Ensure that he is happy with his prep action, ensure that he is able to play the ball and is through with his prep before the ball is bowled at him. Ensure that he has a decent back lift, and he is able to play the shot. Make sure that he has a decent stance and that is isn`t too open or closed as this can affect the shots that the batsman can make and the balls that he can hit.
