Here's AB setting a new world record for saying the word "Box" in 90 seconds. He's right though, his back foot never leaves the floor. How often do you see Pro's walking after their shots? Hardly ever.

thanks for posting that video - the ABDV vidoes are brilliant.

Separately I have had a couple of requests for a kitchen coaching clinic - one on driving the ball and hitting the ball on the up and another on the back lift.

If there are any other requests, please let me know.

FYI - the idea is that they are short (less than 2 min) tip sessions which I can do from the confines of my kitchen. I will then seek some other youtube examples of people doing the activity as a demonstration.

They are excellent videos! I have some software that acts like a box where I keep my videos, in this box and try not to keep anything outside of that box. As long as I keep them in the box then they are safely in the box and I won't lose them outside of the box.
Seriously - great video of AB! And keep the kitchen coaching coming Buzz! Great work

Any advice on how to work on not breaking the wrist on the top hand would be good!

Idon't know if I need to shorten my handle, but when I bat sometimes the top of the handle is hititng my lower form arm as my wrist is breaking. If I try keep my wrist locked I feel like a robot.

One on backlift would be good, I have a bad habit of collapsing my front elbow and then picking the bat up to 2/3rd slip and bringing it down angled.

Before the explanation I thought you were actually talking about physically breaking your wrist
Ie every time you batted you broke your wrist and had to go to hospital! That would be some mega bad luck or a really poor technique

How about one like ABD's on getting ryhtm before ball is released? Bat tap vs bat swish....pros and cons etc.

I found this video and thought it was a good batting drill to share, no the coach is no relation to me, but I like his work... I like the drop feeds and they can be used in lots of different ways. I always have a load of tennis balls to hand, if you don't sports direct have very cheap balls which are ideal.

Not many people have had a look at these videos this time around - so am giving them a little bump - do take a look. I realise I need to improve the camera work!!

what are your thoughts on getting ryhtm before ball is released? Bat tap vs bat swish....pros and cons etc. I find bat tapping to be the best way to time the ball and get power, but it throws my head off to the off side.

Really personal, but I prefer it to any trigger.
Will think about it and see if I can chat about there next week.

Another good couple of videos Buzz, keep em coming.

Loving the slippers, get those spiked up!

@Buzz thanks for doing those kitchen clinic videos. Can you do one with tips to avoid backing away from while facing a fast bowler. Lately I've developed a bad habit of moving back leg towards square leg when facing a fast bowler. I found this brief video on youtube where Clive Rice talks about the said problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjZI6TfOE44.

It would be great to hear other tricks and tips to avoid this movement.
