The stats behind the stories.
"The Merlyn simulator was the only place I faced genuine Rangana Herath-style variations before my county trial. I walked in knowing I'd handled worse."
"Wicket's video analysis showed me my front foot was a full 4 inches short of where I thought it was. Fixed it in six sessions. Hit 62 in my next league game."
"He was petrified of the ball when we arrived. After the Easter camp, he was asking to bowl at the machine on his own. The coaches just get kids."
