Bowling machines and side-arm throwers are the secret weapons of serious batting practice - but they need the right ball. The Cricket Swing Ball from Fore Sports is engineered for high-volume mechanical bowling: seamless construction, waterproof finish and the consistent shape that makes machine practice worthwhile.

Engineered for Bowling Machines and High-Volume Practice

The seamless (no-joint) construction is what makes this ball machine-ready. Standard cricket balls have a stitched seam that breaks down quickly under the repeated pounding of a bowling machine, leading to inconsistent flight and unpredictable bounce. A seamless ball stays consistent ball after ball, so the hundredth delivery in a session behaves like the first.

Waterproofing keeps the ball performing in damp conditions. UK practice nets are often outdoor or semi-covered, and a ball that loses its shape after one wet session isn't a good investment. This one shrugs off moisture and keeps its shape across full practice sessions.

Reflective colour options improve visibility in indoor nets and floodlit evening sessions - important when the ball is coming at machine speeds. Available in 80g (junior practice) and 140g (senior practice) weights to match your level.
