Kwik Cricket
Taken to Kwik cricket of late trying to get the boys into batting and fielding more and it seems to be working and the boys from the field last year have joined in tonight over at the paddock. I scored the most runs even with my gammy leg and the majority of the runs were scored by just fending the ball forward so that the bowler was the best option to collect the ball, which gave me enough time to make the singles. The idea is that this will reinforce some of the stuff they're learning at B&PCC over at Mopsies. I noticed that Mike Blerkham batted a few runs last Monday, but the emphasis of what he was doing was good communication between the batsman and just stabbing the ball into the middle of the wicket and taking the singles. So hopefully either Ben or Joe will see that to make runs you only need to defend the ball and play it into the middle of the wicket......
