Buy me a beer this week
If you like all the free advice I have given you on this site, why not buy me a beer?
Running this site is my passion. I love helping you and every other reader of harrowdrive improve their cricket and not charge for it.
I need to cover the cost of running the site without forcing intrusive ads on you that annoy both of us. So instead of putting a load of adverts on the site or charging you to read it I'm going to ask you to donate a couple of quid.
The essential elements to cricket success


If you want to know where you are going, a map is a good place to start.
That's what these elements of success are all about: The philosphy that drives this site. Hopefully you will understand a little more where I am coming from. Hopefully you will be able to start creating your own map.
Are you worried your body fat is preventing your cricket success?


Should club cricketers care about carrying a bit of excess weight?
The first class and international game is peppered with examples of players who didn't let a belly get in the way of doing well: Rob Key, Arjuna Ranatunga, Shane Warne.
You couldn't call them failures.
Fielding Drills: Chase and return (single or double team)
Purpose: To practice chasing, picking up and returning to the wicketkeeper.
Description: The keeper or coach rolls the ball out for the first fielder to chase and return. To practice team throws, 2 players can chase, the first flicking the ball back for the second. The player then returns to the group. Variations: The player can stay out in the deep for the coach or keeper to hit a catch or ball along the ground for another return.
