Abdullah Rehan

Abdullah Rehan has played club cricket since his early teens and has been tracking the crossover between cricket and technology ever since smart sensors started appearing in professional coaching setups. When VR cricket training arrived on Meta Quest, he started covering it seriously — testing gear, logging hours with the headset on, and writing about what actually transfers to the crease versus what looks good on paper.

At CricketX, Abdullah writes practical guides: how to set up your play space, which Meta Quest headset gives you the best tracking for a cover drive, what each bat model actually feels like during a full session, and whether the analytics the app produces align with real coaching feedback. His focus is always on the batter who wants to improve — not the gear enthusiast who wants to collect it.

He covers the UK market specifically because cricket infrastructure here — the nets availability, the season length, the travel required to find quality bowling — makes VR training a genuinely useful supplement rather than a novelty. His guides are written with that context in mind: practical, honest, and written from sessions, not press releases.
