Part of the problem with the Marshfield middle order seems to be that Gareth and Hugh don't bat well together. Both like to soak up lots of deliveries.

[@micz8376]

That's why there's so many power hitters in that side to balance out the amount of dog balls that they soak up, they're just afraid to hit the ball

[@tinkertailor7385]

Too many people are not giving the bowlers credit.... Some here seem to forget that the bowlers get have a say. The pitch was not easy to bat on. The other side collapsed, not because they are "Bad Batters". T'was the bowling and the pitch.

[@alrounder8025]

Jeez watching your recent videos remind me of periods where I really couldn’t buy runs and I remember how anxious and nervous it used to make me for matches coming up knowing how terribly out of form I was. Can’t wait to see you get out of this rut

I rarely subscribe to anything, even canyoucricket, and never comment on anything. However, I feel compelled to do so watching your struggles this season. I took up playing cricket again in NZ after a 30 year hiatus, largely as a result of watching your you tube channel. I've never been happier. I'm the least well qualified to comment on the issues you've faced this season. However, regardless of how your season goes, I thought you might like to know the impact that your channel has had on an average Joe out there in the world. Wishing you all the best.

[@JonathanPatel-bs8ut]

It will come Gareth chin up lad. It’s the highs and lows of cricket bud. You’re one good shot away from being back in form. Great win. 💪💪💪

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

The bowling side pulled it out of the bag. Despite your struggles the videos are still entertaining. I had a howling season like that once and in the end the selectors did me the biggest favour by letting me pillage easier runs and regain my confidence in the seconds for the rest of my season. The following year was one of my best for the 1st's - at a pretty decent standard. I would start tryign to use that sweep that you spent so much time learning in India - a new shot option may ring the change???

[@jonnyhawkins7744]

All that time in India Gareth and no sweeping? Tut tut.

[@alrounder8025]

Gotta be cause he’s so out of form and lacking confidence. But surely worth sweeping deliveries pitched fairly outside off which have little chance of hitting the stumps or getting you out lbw

Going through a rut with the bat and/or the ball is almost a rite of passage. I have noticed you don't tend to be the strongest off your pads, maybe that's an area that could be developed.

[@galvatronprime5570]

James Williams seems such a talented guy but doesn’t seem to take himself or his ability seriously! Behind Jez Bond this guy is legit, a proper run at 4 with his head screwed firmly on and this guy get bags full! Hit it so clean, be great in the club house on the beer for sure 👌

[@listey]

Meanwhile Gareth takes himself far too seriously. It's clear who gets better results.

[@quantumsingularitystudios1772]

The struggle up until that lovely cut shot was a journey and a half! I'm not sure, but from your perspective cam it feels like your body position is a little cramped up, it might just be form and lack of confidence but especially when the ball is coming back into you on a good or just short of a good length. The lefty was bowling wheels and it is natural when the ball they are digging it up into your ribs across you. But the other guy was bowling such juicy length little out swingers and I could feel your body position was really causing you to drag a lot of the motions you have with your wrists and you couldn't get it away, even a pressure release noodle across the line into the on side if you can open up and move your feet a bit more (not just charge lol). All of this is probably just another post of noise, but I can feel the grind you're on mate especially in the first person. Keep working hard, try and get a little looser in the hips and opened up a bit more. 👍

[@tysondog843]

That's actually a good pick up. I've retired from playing now, but I had the same issue, and simply opening up my stance a bit made a big difference. I Loved the cut and off drive, but opening up my stance opened the on-drive and more control over the pull shot, where I felt I had more time. Your point about the ball coming back in was true for me, and opening up my stance a little made that delivery a Lot more comfortable to play. I was feeling cramped up, and your point about the wrists made me remember, that's what I was doing. I was trying to use my wrists to hit the ball too square. You gave good advise, I hope Gareth reads it.

[@The_Ultimate_Gent]

That ball to get the first wicket @13.05... WOW! That's getting most test batters out!

[@DSando14]

[@TimmyOtherGuy-gs2rp]

Keep persevering Gareth, big knocks around the corner don’t get down on yourself, I’m out of form myself at the moment so we all have good patches and bad patches and unfortunately we are both stuck in a bad one, but keep persevering and a 50 isn’t far away

[@1littlelee]

the bowlers know where to bowl with you, straight or out towards off side, guaranteed to strangle you for runs!

[@mohammedalikhan6381]

Keep going Gareth. Some nice shots. Try and rotate the strike and take pressure off yourself. The more dot balls you face the more your mind starts to panic.

[@Toxicw4ste666]

Gareth I’d advise you drop down a level and get some confidence up cuz ur batting in this 1st team has been average at best so I’d say try get some confidence back up and you can then score more freely cuz ur missing out on a lot of balls especially in this game you missed out on so many no trying to bring hate just offering advice

[@RobboOutdoors]

G'day mate. Just a question are you ever under any selection stress? Is there a weekly selection meeting or anyone pressing from the 2nds? Not just you but the other boys not scoring runs? Just asking from a coaching point of view and also interested to hear if you have any 'low runs grace period' before you get the tap?

