Cricket: Hitting On Top Of The Ball

Thanks to Sportplan and their coaching tips, I can now coach with...
Horatius, Cricket Coach

DESCRIPTION

**AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON**

  • Set up a bench at the crease for the batsman to stand on.
  • Batsmen stand in set position.
  • The ball can either be thrown or fed through a bowling machine.
  • Straight balls should be pulled by the batsmen and wide balls outside the off stump should be cut.

COACHING POINTS

  • This drill will get batsmen used to getting on top of the ball and hitting the ball down when playing the cut and pull shot.
  • The bat should be coming from high to low on both shots.
