Technical Batting Coaching & Drill-Based Training
Real cricket is built on basics, not shortcuts. See how we use targeted drills to fix your stance, grip, and shot execution to build a solid foundation.
This is what real progress looks like. I show a player's stance and shot execution before my coaching and the massive improvement after just 7 days of dedicated training. Hard work always pays off.
Listen to how I break down batting alignment. I explain why your head, shoulder, and toes must be in one line to play a perfect shot and avoid mistakes. *Sab line of the ball rehna* is my mantra.
Here, we are using a tire for pull shot training. This drill is not just about the shot, it's about building core strength, improving bat speed, and maintaining body balance through the stroke.
Footwork is everything in batting. In this drill, we use hurdles to improve agility and ensure quick, decisive movement, which is crucial for getting into the right position for any shot.
This is a match simulation drill. I create pressure situations so you learn to handle them in a real game, focusing on shot selection and rotating the strike. *Ye bahut important cheez hai*.
Hands-on correction is key to my coaching. Here, I am physically adjusting a young player's stance and bat path to ensure they feel the correct technique for skill improvement.
We work hard in group sessions too. This shows a backfoot training drill with multiple players, creating a focused and competitive environment for everyone to improve together.
About this collection
A good stance is useless if your alignment breaks the moment the ball is delivered. Whether it is correcting your head position or fixing a top-hand dominant grip, I focus on the micro-adjustments in your technique that translate directly into better shot selection and more runs on the scoreboard.
Batting is not just about swinging the willow. It is a game of precision, and that is why my training methodology starts with the fundamentals. If you are struggling with your backlift or finding it difficult to hit the ball in the V, we need to strip your game back to basics.
My coaching style relies on repetitive drill-based sessions rather than just nets.
Why my approach works
- Alignment: We constantly work on the mantra, 'sab line of the ball rehna' (everything in the line of the ball). If your head, shoulder, and toes are not aligned, you cannot control your shots.
- Top Hand Control: Most players make the mistake of using the bottom hand to force shots. I teach you how to use the top hand to provide control, which is the key to classic drives.
- Drill-Based Progress: From using tires for pull shot balance to hurdle drills for footwork, every exercise serves a specific purpose in your development.
We offer training across my academies in JP Nagar, Ajjagondanahalli, and Kothanur. Whether you join our weekend group batting programs, intensive weekly camps, or private 1-on-1 sessions, the goal remains the same: to remove your technical flaws and build muscle memory. I do not promise instant success, but if you put in the hard work, the progress will be visible in your technique within days.
