Show transcript
Move: angling the bat down towards the ground when playing defensive shots greatly reduces the risk of being caught out.
Move: batters can leave the ball by remaining still as it passes both them and the wicket.
Think: remembering to resist the urge to swing for the ball and remain disciplined is key to protecting the wicket.
Feel: protecting the wicket for a long spell and sensing the frustration of the fielders is a satisfying feeling.
Connect: congratulating a long-standing batter at the end of their innings is good sporting behaviour and respectful.
