Attacking front foot drives
DESCRIPTION
Hi Nk,
Facing fast-paced bowlers in cricket requires specific drills to enhance reaction time, technique, and confidence. Sportplan offers a variety of drills tailored to help batsmen improve their performance against fast bowlers. Here are some recommended drills:
1. Back-Foot Defence Drill: This drill focuses on playing deliveries that are short of a length, approximately stump high. It emphasises a relaxed and balanced stance, proper back swing, and stepping back to defend against fast deliveries.
2. Back-Foot Drive Drill: Designed to help batsmen play short-pitched deliveries effectively, this drill encourages players to transfer their weight onto the back foot and execute a drive.
3. Drop Feed Drive Drill: In this exercise, a feeder drops the ball in front of the batsman, who then steps towards the ball and aims to drive it on the second bounce or half volley. This drill enhances timing and shot execution against fast deliveries.
Incorporating these drills into regular practice sessions can significantly improve a batterâs ability to handle fast-paced bowling.
I hope this helps,
Cam
