A strange thing happened in the final of IPL 7.

Batting first against KKR, King's XI Punjab had two in form overseas superstars ready to go in and start crashing boundaries. Maxwell looked primed. Miller was itching to biff it. Instead, a slight wicketkeeper with a traditional technique - best known for not being MS Dhoni - was sent in after 5 overs.

Wriddhiman Saha looks every bit the anti-T20 player. His batting was once said to have "the look of an accountant passing journal entries." Solid. Reliable. Safe.

He ignored this cliche about himself, and proceeded to smash a blistering Twenty20 hundred. Read on to find out how you can emulate this story in your Twenty20 cricket.

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

The winning question was:

"I'm a young leg spin bowler and my run up is not a smooth one, but when I play in my backyard I have a different run up (it is a very smooth run up too), just because I don't have enough room for my normal run up. I tried bowling with my backyard run up at training and it seems I can bowl just as well or a bit better, and my pivot and back leg going up and over is better and easier with the backyard run up compared to my normal run up. I also do a lot of my training in my backyard. So should I use my backyard run up or go back to using my normal run up?"

Listen to the panels answer to his question here.

Mark Garaway joins David Hinchliffe to talk about playing and coaching cricket.

The show kicks off with discussion on a couple of #garasgold articles about the cost of extras and the 40 run consequence net.

We catch up with the work being done at the Chris Gayle Academy in London.

Finally we discuss questions of the difference between "backyard" and "normal" run up for a leg spinner, and help a coach set some fitness standards for his team of 17-15 year old players.

We all have to play in wet conditions.

The ball slips out of your hand because it's so slippy. Nothing swings. It's hard to bat. You are more likely to fall in the field. It's a nightmare.

But it's also an opportunity.

Sure, you don't have to enjoy it. It's not easy, but it is a test of your skills. It's also a test of your character. Can you hunker down, show some grit and "put in a shift"?

There is chance you will fail because the odds are against you. But there is an equally fair chance your opponents will mess up just as bad.

All you have to do to win is make fewer mistakes.

What a chance, especially against strong opposition.

So set your wet weather tactics correctly.

Make sure and practice in the rain.

Work on your luck skills

And get on with it!

You'll be surprised how far a positive frame will take you.

Rewind to 2004 and a moment that struck a chord with world-class cricketers.

When Michael Vaughan took over as England captain, he said that he wanted 10 other captains out on that pitch with him every day.

Very soon that group of England players were winning Test match after Test match on their way to Ashes success. As a group of coaches, we felt that there was a minimum of 9 captains on the field at any one time.
