skill drill for batting swaying

ANSWERS
Lois Wells, England

Hi Rashmi,

For practicing the skill of swaying while batting, I recommend the "Swaying Away" drill. This drill focuses on playing a ball that is at the body, usually rising and too high to play. Here are some key points:

  • Lean away from the path of the ball with hands and body.
  • Go back and across the stumps while maintaining a side-on position.
  • Keep weight forward even when moving back and across to maintain balance and control.
  • Keep your eye on the ball all the way.

You can find more details about this drill here: 1 Swaying Away Drill.

Let me know if you need further assistance or more drills!

Thanks,

Lois
