Hesara was struggling with his balance after the strock last session in last week. My plan was to correct the same in his 2nd session. That was on last Sunday. After feelding session with his colleagues Hesara started his session from 16.00hrs to 17.00hrs we stared with cover drive. I have roll the bowl to him to drive by reaching the bowl. To check his balance pushed him sides and fronr. Then check his weight transfers to front leg. Instruct to bring the bat close to the body till contact the bowl. Found he is aging the bowl wen i send the bowl little bit out of the off stump. Found error in his back lift and holding bottom hand so tightly. As solution gave hom bat drills with top hand. Next week plan to double check improvement of past and going to work with top hand power ans bottom hand balance.
Coaching Points
Going to check all the past mistakes and top hand power and bottom hand control by thronging the bowl out of off stump. Going to start with bobble feeds bouncing two or three times to drive around 100 balls and then going to progress to half volley feeds.
