Cricket Bowling Machine

Sports Attack Crick Attack Bowling Machine

The Crick Attack bowls with three wheels and takes full leather cricket balls. The three-point pinch lets a coach set velocity and revolutions on the ball in 3D, so the delivery leaves the machine seam up and small dial changes produce a swing ball the way a live bowler would deliver it.

A measured ball chute sits in front of the wheels. Its distance is calculated to match the speed of an average bowling action, and the ball stays in the batsman's view all the way through to delivery, so trigger movements and setup happen on the same rhythm as a bowler in the middle. Sports Attack rates the three independently controlled motors to deliver at speeds to 100 mph.

How It Bowls

Three Wheels, Three Dials

Every delivery on the Crick Attack is set from three dials and two levers. The wheels do the shaping, the chute does the timing, and the head stays level while you change what is coming next.

👁️
Vision Technology
The measured ball chute is calculated to match the speed of an average bowling action. The batsman tracks the ball through the chute all the way to delivery, sets, and makes a trigger movement on that rhythm.

Three Wheel Design
The three wheels pinch the ball at three points. That gives the coach control of velocity and of revolutions on the ball in 3D, and it sends the ball out seam up for movement off the seam.

Three Independent Motors
Each wheel runs on its own high-powered motor and each motor is controlled on its own. Sports Attack rates the machine to deliver balls at speeds to 100 mph.

In Detail

Crick Attack Bowling Machine, Up Close

Delivery

Seam Up, And Swing On The Dials

The three wheels pinch the ball at three points. That is how the Crick Attack puts revolutions on the ball in 3D and sends it out with the seam up. From there, slight adjustments on the dials give you a swing delivery.

  • Three high-powered motors, each controlled independently
  • Seam-up release from the three-point pinch, for movement off the seam
  • Small dial changes produce an authentic swing delivery
  • Height and direction levers set the delivery with the head left level
3D revolutions Seam up Swing deliveries

Transport

Tilt, Un-Socket, Roll

Moving the machine on and off the square is a three-step job. Tilt it, un-socket the legs, and roll it out on the two heavy-duty transporting wheels. The two wheels carry the 195 lbs across the ground for you.

  • 195 lbs machine weight
  • Published dimensions 41 × 30 × 43 in
  • Ships at 32 × 38 × 43 in and 195 lbs
  • Legs un-socket from the frame for rolling and for storage

A Chute The Batsman Can Read

The chute distance is measured to match the speed of an average bowling action, and the ball stays in view the whole way down it. The batsman sets and moves on what he sees, and stroke play runs at its own tempo. Bright green on the wheels, chute and guard holds the contrast against a red leather ball.

  • Measured ball chute matched to an average bowling action
  • Ball visible through the machine all the way to release
  • Bright green wheels, chute and guard against any colour cricket ball
  • Limited throwing head adjustments and an almost instant recovery time between bowls
Vision technology Fast recovery

Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

The Crick Attack uses leather cricket balls. The compound on the throwing wheels is formulated for them, so batsmen can pad up and face a leather ball, which feels different on the bat than a synthetic bowling machine ball. The machine can also use synthetic dimple bowling machine balls if that is what your club has in the bag.
Sports Attack states that the wheels do not damage the ball, so opening batsmen can have realistic sessions facing brand new leather balls. Shine is the one thing you keep up yourself: if you want to maintain it through a session, shine the ball as you would in a game.
Three high-powered motors drive the three wheels, and each one is controlled independently. Sports Attack publishes a top delivery speed of 100 mph. Because the motors run separately, the speed setting and the revolutions on the ball are set on their own dials.
Yes. The three wheel design pinches the ball at three points, which lets the coach control velocity and revolutions on the ball in 3D. That combination delivers the ball seam up, giving variable movement off the seam, and slight adjustments on the dials produce an authentic swing delivery.
All adjustments run through three dials plus the height and direction levers. There is no need to angle or slope the head of the machine to deliver a different ball. Horizontal movement of the throwing head is quick between bowls, so the batter stays attentive without knowing what is coming next.
The Crick Attack has a measured ball chute. Sports Attack calculated its distance to match the speed of an average bowling action, and the ball stays in view all the way through to delivery. The batsman can set and do his trigger movements as if facing a live bowler in the middle, and time the stroke off the ball he can see.
The machine weighs 195 lbs and its published dimensions are 41 × 30 × 43 in. It ships at 195 lbs with shipping dimensions of 32 × 38 × 43 in.
Tilt the machine, un-socket the legs, and roll it out on two heavy-duty transporting wheels. That is the whole procedure, and it is how a 195 lbs machine gets to the net and back without a lift.
The throwing head is a high tensile, heat-treated alloy, weather-resistant aluminum casting that protects the throwing mechanism. The frame under it is rugged powder-coated rust-proof steel. The wheels, chute and guard are finished in bright green to contrast with any colour cricket ball, red leather in particular.
Sports Attack stands behind the material and workmanship of its machines and all wear components, which it lists as throwing wheels, controllers and motors, for two years for residential and institutional buyers and one year for commercial buyers, from the date of original purchase based on the serial number and date codes on the unit. Separately, Sports Attack expects the specially-formulated compound on the throwing wheels to last 10+ years.
