This is my first post on the forums so please be nice. Anyway, I'm a 15 year old cricket player who just plays for my school team in Canberra as well as hopefully a bit of lower grade Canberra cricket this summer. I usually open the batting and average in the 20s (not bad for my level but not great) and play the all rounders role in T20s.
I have been told many times that I have a good eye but a bad technique. My question is, should I aspire for a more orthodox technique? I play roughly three shots; a cut, cover drive and pull shot. As someone who knows he's not making the Australian team, I mainly just want to play First XI for my school and some grade cricket. So, should I remodel my technique or trust my eye to get me runs? Thanks in advance for any advice.
