I particularly like the video where you rarely fail to hit a '6' slog sweeping...

There is no way that bowling machine is set at 70mph....

And if I had a batsman trying to do that, bowling with swing, seam and around about offstump is going to generate a catch in a short period of time through a miss-hit.

Tim - I think we need to recognise that the bowling machine set in the barn is a pretty short distance (as we tried to calculate before) and what we think is 60 mph is someone else's 75...

I'm with you on this one. The slog sweep video says it was set to 58mph and it looks about the same to me. To much time to pose if that's 70mph - most club players wouldn't be waiting that long for it.

I think Toby Radford might have some handy tips:-

Toby is the don. He literally taught me, and a lot of other youngsters who came through the Berkshire setup in the 90s, how to bat.

Very intelligent individual.

the flourish is a little over the top, holds the pose, then flicks the bat over and onto his shoulder, pack it in. I hate that kind of stuff, no need for it

Great videos and the the holding of position Is just to emphasise and exaggerate the positions required for each shot.

The Toby Radford uploads are a good watch. Simple, well shot/edited, good camera angles and clear presentation. Can't beat the 'The Bob Woolmer Way' though :)

Unfortunately, I keep giving those 'The Cricket School' videos a chance and I'm not really keen on them. In my view they're pretty poorly made and not very informative. Sorry Jemile

I like the way the emphasis is on getting the basics right with a tennis ball first. Simple steps.
