It's not all crash bang wallop! Cricket nowadays has the reputation that unless you can clear the ropes by 50 yards that you can't score quickly - this is not true. Rotating the strike and scoring singles is one of the best ways you can make sure you keep your scoring rate high.
To improve the understanding between your batters and to help them keep the scoreboard ticking over in this session, we look at how you can improve your players' ability to rotate the strike while also looking at different batting options to keep the opposition guessing!
What's in the session?
Following a fun catching singles warm up we then teach your players to experiment with their shots and learn how to take the low risk option so that out manoeuvre the opposition's field and find the gaps.
Batting isn't all about power, teach your players to use the pace of the ball to play a variety of shots to allow them to outfox the other team with this session.
Game-based training and match simulation prepare players for real competition more effectively than isolated drills. Modern coaching integrates pressure scenarios, decision-making, and competitive situations into every training session.
Catches win matches remains cricket's truest saying. From high balls under lights to sharp slip catches, the ability to hold chances consistently separates winning teams from those that let matches slip away.
Elite running between wickets adds significant runs without risk. Quick singles, converted twos, and intelligent strike rotation separate the best batting partnerships from average ones across all formats.
