Tonights Net- New videos
« on: January 19, 2012, 04:59:35 PM »
Good arvo all.
So, I have not stopped playing since the end of the season in September, be it Nets, Coaching or Indoor games.
I'm feeling in good nick, driving the ball well and off my legs (my strongest area) is coming on well.
I'm looking to ramp it up now and and would appriciate any help/ pointers of where to go next.
Video:

Video 2:

Sir Philip BUZZington has viewed the videos and given me some pointers on what to work on with my grip and being stiller at the crease.
I have been working on this, and will film tonight to show where I'm at the moment.

I cant for the life of me play the cut, never been able to. Any ideas?
Thinking about going on the short stuff tonight.
The pitches in Dorset are mostly low and slow but on Sundays we do get some decent bowlers.

Similar issue to me, your always moving after you've hit the ball which indicates your not balanced. How to fix this... im not quite sure!

Yep, Trying to cut it out.
The way I'm trying to oust it is by running a 2 every time I come off balance. Make it hurt me!  >:(

Yup, I agree with Leo, your playing every shot 'on the move'. Other than that there doesn't seem to be much wrong! Looks like a pretty solid technique to my untrained eye. I'm sure Buzz can point you in the right direction re: drills to eliminate this. If I were you I would book an hour of one to one coaching. It's always money well spent....

Thanks PmcG. 
The Other thing I want to get out the very wide backswing...  :(
But all in due course.

If you mean your backswing when you pick up the bat, I had the same problem, I always brought my bat down from about 2nd slip and therefore played across everything but when I last got some coaching he told me to make sure the back of my right hand was touching my backleg as I picked the bat up. It really helped. Dunno if that's what you meant though  :)

May be me but you seem to be arching your back a lot so head is outside the body so may be affecting the balance

if people want to stop playing shots on the move you can do this on your own.
stand in your normal stance and put a semi circle of balls, can be cricket or tennis, effectivy from ten to to ten past if you can imagine that the lean forward and play a drive at each ball in succession holding your position after each hit the repeat and repeat and repeat...
I hope that makes sense.

as for playing the cut, read bob woolmers book on that, but your position, especially head and back foot is important, as is really throwing your hands through the shot.
early season it can get you into trouble.

Having a backswing from 2nd Slip/Gully is a good thing. It allow you to play off your legs/pull easily, and, if done properly, when driving you will straighten your backswing before playing the shots. All the greats do this.

As said before you fall away a hell of a lot but only seem to do it when playing leg side. Kind of started to annoy me if I'm being honest.

You seem strong through the off side and very balanced. Just try and keep your head over the ball. Currently your head is over the offside of the ball which is putting you off balance.
