@djdom121 You talking about 3:35? Well obviously you can physically play that shot but its not a good shot. Playing a back foot square "drive" where you're coming across the line of the ball? Low percentage.
This bloke (Gary Palmer) thinks he's a genius batting coach. I purchased a course of his at Pitchvision's website and it was absolute rubbish. The videos stuck in frame (I understand that has to do with buffering,) but when it didn't stick, he talked a whole complicated load of shabang. The worst thing is his record in professional cricket is appauling. He was apparently an all-rounder for Somerset and had a batting average of less than 20...
@Flippinchutney You can be technically perfect but if you can't read the ball out of the hand and pick up the length then it doesn't matter. Cant teach quick reflexes and reaction time. And at least he made it to first class cricket.
i dont agree with some stuff he's saying but ok for a beginner, but a little bit basic for someone who knows all the shots. but then again i wouldn't be watching this then!
was he talking about australian wickets with those pushes into gaps, cause the offside one on aussie pitches, which are quick will more than likely go over the slips heads
If you cannot learn from the video just shut up and keep your negative comments to yourself.
the video is excellent and teaches the simple basics of cricket very well for young cricketers. everyone has their own style in the end but the basics are really well explained. Gary thanks for sharing this with us. cheers
If he has coached Australia's first team then how is he still alive. Also he cannot coach the first australian team and play with ian botham and viv richard because there was no west indies team before the australian team. You make no sense. And Ian botham came to play cricket after a long time the first aussie team was playing.
just the handling of the bat was fine for me, now I need to test how I go, one tip I'm gonna give you guys, get someone who plays tennis, to serve constant tennis balls at you at a fast pace, faster then a bowler would bowl, and there not serving full length, just shorter, then just block the ball away and keep repeating, it gets you used to the ball more, and the other person gets better serving skills, so vice versa for the tennis players.
If you actually listen to what he's saying you'll realize it's aimed at youth cricket and trying to get the fundamentals right. Gary Palmer is recognized as one of the best cricket coaches going, but i'm sure you're much better!! ;-)
Maybe if you actually listened you could learn something!
just holding the bat properly has sorted me out, i had my top wrist in too weak a position and was compensating with my bottom hand, which is in a weak position anyway. thanks a lot, this was really helpful.
because you have to have lots of skill to be in an international team and you obviously dont know how much you have to concentrate to play cricket at that level
I know what u r trying to say but you dont have to be a great player at the top level necessarily to be a great coach, teaching someone and doing it your self are very different things, my coach is not a great player at all but he is far better then alot of people that i have spoken to that play even first class cricket
great coaching man!they say say the best training is the fundamental basics for batting thanx 4 your contribution 2 all cricketers including myself :)
If you want to play an on-drive then i would recomend that you point the front foot straight down the pitch(very slightly open) not towards mid on as that might encourage your right shoulder to come in and hence u might end up using too much bottom hand and play slightly accross (If ur right handed), if you wanna play straight down then may be point it on middle-off stump

Agree with you gren but leaving the ball with your bat in the air is asking to be caught out with an edge or a glove. Apart from that excellent.
