Why Cricket is not in Olympics?

Where can I find coaching sessions for a 10 year old that has never played cricket before (Dad has)

What is the yoker ball in cricket

at what age can my son start cricket coaching sessions? he is 4

Im coaching an under 9's team ( GOD HELP ME!) and all though i have played extensively i have not coached such a young team before. Can anyone advise on a training plan designed for beginners / young players. Some ideas on how to make it fun and keep them interested would be great... thanks in advance.

How do you play cricket? What is cricket? Is it like rugby?

I am starting a cricket after school club for ks2 how is there a step by step guide to help the children use the correct bowling technique and also is there a good technique to stop the ball whilst fielding

how do you practice your batting skills,by the way ive done cricket for just over a year now but I haven't been on top of my cricket skills as much as ive also had other commitements such as karate and aslo I had a fondness for badminton during the last winter so the only time I trainedwas really the last years seaon but the traing I did was self made and was in the park as my school cricket team cant really afford enough equipment to train the rest of the team (The team is makeshift by the way).all I did in the park was bowling to my friend who would devlop his batting skills by just tying to find a way of hitting the ball so this is th e reason why im asking you first how can I develop my batting skills and secondly what drills do you do individually and as a team which makes you and your players good?

Hi I have my first lesson with my team and like some help with some drills for new players. How do i start the practice? They never played so i have to start from scratch.Thank you lucinda Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

planning an "open house" type of session or event where interested kids will walk in for learning more about cricket and from here expectation is that they may join our regular coaching program. Trying to learn idea as to what activities should I consider for such event?

I am going to be taking on my first serious school coaching role at under 15B level. My number one priority will be setting the right tone during the intro session to get the season of to the right start. Do you have any tips? Thanks and best wishes, Luke K.

what's the grip for hitchhkers thumb?

hi!! to all my dear coaches and people assosiated with this website. i am 20 years old and i am a right arm medium fast bowler and a right arm middle order batsmen from india. i like to hit the ball all over the park as i am a natural hitter of the cricket ball.well i am facing problems with my bowling action as i am not able to practice every day, so there is always gap of 2 or 3 days between my practice sessions,so whenever i go and start bowling in the nets i always get confused and sometimes i even have to start allover again starting from my action!!!i even dont have a coach but i am determined to make to my international squad,every one laughs at me when i say this to them.i have never played a single match till now with the proper cricket ball.but i am hugely appreciated in the nets while i am bowling, as i can swing the bowl both ways with an average speed of 115-120kmph.here in india its very hard for a young player to come up in this game even if he has loads of talent,but no money,i am not even allowed to get into the nets when other clubs are practicing, beacause of that i have to practice before they come, that is from morning 4.00am to 6.00am.and i have to study as well because i am computer science engineer, which is a huge mental pressure as well,so i am not able to practice every day.well thats not an execuse for me though, because no matter how hard it gets i am gonna make to the IPL(indian premier league)and then to my international team.and just a month ago i have been picked by a new local club who were quite impressed by me,i played my first practice match against our oppositon club of under 23 age group,i scored 16 balls 42runs,and got 4 wickets of my four overs and concided 11 runs so i am really happy, i was able to swing the ball both the ways but my problem is whenever there is break in my practice session,as other club people dont allow me in the nets. i cant take my run up properly and i tend to change my action from side on to front on which decreses my speed . so plss give some sugessions on 1.how to take my run up properly. 2.how to increase my bowling speed. 3.how to bowl accurately without changing my action.

I'm coaching an u/14 cricket team and none of these boys have ever played the game let alone held a cricket bat. Help!!

i am trying to perfect a new trigger movement and am undecided as to whether changing is a good idea. last season i missed out on a lot of drives and decided this season to try the forward press instead of usually just standing still what would your advice be?

My son is getting caught out on the leading edge when trying to hit through the on side. Any quick fixes???
