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

[Byo]

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 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.

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.
