  • There's this amazing thing.... its called footwork!

  • ur foot movements suck c'mon practice driving with a tennis ball

  • Your pull and cut shots are excellent. When you play those shots you move to the ball and get your head and body in line with the ball by moving your feet. Try and do the same with the rest of the shots. Your hand eye coordination and timing seem to be quite good. You could be a top class batsman.

  • will you come play for my club we think you have potential

  • backing away to much well dats my opinion not tryin to disrespect ur batting its not like im the best but ye just use ur front foot mate ull be right

  • he is backing away from the ball ...plz use ur front foot more often and watch where the ball is pitching ...u should put more wieght on ur front foot ,,if u follow these steps im sure u will play really good ...

  • the only good part bout you is you have a nice MRF with a nice middle

  • number 11 all the way!!

  • i can be gud because ur a gud hit but if u get to the ball u be so much better

  • fuck this guy!! he has not foot work ...he should play some cover drives on the ball that come to to his off side.. he should use his front foot and put his body wieght on the bat and im sure he will get some good shots..he suks ///

  • If you moved your feet you'd be a gun

  • ur a gd batter bt u need 2 move ur feet more into the ball morethan stoping dead and playing with ur wrists and ur bat bt ur a gd ball hitter i play 4 northyorkshire and if u move ur feet more ul get better at hitning the ball were u want it :)

  • You are good but i am a bowler and i saw your weakness and that is every short ball on your body is really hard for you! for example the ball you played at 1:11 and the ball you played at 4 :15 those 2 balls were at your off side and the first one beat you the other one you hit but ur eyes were not at the ball sir! other than that looks good to me! tc bye

  • your alright but man you need to move around a bit, your feet are too close to eachother, from what i have seen you are really weak legside, half of your shots were onside. move your feet into the shot and not defensive to the ball, it will give more force.

  • shit

  • uav got no foot work at all ....

  • dude u need lot of practise mannnnnnnnnn

  • bhai saab u can hit definitely hit the ball well its just that your technique is a bit unusual but as the video shows you dont get out many times so you must be doing something right if u are serious about playing concentrate on your footwork

  • pretty nice off the back foot

  • :) thanks

  • favours the ofside a far bit

  • really? I thought I was entirely a leg side player.

  • u r crap...srs dont play criket anymore

  • I play cricket because I like playing.

    If you do only those things in life which you are good at....you need to get a better life :)

  • dude u need 2 work on alot of stuff. i should start with wearin a helmet, and get a coach.

  • I am 27. Do you really think I would invest in a coach (money-wise, time-wise and effort-wise) to work on my batting??

    I play for 5-6 months a year at a small club level tournament. Out of 8 teams, my individual batting run aggregate stood 15th overall. I think I shall pass up on the coach :)

  • age is just a number. life is small.ur not good. yet u chose to put a video up here showin wat u got n u aint go it. so yeah invest in a coach or just practice on sum great advice gevin by the fellas below me. n then put a video up there and b an inspiration or just a help to those that cant play cricket. peace out.

  • That video wasn't put up to show my ability (or inablities). Its just a video, thats all.

  • bhai saab u can hit definitely hit the ball well its just that your technique is a bit unusual but as the video shows you dont get out many times so you must be doing something right if u are serious about playing concentrate on your footwork

  • hehe...yup, you hit it right on the nail. For some reason I don't get out often :) I had the highest average in the League played last year :)

  • wat number are you in the batting line up

  • Lean in towards your shots more. When you play your cover drives, straight drives, and forward defense shots, your back seems to be real straight. Step up to within a foot of the pitch of the ball and use your shoulders and back to drive the ball and less arm strength.

  • thanks for the suggestions. If I do play this season, I shall surely work on these :)

  • Some good legside and straight shots when you swing the bat, a West Indian style shot @ 1:18!

    You need to to improve your footwork so that you can defend (and also attack) balls better - get your front foot to the pitch of the ball.

  • dont compare a west indian to this.plz.

  • dude not to berate ur batting or anything and im no brian lara or sachin but u need to work on ur foot movement. i may not score alot of runs but i can cover the ball and stick in there for a while cuz i get behind the ball

  • you may not be a lara, but I am not even close to kumble :)

    I know my technique is horrid....but I do stick in there somehow :D

  • wich country is this ?

  • This is in Kansas City, MO - USA

  • One thing bro i think in this vidoe people can see that u are a tailend batsman ...

    U have to try to improve ur foot work ...use ur feet more u might be able to time the ball well

    One thing if u are going to take ur stance out side leg stump make sure u have a triger movement that will get u to middle

  • thats not quite right...alot of ppl bat on leg stump becoz they r weak when its on the legs, and it also makes it easier to dig out yorkers, so a trigger movement to the middle isn't nessecary.

    ur right about the footwork tho...get the feet to the ball and keep ur head over the ball and ur set when it comes to batting

  • there's a couple good ways to work on ur technique...

    get a broom handle or sumting, and three plastic bottles, stand the three bottles in a bit of an arc infront fo u and hold the handle in ur right hand only. step right next to a bottle and swing throo in the motion to drive and hit hit. step back to ur normal and do it again. then repeat. the other way is to not hit the ball, but to jst do nufin but step right to the ball next time, without worrying about hitting it

  • man these people are imbecils thats pretty good batting man..keep it up and post some more videos

  • haha...thanks. No, I know I am not a good batter, but its nice to read at least one positive side of me after 30 comments :D

  • dude u really cant block... u really need to work on that.. and you feet are jsut really moving all over the place n yeah.. so much to work on

  • I know. I know. I know. :)

  • this guy needs practice,he is wearing a right hand batsman pads ,and he cant time the ball,and bowler has no line and lenght bowling.

  • Do you sponsor pads for left-handed batsmen? :D

    Thanks for the comments

  • no offense but u are not good atall, and i dont even think u can improve at this stage!

  • thank you for your comments!

  • no problem hope it helped

  • The Pads are not tied properly.... for a left hander.

    any hing on leg side he fears to bat it... bad bowling tooo........

  • those are not left hander pads...maybe thats why.

    fears? cos leg side is my strong side...infact...my only side lol

  • u have potencial........ keep working at ur battin .. can u bowl ?

  • er...that is a good question :)

    let me put it this way...I used to bowl pace quite well. But for the past 3 years have been keeping wickets for my team so have lost touch. I still do bowl spin.

  • thanks guys. I'll surely be keeping a lot of these tips in mind while practicing in the nets.

  • Make sure to post a video of your progress for us!

  • I really have tried working on my footwork...but I guess I dont learn real fast :)

  • Yeah, Camp is right. You have some potential for sure. (Loved the pull for six. :D) A little tip I use if my feet aren't moving (unless the ball is swinging, dont use this if it is swinging :P). Follow the ball with your head. You will be amazed if you just get your head over the ball then your feet will automatically move. Good luck mate and keep trying.

  • your eye is good, here are some tips.

    move to the line of the ball with your legs. you dont hve any foot work at al.

    try to hit the ball as straight as possible.

  • thanks for those tips buddy. my team-mates have been trying to improve my footwork (especially getting into line of the ball) but I guess its a little hard to change something I have been doing for years now :) (although I am trying real hard!)

    Thanks again
