Backyard Cricket [Ultimate pitch preparation]

[theivd]

Excellent stuff.

[anshuman0001]

I used to play a lot of backyard cricket with my bro and cousins, but we had a concrete pitch, so it was exactly opposite of what you made..yours is for bowlers and we were flat track bullies..lol

[anshuman0001]

Ha ha awesome and that's a green top, a rarity these days. The ball will just fly left and right..

[PortandFreo]

I use bricks for my turf wicket.

By the way well done it looks good.

[csbarathi]

you rolled on the side ends of the pitch and not on the areas where the ball pitches!!!

And I loved that sight screen :)

[yellowbelly1966]

great music, you are legends

[landsurfer66]

Well done lads. Brilliant roller/sight-screen combo you've got there.

[kentomster]

u guys gotta pitch....but where r u gonna hit d ball?

[bbourke85]

Mint pitch boys

[Scottyscamp]

I thought the old school from Marylebone cricket club would have contacted you about doing some pitch renovation at Lords ground . May have to leave the corola(?) in NZ . They may give you a real roller!!

[djragav]

gr8 job ppl

[Quat21]

sickwork boys.!

[nickowce]

[MySabiAndRafi]

[someblokecalleddave1]

One of my favourite videos on youtube - the car as a roller is genius

[jtdjtyjt]

[ElDino2k9]

haha dat is legendary

[MyGamerTV]

That was awesome xD

but these windows on left side will make problem Oo?

[elpxpx]

Hit the house (on the full) and you're out.

[RockingKT]

epic

[CallumJayHart]

i agree with the boy below, thats the word i use, dedication, that wud be ace durin an ashes summer

[aido25]

thats dedication

[jajdjh]

That's fucking brilliant.

[MindshareAustralia]

Good work guys, came up a treat.

[xstorm33]

If you cut it, it goes over the fence :(

[midgetboy36]

thats awesome as guys

except it looks like the backyard is 2 small for cricket

[BurningSock]

it's perfect for 5 on the field (incl batsman) or less. 4 vs 4 test matches are great.

[h1017412]

Hahah, I was playing last night and it was mint bro :)

[alanator14]

nice, who run over it in the ute lol, still sweet pitch, great to win the toss and have a bat, the wicket should hold up 4 both teams, but i think it will be a big advantage to bat first. DID U GUYS ACTUALLY PLAY ON IT, HOW WAS T, AWSOME VID, KEEP EM COMIN

[BurningSock]

hah mint, yeah check out our other vid, has a bit of action - really old and not good though, need to put up a new vid ... one day

[lilbennyt]

[lilbennyt]

check out india's backyard cricket, you'll shit ya self

[pbathurst1]

boody great, i might go make 1 now in my backyard. though just wondering if you have the dimensions of the pitch? e.g. length? width? and the rest for the crease and wickets etc? cheers

[kufunmapa]

haha nice, you guys are serious about your backyard cricket alright

[cricket4ever14]

How'd they do that?

[joapplecore]

good form lads better than my efforts......

[mrcatohead]

haha you should have popped down by the local ground and pinched their roller, like the the sight screen though

[aiser009]

[rj77nz]

[rj77nz]

HAHA, very funny!

[rj77nz]

[wcmefly]

Legands

[KnowingxNothing]

That's pretty awesome. And would be very suitable for spin bowlers with a green pitch. Hehe.

Great work.

[haroonaftab]

I would LOVE to have a bowl on that.

[danielmusefan]

[danothomas7]

[BurningSock]

vivaldi - four seasons. it comes from a series of national bank adverts that played on tv in nz.

[kanjoe07]

[jimmyrussell23]

Get a cylinder mower, much easier than a bloody housemower lol

[hirdy6]

Great effort guys and very funny to watch

[spjkut]

[Jimmaunit]

OMG our back yard cricket pitch is nothing compared to urs mine has a slope urs is so flat thats unreal how bigs the run up?

[NGHTYGIRL]

lol thats aweosme!

[someblokecalleddave1]

Brilliant - absolutely brilliant! I love the car being loaded up with blokes and used as a roller - genius. Can't believe it's England - the gardens too big and besides I thought I was the only nutcase that did stuff like this!

[BurningSock]

Hey Dave, it's not England. We're from New Zealand.

[someblokecalleddave1]

Had to be somewhere like Australia or New Zealand. Brilliant vid - well done and cheers for posting it. How often do you use it - and do you do it every year?

[BurningSock]

Use it every year - currently just waiting for the new garss seed to take before we start this seasons backyard

[shaun2985]

good job guys!

[mitchd05]

[cpmangels]

You guys are complete legends! Well done

[utukki80]

[AhmedZulfi]

[B14ckl1st]

[Kiemish]

New Zealand Should be proud to have such dedicated supporters of a great game. well done

[Osloloser]

Amazing...great video...great music (?The four seasons/Vivaldi?).

Cricketing eccentricity at it's very best..English by any chance?

The car with the sightscreen on it was inspired.

Best wishes...and enjoy your cricket.

[lukei1]
