Dunno EB, had a big summer watching a lot of junior cricket, including a fair bit of rep stuff. The platitudes seem to go to the kids who flashily slog the the ball around, but the top scorers and better teams played correct cricket. People get caught up by those types that go big score X X X X big score,
whereas teams with more consistency seem to win more. Fireworks are entertaining, but accumulators/risk aversive batters do better. Likewise, the bowlers who stuck to the basics did better than the kids doing funky stuff or bowling express they can't control. I live in hope EB. Technique still has a place.
