Hi Subhan, here are some tips for batting with a good mindset:

1. Stay Present:

Focus on one ball at a time—don’t dwell on the past or worry about the future.

2. Be Positive:

Look to score, not just survive. Positive intent helps you make better decisions.

3. Trust Your Game:

Back your technique and shot selection. Play your strengths.

4. Stay Calm Under Pressure:

Control your breathing, stick to routines between balls to reset.

5. Adapt Quickly:

Adjust to pitch, bowlers, and match situation. Flexibility is key.

6. Learn from Each Innings:

Reflect after each knock—what worked, what didn’t. Build self-awareness.

I hope this helps,
