"If you can find some fast bowlers, let's see how well the batsmen can handle it", this saying is adapted from a Cricket Documentary Film entitled Fire In Babylon. So, for those who don't know what cricket really is, just continue scrolling. Haha xD Actually, nothing to say but there is a hidden mark that lies behind this game. Just a short explanation, a "bowler" has to bowl a cricket ball and aim for stumps (three standing so-called sticks). If the "batsman" couldn't hit the ball which was bowled by the bowler just now and at the same time, the ball hit the stumps, then he'll be out of the game (the batsman). I went for Perak Centralized Training for U-17 at Kinrara Oval, Home of Malaysian Cricket. There were 2 phases and I attended both of it. During the training sessions, I learnt a lot and some of it did make me realise of my wrongly applied technique in cricket especially on batting skills. Before that, forget about the "hidden mark" I said just now. :P So, the best part of this training was each player would receive some money as allowance. Hehe, don't have to mention about the amount. My coach was a great player, I mean Perak Coach (my school don't have a coach >.< yet*). He already played for Malaysia Senior Team when he was 17-years-old, yup Nazmi Faiz Mansor's partner and his name is Andy. There also, I met Perak Cricket Association President (PCA), Mr Iqbal. These are the main heads for this training program. And below are some pictures during the training.
In Action (Y).
Schedule, pretty packed with different sessions.
In Action, again.
Here it is, the big guys, Coach Andy (in yellow), Mr Iqbal (the other one).
With all the new techniques and skills that I've learnt, I hope to improve more than just pretending that I'm applying the right techniques. And not to forget, out of 11 who went for the training,only 4 Malays, no Chinese and the others? Yep, Indians. But still, as a team, we do understand and respect each other. So, that's all relating to my sport. Thanks for reading. :D
