I love triggers - especially Chanders and Kim Barnett's. They are magic lol (yes I know Buzz hates them, but I don't care. I am henry the hoover ;) )
Seriously, what triggers do people use. The only one I really considered was back foot across a little
-
Dont really use any - just try and stay still (at least I think that is what I do!!).
-
Just stand still and hit the ball! In the words on Shewag, see ball, watch ball, hit ball! Don't complicate things
-
Back and across. ;)
-
Back and across. ;)
what does this mean :o do you move your back foot slightly back and across, but leave your front foot still? do you move both feet?
I often see people say "back and across" but am not really sure what it means ???
-
I tell myself not to use one and try keep as still as possible. I found last week though that I pretty much instinctively have a little movement of my back foot when playing against pace. I normally take my stance on middle stump, so my foot goes towards sort of middle and off. I might try iron this out if it is causing me to get into bad positions, but if it works, then I don't see why I should haha. :D

Devils Advoctae perhaps? My trigger is to look at the bowler as he's running in.

it should mean 1 back foot movement slightly across the stumps WITHOUT committing the front foot and with the weight still evenly balanced.

How much time do you think it takes to groove a trigger before it helps the batsman instead of hindering them?

can be five minutes, it could be 1000 minutes - it depends on the trigger and the reasons for it. It is frequently forever ;)

I like to stay as still as I can, its when I move around that I mess up (which is a lot :()

That, Buzz, was completely my point lol!
-
im trying to get a little shuffle towards off from leg stump to end up on middle, i had this a few years ago and it worked wonders meant i stayed in line, recently ive gone back to shuffling to leg (backing away) and its infuriating
-
I have a little shuffle back towards the stumps.
I used to stand still but I felt a little flat footed & the trigger helped me back into form.

Nickauger. :D
-
Back and cross. Both feet.
And sometimes back and across TWICE. It can through few bowlers off :D
Bet'n mostly we tend to let our head wobble during triggers and
that causes the off-balance feeling.
You can literally walk around as long as ur head stays still
Bad analogy - steady video camera = better steady picture
Steady head = better chance of middling.
If all of above doesn't make sense - I ll blame it on the fact that I am half asleep.
Jag.
