Getting to Grips

Getting to Grips is a unique publication for cricket coaches and players of all ages. It offers skills, drills, and practical solutions to common batting problems. Author Toby Radford uses his experience as an international batting coach to offer invaluable insight into what makes the world's best players so successful. He describes the Five Fundamentals of Batting - the basis of good batting - and uses an innovative mix of images and notes to clearly describe highly complex batting techniques and movements.

This second expanded edition includes new technical analysis of international and county batsmen and offers practical guidance for players preparing for, and managing, their innings as well as how to cope with any unwanted yet inevitable runs of poor form. For coaches, there is a new and detailed breakdown of how to structure a one-to-one session with a batsman to quickly improve and maximise their potential.

The effective techniques, skills, and drills are the same Toby uses with the world's top batsmen in the West Indies, in Bangladesh, and with the ECB, and are all offered here to help take your playing or coaching to the next level.
