Every batter wants to improve their batting yet most batters don’t know which core metrics need to be improved to achieve their goals.
Most rely on the observations of their coaches, friends and family. Some may even use video analysis.
The problem is that these observations are subjective and not based on science or accurate data.
The result is that development plans and drills are not personalised.
Scientific and Data-Driven Solutions
Scientific and data-driven solutions to this problem now exist with cricket batting sensors like str8bat.
str8bat provides insights that measure:
- Swing and impact speeds
- How well the shot is timed,
- How well it is middled
- Where the shot has been hit
- Whether it is in the air or along the ground
- And much more…
It provides a complete 360-degree view of the bat path for each and every shot played… and it captures all this without any cameras.
Learning To Train With Data
str8bat realises training with data is new and may be daunting. To help us learn to train with data, str8bat have produced video tutorials to visually show how the stroke is played, how it should be played, as well as how it can be improved.
These tutorials can be accessed via the str8bat App, which can be downloaded for free from the Google Play and Apple App. stores.
The tutorials cover topics like:
- The Cover Drive
- Power Hitting
- Batlift Angle
- Watching the Ball
- And more…
Plus it includes a complete master class by world-renowned cricketer, Greg Chappell.

How the tutorials help you improve
The tutorials visually show you the bats path as strokes are played.
The visuals are based on real data and every point of the bat swing is captured.
These are then presented as part of the tutorials so that you can see what the strokes should look like.
After going through the tutorials, you will be armed with new knowledge about batting actions, feet positions, head position, balance, power and more.
You can then choose which areas you would like to focus on and to improve your batting.
You will stop wasting time, effort and money on methods that are not based on science and data and will be more confident and assured that you are doing the right things and can measure your progress.
