Hi,

im having some real trouble with playing my cut shot, so if any one could explain th best way to play it, i would be so grateful. Being an average cricketer isnt the best sometimes lol.

Make sure that your weight is over towards the off side, head over the ball and hit down on the ball. No need to over hit it, the pace on the ball will take it to the boundary anyway. And wait for it, hit it below your eyes. Not out in front of you.

Well,all I know is that you should move your foot towards square and avoid playing a cut shot to a short ball which is close to your body maybe above or just outside offstump because theres a chance you may nick it and get caught out.
