take a blinder.

This year I am coaching a group of talented 11 year old players. The kind of guys who one day hope to play professional cricket over 4 or 5 days.

Bur right now they are 11 years old and have only played 20 overs. This season they have had to jump up to playing 40 over games as well.

It's a big jump in required levels of stamina and concentration. One similar to players entering the professional game going from one day to multi-day cricket.

So how do you prepare your body and mind for this unique cricketing challenge?

The Doosra is a ball with a longer tradition than you may think.

An Australian bowler called Jack Potter was bowling these bad boys roughly 30 years before Saqlain Mushtaq even came on the scene. Jack never did play for Australia, but he does hold the record for being 12th man the most for Australia without ever winning the cap.

But I digress. The fact is that the doosra has a long tradition.

The elephant in the room about this ball is a simple question though

This week's winner of the Cricket Show podcast question competition is Ashu. He wins a free coaching course from PitchVision Academy.

It's can be a coaches' worst nightmare to lose the teams best player or captain ahead of a crucial match.

Can you remember your first ever net session?

It's quite likely that your first ever net was pretty similar to the net you had last week. The bowling may be faster and your pads a bit bigger, but essentially the humble net hasn't changed: batting for 20 minutes (if you are lucky) on a different surface to match-day; using old balls; having no fielders; bowlers alternating after every delivery; balls continuously fed; batsmen not running-between-the-wickets; and focusing on execution of correct technique over tactical decision making.

PitchVision Academy are dedicated to cricket around the globe, so when our friends at the Uganda Cricket Association told us they were looking for a new national coach we jumped to help.

UCA requires the services of a coach to the national team in preparation for the ICC World Twenty20 and ICC World Cup Qualifying competitions.
