    Cut and Pull in cricket

    iCrick


    How to play the perfect cut and pull:

    "Playing the cut and pull confidentially requires hours of practice to master the correct technique.

    Place your feeder about six or seven yards away from the batter. Your feeder should be on one knee and feed underarm to demonstrate the bounce off the pitch. Then aim to throw the ball just above waist height, adjusting the line every ball. So that the batsman has to make a decision on whether to cut or pull the ball.

    Remember don’t try not to hit the ball to high. And try to come down on the ball to keep the ball on the floor at all times."
