Should You Bowl at Batsmen in Nets?
Every team has one.
The staunch one. The guy who says bowlers should always bowl at batsmen in nets. It more realistic and anyway, nets are more for batsman than for bowlers.

Worse; there is nothing you can do about it while the staunch one looms over you telling you to pitch it up and give the batsman a chance to work on driving.

How to Reach Your Genetic Potential for Cricket
Is there anything more tragic than the talented player who wastes his ability?
This person plays effortlessly when everything is working, but too many days on the pitch are missed with low scores or average bowling spells. If you can sum it up in one word it's "enigmatic".
