One of the fitness features of the Apple Watch is an app that tracks how much you stand up. Think that won't help your cricket? think again.

There is no doubt that technology is an important part of cricket, even at grass-roots level. That means when Apple make a product announcement, players and coaches interested in getting an edge should listen to what they have to say.

Yesterday, Apple announced the iPhone 6, 6 Plus and Apple Watch.

Look at the track record of technology in cricket, and Apple in particular, and you can see it's ever growing influence. Coaches and scorers have iPads, players use iPhones and other smart phones as the most portable of computers. Add to this innovations like bowling machines and PitchVision and you see that technology is already a huge part of cricket.

So, the important question is; do these new devices signal a change in the landscape, and if so how can you tap into their power?

Cricket is awesome. More cricket is more awesome, right?

Wrong.

If you want to be a cricketer, there is a balance to be had between playing, practising and doing something else completely. We know from the top level that burnout is a very real issue.

And it can happen to you as well.

Here is how you can use the power of rest and recovery to become a more powerful player.

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've got a good leg break with lots of side spin, and a pretty decent top spinner, but I find it really hard to bowl the googly, can anyone give me some suggestions?"

Listen to the panels answer to his question here.

Mark Garaway is a busy man. So busy, they only way we could get him on this week's show was to call him up while driving between appointments. With his phone on 9% battery and shooting along at precisely 70mph, will we make it to the end of the show with him?

David Hinchliffe and Sam Lavery shore things up in the studio as we talk about the use and misuse of stats in cricket, bowling googlies and how to find your perfect setup.