[@Debbiebabe69]

At this level of cricket, 'selection stress' for someone batting top 4 in a premier team is pretty none existent. Teams usually struggle for 1st team standard players these days but have plenty of 2s or below standard. He is good enough to stay in the 1s, even if it means dropping down as low as 8 or 9 - or even all the way to jack. The only way hes going in the twos is if he asks the skipper himself.

[@tysondog843]

Playing up a year? Well done!

[@OllieWaters-m1g]

Ive just noticed (I'm not pro of cricket or anything) but on some front foot shots your reaching forward with your head still behind and your front foot further back than it should. It could be the gopro angle but that's just what I think. Still a solid innings though 👌.

[@charitharanasingha]

My 2 cents :) I can see when you get stuck you are trying to block the ball a lot, I think instead, try to get some different ways to get runs like moving in the crease or coming down the pitch (If the keeper is not up) etc to make sure the bowler will not keep bowling to the same areas and you keep blocking, so that's a way you can get a single and make sure you are rotating the strike and get rid of the dot ball pressure :). Because I used to play like that sometimes ago with the idea that I could catch up those dot balls later, but once it reaches some point then when I'm trying to go for big shots to catch them, and since I have been on the crease for sometimes the fitness level also low at that point so my big shots were not that much effective as it is and getting out, so then I realized to keep busy at the crease after first 4-5 balls and it worked out well. BTW I am not a pro player 😄 to advice you, but just thought to let you know to try this method :)

[@chaoslegend953]

Why are so many people hating rn? You’ve seen Gareth make runs. The point of the channel is to show the highs and the lows. If you want to watch professionals, watch international cricket. Keep doing what you’re doing Gareth. Love watching and supporting you on Patreon

Nothing wrong with commenting on what we are seeing. If he plays like shit he'll be called on it. For the most part it is constructive criticism. If he plays well he'll be congratulated. That's cricket for you. The people blowing smoke up his arse aren't doing him any favours.

[@mrrobot84]

keep doing what your doing? so not scoring runs?

[@weekender8839]

I’d argue that the level Gareth was playing at previously at Woodhall Spa is better than this. Different style of cricket. There are no Carter’s or PJs in this league, but I think that more expansive shot playing cricketers will prosper.

[@Karugamez]

i agree with this comment alot

[@TSOTL-0302]

That's because at Woodhall Spa he was playing in the ECB Lincolnshire Premier League. Which is obviously the highest standard in club cricket (behind regional County level) The league he's playing for Marsfield is 2 times below the ECB West of England Premier League Premier One level on the pyramid.

[@danutta-hw3yr]

Time for 2s gazlar

[@homepitchgames8913]

Just an advice Gareth . When you are struggling with timing play more spinners during your practice because it is harder to time spinners but once you do you will gain great confidence. Also think about any change in your pre match routine,those things also matter

[@mrg-cardcollector6601]

Need to rotate the strike mate. Getting too bogged down! Putting too much pressure on the batters coming in.

[@punt3rplays]

you gotta watch those out swingers and cutters like at 6:25 cuz those were close to getting your nick. I would suggest maybe moving your head a bit more forward so that you're not so much reaching out with your hand and bat in front and rather have it closer to under your chin. That way, if it cuts out or stays straight, you can have more control with your bat and respond accordingly. Just a suggestion, try it out in the nets! Keep working hard, big tons are nearby!

Head up mate, Nice gritty win though. enjoy it with the team. 2 cents take/leave it: Try standing taller in your batting stance and get your hands moving while the bowler is running in. Should help increase your arc and start pinging the ball with a bit more power & boost the confidence. Good luck for the rest of the season. 👍

[@jakhodgkins8806]

Got to be putting away some of the freebies in the on side mate, sitting up and soaking up balls. Sometimes the only way to get out of a dry spell is throw your hands and bat your way out.

[@salvificblood]

Gareth, I believe you need to forget about strike rates and enjoy playing your game, which is not to hit the leather off everything, but to bat long. If you finish an innings with a strike rate of 60-70, and you have posted a half century or more, that will be more than good enough in your team, as you have more than enough power players to complement you. It's OK sometimes to be 10 off 40. If you finish 60/70 off 100/110, you will have anchored very nicely for your team. Forget strike rates. Multiple half centuries with the odd century in a season will contribute to your team winning more games. The more you listen to all the negative comments about strike rate, the more youwill tighten up and repeat a nightmare at the crease. Just enjoy batting.

[@jeepaaaz]

I think you should try a different approach and come out all guns blazing, no leaves of defensive strokes. Charge the quicks try something new

I don't know why I always feel the need to litter the comments section with personal anecdotes (I'll claim it's to help the KZbin algorithm), but here's another; the coldest I've ever been at a cricket match was at Warminster in an early April pre-season game. It was 8 degrees outside, and I believe minus 8 degrees in the scorebox. At least it felt like it was. Good to see you having a longer innings, shame about the dismissal but that bowler did have some decent pace.

[@canyoucricket]

Yes I remember a practice in April a couple years ago where it was actually snowing!

[@ilioneld]

Meh 16 of 40 odd isnt too bad considering no one on either side at any stage had any sense of timming and also 140 ended up being pretty comfortable winning total in the end. The pitch was sticky and moving through out itll be hard for most to find their timming, id rather Gareth play those 40 odd balls and prolong the innings rather than sky one on his 10th ball playing against the conditions and being bowled out for 90 odd
