It is pretty worrying, but he's done well to score in his first game
Does the team have a slip cradle?

I've been playing for over 25 years
and the day you stop being nervous when batting is the day you become complacent.

We haven't got a cradle, but we've got one of those catching net things. One thing we don't practice enough is fielding, which I'm constantly banging on about.

We bought a bowling machine last season, which is great, but unfortunately our bowling has suffered a bit as the bowlers aren't practicing enough.

Ahh, that's not good
Spending time on the slip cradle was great fun, but didn't half teach quicker reflexes. And none of using those orange balls either, it's cork or nothing.

The team we played at the weekend had a cradle
I was all for bundling it into the back of the car, but no one was prepared to cause a diversion.
