Cricket Show 235: Competition Winner

Filed in:

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

The winning question was:

"I am a coach at high school and I have a bowler who bowls off the wrong foot. He takes wicket regularly with that action, he also bowls good line and length, swings the ball and controls it well. My problem is that whenever I try to change his action he loses control of the ball and swing. He has the best bowling statistics in the province and he has always drawn the attention of the under 14 national selectors. The selectors said the can't take him until he fixes his bowling action. I was given two weeks to work on him. How do I go about changing him"

 

Listen to the panels answer to his question here.
