With Potts being talked about as being due his England debut, what I love about this video is his intensity. You can tell the other two are enjoying it and playing the game, but Potts is putting in maximum effort. Love seeing a player who is fired up every time they play.
I've faced a few bowlers that quick in my career and the key thing is, DON'T PANIC - if you get in a mental state, your feet go towards square leg, you tense up and you play it poorly. Trust your eye - if you're concentrating, you should pick it up early and your brain will choose the right shot based on experience. I remember bricking it when I was young against anything genuinely quick but with experience I relaxed and trusted myself, then I found I could cope with it and perhaps even score a few.
Pro's at the level of Potts are trained to bowl a top of off stump line that most amateurs aren't good enough to nick or play. Had Potts have sent down 6 Yorkers at 86 mph, he had cleaned up.
It really shows the gap between village and pro cricket . Speed , cunning and accuracy are the attributes of the pro . Swing high , swing low the villager
@@bt1831 😂😂 Well I have played. You don't have to prove a random person anything by uploading videos on TH-cam. I respect your opinion though. Not easy but not that difficult to face 85 KMPH if you ask someone who plays the sport. You just need to overcome the fear of getting hit
Hey Toby im from India I love ur videos so much,if any chance I want to play in ur team,I want to play with you guys ,in September I'm coming to England for my master's,if u ok I will play for ur team
Hey! Can you explain the lack of performances from English team recently? Is it lack of talent? Or mismanagement from Cricket board? Maybe you can throw some light on it. Cricket in general would benefit from strong English team (and other non Asian teams too). Cheers!
Too much emphasis on limited overs cricket where England are arguably still the best in the world (both 20 and 50 overs). England have plenty of talent, but County Cricket is on its arse and no-one is interested in it. This is a problem as, honestly, the only thing that really matters to any English cricketer or fan is winning an Ashes test series. Nobody is bothered about playing India or Pakistan in tests, it is all about our brotherly rivalry with Australia.
Now Potts is taking 3 wickets at lords for England against New Zealand

Well Potts just got the England call up, which makes this even more memorable for them I imagine :)
God I've seen a lot of Cricket in my time but Potts is pure class! Going to be a great asset to Durham and England.
these are just the best videos. living the dream ....they keep feeding your reverse 😆
Thanks so much mate!
You guys aren't true village cricketers - you turned up on time and with the correct kit
And they aren’t hungover
We were 10 minute late and had to share cricket kit... so that's pretty village!
@@CricketDistrict That's more like it. Hopefully there was meant to be 3 of you and someone cancelled at the last minute.
@@oliverstretch3841 Ah! You got there before me: spoilsport!
Ha ha
Nicely filmed and you guys faced them really well, lots of love from 🇮🇳
Thanks so much, Prateek!
Am so impressed by pots. Great lad. So quick he bowls. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now matt potts is international player he had performed very well in his debut match vs nz
Think I’d be going for the “close your eyes and hope for the best” tactic against the seamer’s!
haha that was our tactic too!
Jack going places that Kane Williamson never could

Brilliant as always! Loving this series 🔥
Thanks so much for watching!
This is 🔥🔥🔥
Ah Yes Fellow South African
As I'm seeing this matty potts just got picked for England test squad 😀
That would have been such a cool experience.
Open your eyes watch the ball😂😂😂
Got a running theme of leggies going on this series. Matt Parky next time maybe… 👀
Great idea, thanks Eddie!
Brilliant video that. Great stuff!
Thank you Michael!
Well done Toby.
Where was that reverse sweep a few years ago??
Finally it is here........... amazing ❤️❤️
Thanks for watching, Aman!
Played Potts better than the NZ top order
Village, club, minor counties, county then test. I can't see these two playing village cricket. They're fairly decent club players at least.
It really shows the gap between village and pro cricket .
Speed , cunning and accuracy are the attributes of the pro .
Swing high , swing low the villager
Great vid lads keep it up
Thanks so much Seb!
Get Potts in the title!
Great content👍
Thanks JP!
Love from 🇮🇳,i like your channel ❤️🙏🏻
Very very interesting videos and well played
Thank you!
Well done guys, add a front facing camera filming down the pitch
Thanks for watching, Atharvan! Great idea, we might need another camera!
You guys should try and face umraan Malik once 150 is his regular
Love ❤ from India 🇮🇳 I am also a villager.....
Matty Potts has just taken 3 wickets against the black caps
More of this
More on the way, Luke! C
Why are you not showing view from batsman go pro
Very nice video you guys played very well
I also watched your 1 episode where you faced rashid khan love from India🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thanks for watching IGH!
Fantastic Video!!!!
Thanks AB Sports!
Just wondering if you gonna face jasprit bumrah 🤣
I wanted to see the Village guys bowl to the Pros.
"Up and coming" bowler Matthew Potts made his test debut 2 months later....
You batted well mate
Thanks Desi!
Matty Potts not thrilled about thay attempts ramp....
World class videos every time
What happens if there was Andre Russell in the crease 🤩🤩 he might sure that he will definitely score 60-70 runs
How much is the neon cricket bat
Well when you have fielder around
Than pressure is on another level
Superb vid's.. you guys smashing it
As i said before though, you are definitely not village👍
Thanks so much, Richard! Glad you're enjoying the videos.
What club do you guys play for?
Even with the wind, Potts, for all his skills... is not and will never be a 90mph bowler. That looked low 80s tops
Nice work bro
Thanks Mohammed!
These guys make cricket look so tough. It isn't so.
haha thanks for watching, Durga!
@@CricketDistrict
@@CricketDistrict who do you play for
Sorry, which team do you play for again? Why don't you upload some videos facing 90mph bowling if it's so easy? 😂
@@bt1831 😂😂 Well I have played. You don't have to prove a random person anything by uploading videos on TH-cam.

Hey Vamsi! Awesome, would love to get you involved!
Matt Potts I believe has a sport scholarship at my school
Bro you played well iam from India iam big fan of the cricket you see ipl
Thanks Gowtham!
@@CricketDistrict thanks for the reply
Is anyone else here after Matthew Potts played his first game for England
I don’t know too many village players who can play shots like that…or know all the slang. What village are we on about? Durham?
Since my doggos name is tobby i always wanted toby to win 😊 🏆
toby looks like marnus labuschane
Man said beautiful chester le street mate I live here it’s a shit hole
Stop backing
Away

@@andreashessler838 just dropping a comment to remind you guys how the tables turned within two months.
Dont rub it haha
At most it looks early 80's, no way is that a 90mph bowler.
👍👍👍👍
What he didn’t realise he batted against a England pro
No runnn
It’s funny how your technique breaks down when all you need to do is play the same way you always do and just adjust to the extra speed
Do Shaheen Afridi
Aussie adition
🐐💯🙌☺️
How old is the lad who bowled pace
Yes potty😂
Don’t recon matty Potts has bowled at 90mph in his life
Does Potts smoke Pot?
Wts the point of hving head cam if you weren't planning to show tht view. 👎
Those guys are too thin to be village cricketers.
3rd ball was definitely a wide for height.
May be u haven't seen bumrah bowling
The worst village players you guys picked.😭😭
Now try and think about the difference between an average batsman or someone like babar or kohli who literally eat 150+ bowlers for breakfast

90mph is a lie I guess, Potts is kinda bowling at around 83-85mph in the test series.
