Product Overview
The Crick Attack is a high-performance cricket bowling machine engineered to replicate the experience of facing a live bowler. Its patented vision technology uses a measured ball chute so batsmen can track the ball uninterrupted through to delivery, allowing natural trigger movements and improved timing instead of the rushed reactions typical of conventional machines.
Unlike most competitor machines, the Crick Attack uses genuine leather cricket balls, giving batsmen authentic bat feel and immediate feedback on whether they have middled the shot. It can also run synthetic dimple balls, and the specially formulated wheel compound is designed to handle leather without damaging the ball, lasting more than 10 years of use.
At the heart of the machine is a three-wheel throwing system that pinches the ball at three points, giving coaches independent control over velocity and revolutions in 3D. This enables seam-up deliveries and realistic swing bowling simply by adjusting the three dials, height lever and direction lever, with no need to tilt or slope the machine head.
Three independently controlled high-powered motors push deliveries up to 100+ MPH, while quick horizontal head movement between balls keeps batters alert and unable to anticipate the next delivery. The throwing head is built from heat-treated, weather-resistant aluminum alloy, and the frame is powder-coated rust-proof steel for long-term durability in outdoor training environments.
Designed for efficient, high-volume practice sessions, the Crick Attack moves on and off the field easily by tilting the unit, un-socketing the legs, and rolling it on its two heavy-duty transporting wheels. Optional accessories include a Solo Feeder with 15-ball capacity for adjustable-interval automatic feeding, and a weatherproof premium cover for storage and transport.
