Quick Tip: Get Self-Centred at Nets (And Get Everyone Else Equally Egotistic)
Nowadays you have a powerful camera built in to your smartphone. Are you using it at nets?
I have noticed that players love to see themselves bat and bowl, but they rarely film themselves, unless a coach instigates it. Yet the power of video is great.
When you see yourself bowl a yorker, or hit a four you feel great. When you watch back and spot a technical issue you can go and work hard on ironing it out when you most likely don't believe it when your mate tells you.
So, film yourself as much as you can.
How to Coach Confidence and Reduce Anxiety
Nomaan sent in a great question to the Pitchvision Cricket Show last week. It revolved around his lack of confidence, increased anxiety levels and being unable to transfer his considerable practice skills into a match context.
Ultimately he had lost "that loving feeling" for the game.

Overcome Cricket Nerves with a Mental Net
One of the biggest problems faced by cricketers is the nerves before playing. But what if I told you worrying in the right way is perfect for getting you through a tough game?
We all worry, and that worry is usually fearing the worst. Everyone has had the moment where they wonder if they will get out first ball. It's usually around the time you are in next. It's uncomfortable and it makes you nervy at the crease, stopping you play your natural game.
So, switch the worry to focus on what you can do instead.
You can still worry, it's just you can make it productive instead of being filled with panic.
