Help with facing fast bowlers !!!
Hey, I am not much of a batsman but I still bat around middle. I really hate playing fast bowlers, I keep thinking i will get hit...I get nervous and when they bowl it just comes sooo quick that instead of moving towards the ball, i move away
I especially dont like leg side shots, when it comes pelting down leg, i just move out of the way but these r the deliveries i am supposed to be putting away! I can only play one good shot-the cut. I can drive a bit too but i dont like to because when i come forward i think i am gonna get hurt!
Few days ago i was batting and got hit on thigh because of a leg side ball-i just tryed to lift my leg out the way. I know i should get my feet moving but I feel i cannot do that until the bowler has actually bowled becaue you dont know what kinda length it will be! Also, what should I do to know when and which shot to play and how to adjust so i can play it?
Please give me some tips to play comfortably and not play with my heart in my mouth when it comes to fast bowlers! WHAT DO I DO??
Thanks
