In this LEGEND/ICON episode we chat with England hero, ICC cricketer of the year 2011 Jonathan Trott!

We are so pleased to get our former teammate on the show. Trotty is a fantastic batter who has had an awesome career and although he isnt an out and out bowler his insights are great to hear. He also happens to be a great storyteller. Trotty is the current Afghanistan head coach so as well as having a steller playing career  he is able to to give us a unique perspective on bowling with his head coach hat on!

We discuss the best bowler Trotty has faced and why. What the difference is between a county and test bowler. Which bowlers Trotty finds hardest to face and we also discuss that incident at the T20 world cup!

In this guest episode we talk with our old teammate Oli Hannon-Dalby.

OHD is one of the best pros we know and was a superb teammate. There is some great advice in this show in amongst all the old stories we probably get carried away discussing!

We talk about how OHD's game has evolved over the years to where he is now one of the leading bowling in the county championship. We discuss his thoughts on wobble seam and how he utilises it, as well as his tips for taller bowlers!

In this episode we discuss trailing!

The reality for most cricketers is that at some point you will have a trial of some sort. We both trialled, at Middlesex and Warwickshire respectively. There are definitely some do's and don'ts!

This episode should help you navigate that process and give you some handy tips! We also share a couple funny stories!

In this special guest episode we chat with sports aerodynamicist and data analyst Aaron Briggs!

What an unbelievable guest Aaron is! He reached out after listening to our episode on swing. We had to get him on the podcast to share his incredible knowledge and set the record straight about how and why a cricket ball swings! He did a PHD at Cambridge Uni on the aerodynamics of swing bowling.

We discuss everything to do with swing. How to look after the ball, what atmospheric conditions help swing, the optimal pace to suit the air temperature. Aaron also drops quite a few theories. This episode is full of mind blowing stuff!

Aaron has a blog Aaron Briggs | Substack well worth checking out! He is also on linkedIn and Twitter (x) as ABriggsCricket
