More turn is the ultimate improvement for spinners. The clue is in the name. So, here is a case study from a young spinner who doubled his turn in 10 weeks training.

Even better, he had never bowled spin seriously before last year.

Here's what happened, and how you can emulate his achievement.

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

The winning question was,

"​- While fast bowling my hand come too much over head. I just want be high arm action bowler what should I do?"

Listen to the panels answer to his question here.

Sam Lavery, Cricket Professional at Portsmouth Grammar School, has been wondering about specialising as a coach.

In a world where cricket is dominated by big money T20 tournaments and the draw of international cricket, many coaches see specialising at the best way to the top.

Cricket nets can easily become "just a hit" without any focus or improvement. Using this game from PitchVision, you can make them fun, competitive and useful when you play in a match.

It's the return of the finest cricket coaching podcast ever made! Mark Garaway, Sam Lavery and David Hinchliffe put their heads together for another half hour of audio coaching.

We often talk about "training hard and playing easy" on the Pitchvision Cricket Show. It’s a principle that you hear banded around all over the place within high performance sport.

Are you all "hot air" or do you actually "walk the walk"?

This is a brilliant, simple trick for bowlers to get a big hitting batsman away from the strike if you are struggling to get them out.

Hit the thigh pad.

This trick works best for seamers who naturally angle the ball into the batsman, but it can work for anyone. Your aim is to bowl a ball that, after pitching, will hit the batter on their thigh pad.

Why?
