This short is a strong weapon of any batsman. A bowler will always be a wary of a
batsman who lofts well. Picking the length to loft is the crucial decision a
batsman needs to make . 1. Never attempt to loft an over pitched delivery. 2.
Do not lift your head to try and scoop the ball. Keep your head down and allow
your arms instead of the whole body to get into the lofting act A good indicator
of a lofted shot executed well is, by the time you look up the ball should be
well on its way. Many batsmen make the mistake of trying to hit the ball too
hard to get power. Keep your head still, arms going through with hands firm on
the bat handle, and a good follow through of the bat will ensure that the ball
travels a long distance.
