Battting help
Hello this is my first post on this website,
I am a 14 year old from Australia and I open the batting.
I have a problem with having top hand dominance and keeping my hands close to my box.
Does anyone have any drills that I can do by myself at home?
Thanks

Welcome to the site, but what do you mean? Can you explain a little more?

Like when im playing shots, my bottom hand takes over, instead of my top hand, and what i mean by keeping my hands close to my box i mean that sometimes for shots like the cover drive, I play away from my body and inside edge the ball, so by keeping my hands closer to my body it will happen less.
So do you have anything that will help me with this?

That can be tricky. There are some drills in Gary Palmer's section of the site. I would recommend starting here: Gary Palmer's Batting Tips but to get the goos tuff you need to check his premium section.
