This can take a hundred pages to answer. The best thing to start with is to look at Ian Bells video on youtube about cover drives. Its great to watch and gives all the key points. If there are specific issues with what you do after you've seen it then perhaps it would be worth highlighting where it goes wrong when you try it

the video of Ian Bell is pretty good,but keep few in mind while playing cover drive,reach as fast as possible to the pitch of the ball,lead with your head and shoulder,and shoulder must be to the direction of the stroke,and cover drive is always played later than other drives and only half a bat is used,downswing must come from the fine leg region.initially try some drill for it, like underarm feeding and lob ball etc.
The best view of seeing cover drive is when the bowler see the back side of the front shoulder.
