Cricket Show 260: Competition Winner
This week's winner of the Cricket Show podcast question competition is Graeme. He wins a free coaching course from PitchVision Academy.
The winning question was:
" I am a South African cricketer who is currently playing cricket in South Africa and as an overseas Pro in Scotland. I am looking at spending a summer in Australia to experience the cricket and culture. I am a University graduate in Sports Management. I have since spent the summers playing cricket and working as a coach. I have also spent my winters in the UK as a player-coach in which I have had a lot of success. Very simply, in your opinion, is there room for someone like myself to find an opportunity in Australia to work and experience cricket for the summer? Furthermore is there a particular role that I should look to pursue?"
Listen to the panels answer to his question here.

Streetwise Bowling: Around the Legs
This article is part of the "Streetwise Bowling" series from PitchVision Academy. To view the full list of tactics click here. This tactic has been provided by Spin Coach, Menno Gazendam.
Bowling leg breaks to a batsman with a weak spot on his legs?
Don't just go the obvious route and pitch every ball outside of leg stump.
The batsman will know what is going on and just pad you safely away. Instead, work him over by getting him to come forward, then surprising him with a big turner outside leg.
