Cricket Basic Number 55 (Batting): Always Vary Your Footwork when Training

55. Keep moving your feet. When doing repetitive batting training, such as hitting a ball in a suspended sock or practicing against a bowling machine, continually vary your footwork - how far forward, back or across you get. Placing your foot, especially your front foot, in the same place every ball is a dangerous habit to get into and should be vigorously avoided. Instead vary the effective line and length of the ball and concentrate on getting into the right position for that unique delivery.
