Thought I'd give a quick diary on my season 2008.

Have had three in-school training sessions and one school match (just a squad match against each other)

The first two Friday sessions were about finding some rhythm with my bowling and batting, and, it gradually improved - with some spells of good (and some of badish) bowling and batting.

Last Weds we played a match at school between the members of our squad - didn't really do much to be honest. Although strangely batted at number 4 and got a 10 ball duck (although played the best I have technically played). Didn't get a chance to bowl.

Today we had a nets session from 4 till 5 and I really started to find some excellent bowling rhythm as the leg-spin bowling was finally come back to some of its old form - I also managed to bowl a couple of variation balls (straight one :p) and a couple of flighted slower balls with spin and bounce got me 3 stumping wickets. I also got a wicket (LBW) off of a ball that didnt turn (foxed him :p) and got a couple of (likely) catches - so it was a very productive day in the bowling department, with my bowling being a lot tighter and more confident than previously.

No batting today unfortunately.

More to come...
 
Fantastic to hear. Nothing better then watching a spinner use flight, bounce, and guile to pick up a wicket :). That's what cricket is all about!
 
sounds good mate hoping the leggies keep going well....if you bowl with that simple variation you should pick up plenty of wickets this season :p
