When opening the bowling, I focus on getting the ball up to gauge how much swing I can generate. There’s a risk involved, as overpitching can easily allow the batsman to drive me down the ground.

To be honest, I really dislike getting driven for runs, so I tend to hit back of a length rather than going to full.

As an opening bowler, it’s important to hold your nerve. If you concede a few boundaries off well-executed balls, keep your head up. Remember, the batsman is facing you, you are not just bowling to the batsman; this mindset helps maintain your aggression throughout the spell.

🚨Stay tuned for an explanation on how to shape the ball both ways coming soon!🚨

Use my code CARMI and you can get $50!

One of the hardest parts of coaching isn’t always the coaching itself, it’s all the other stuff running through your head at the same time.

Payments, sessions, messages, client credits… there’s always something to keep track of.

ForActive has just made that side of things a lot easier for me, so when I’m coaching, I can actually focus on coaching.

Use code CARMI when you get started with ForActive.

If you’re a coach running your own business, it’s made managing the admin side a whole lot simpler for me, less time chasing payments and sessions, more time actually coaching.

Comment “Bowl” and I’ll send you the full YouTube breakdown. 🎥

Your run-up sets up everything that happens at the crease.

If you’re constantly changing it, struggling with rhythm, or just guessing where to start from, this is how I’d build it.

Batting ability: questionable. Bat: definitely not.

Huge thanks to @beastsportsusa for the continued support and for making sure I at least look the part at No. 11 taken in California by @carmi_lr83

Slow = fast. Fast = slow.

When we get into the strongest possible position at the crease, it can almost feel like our actions are being delayed, but that gives us time to transfer force properly and put more behind the ball.

When we rush through the crease, it might feel fast because everything is happening quickly, but we often lose our shape, stability and connection. The result? Less force behind the ball and usually less pace.

A few things to think about:

• Create time at the crease: Don’t confuse rushing with speed.

• Strong positions allow force transfer: From the ground, through the hips and trunk, and into the ball.

• Let the sequence happen: When everything fires at once, we leave pace on the table.

• The ball doesn’t care how fast your body felt: It only responds to how much force and speed you can transfer into it.

Sometimes, to bowl faster, you need to feel slower.

This is one of my favorite drills for getting into a strong, powerful position at the crease. 👊🏽

Focus on these key cues:

✅ Drive your back knee forward to get your momentum moving towards the batter.
✅ Land on the ball of your back foot to stay tall and avoid sinking into the crease.
✅ Push off your toes to keep your energy moving forward.
✅ Reach your front arm and front leg forward to create a long, strong position.
✅ Finish by driving your front elbow into your rib while punching your front foot into the ground.

That final movement helps you get over your front leg, creating a powerful snap through release and allowing you to transfer force into the ball.

Master the position first, then let the pace come naturally. 💥
