 Introduction

The concept of the cricket-pitching machine provides accurate and consistent batting practice
for cricketers of all standard. It is a best cricket practice facility available to all cricketers at
an affordable price, which have recognized a very tangible and enjoyable way to improve
batting performance. Since the successful launch of the first BOLA in 1985 which was
purchased by Surrey Country Cricket Club and shortly afterward the England Test Side,
Stuart & Williams. And this have encourage other for continuous improvement and
development of this dynamic instrument (thus to us also). The main mechanism of the
machine consist of two heavy wheels, Between 30 and 55cm in diameter with rubber tires,
each rotated by its own electric motor. These are fixed on a frame such that the wheels are in
same plane with a sliding arrangement, about 8cm apart. The slider block can slide over the
base members by means of a screw and nut mechanism, which is attached at each end of the
base member for accommodating balls of different diameters.
The whole assembly is fixed on a other frame so that the plane of the wheels is roughly at the
height that a typical bowler would release the ball. The motors are typically powered by a DC
source, and can be rotated in opposite directions. A controller allows variation of the speed of
each wheel, allowing the machine to be slowed down for less experienced batsmen and swing
bowling can also be achieved.

 Principle

Bowling Machines are one of the most useful pieces of equipment for batsmen in training and
a modern cricket bowling machine is very versatile. All speeds and styles of bowling can be
mimicked so let’s take a closer look at how it all works.
