Batting technique

Batting technique in cricket involves several key components to effectively hit the ball. The player stands with their feet shoulder-width apart for balance, holding the bat comfortably. The stance is important for visibility and coordination. As the bowler delivers the ball, the batter positions their body to face it, ideally keeping their eyes level with the ball. Timing is crucial; the player must decide whether to defend, drive, or play a shot based on the ball's speed and direction. Proper wrist and elbow positioning helps control the bat, maximizing power and precision during the shot.
