Cricket Practice: Fast bowling
Introduction
Some of the most frequent questions I get asked at CricketSecrets.com are to do with fast bowling. They go something like this: ‘Ian, how do I bowl fast’, ‘tell me how to bowl at 90mph’. But before we get to the technicalities of how to bowl seriously fast, the question which every budding fast bowler should consider is; ‘can anybody bowl fast (85-95+ mph)?’
As you may expect, such a question does not promote a clear or easy answer. Only a handful of the game’s top players have succeeded in breaching the illusive 90mph barrier; so clearly it represents a considerable and admirable achievement. Yet whether this limited, elite group can be broadened to include you or any other aspiring fast bowler remains to be seen.
The following article looks at some of the principal arguments of both sides of the debate. We start with the pro-fast bowling notion (that anyone can bowl fast), and then look at the contrarian argument (only an elite few can bowl fast), before drawing some conclusions.
Brett Lee demonstrates the huge forces involved in fast bowling (1)
“Yes, with the correct resources and attitude to training any cricketer can become a fast bowler.”
As with all aspects of the cricket, technique can be learned and improved to optimise a player’s natural ability. If this is done to the greatest possible extent, then potentially bowling speeds of 85 to 90mph+ should not be attainable only for a select few?

BATTING
Now that we have learnt the correct batting and bowling techniques, it's time to get out into the field and learn how to stop those balls from running wild. Ryan Maron teaches us the correct fielding rules and techniques.

Fast Bowling Tips
Efficiency
Your body is as efficient as you make it. If you are stressed out by work/school and sit on the sofa in the evenings eating crisps you end up tired, overweight and hunched over. If you train regularly, activate your cricket playing muscles and feel relaxed about things you become an efficient athlete.
