Basically it argues bradman's incredible success was based on an unorthodox technical style that was never really copied and provided several advantages to the batsman.It evolves from a natural uncoached method.And the player who has come closest to copying the method is steve smith.

 

Your thought?Shouldn't this be something that should be studied by our batting coaches?It could be groundbreaking and turn ideas on orthodox classical 'ideal' batting technique on its head.

Unorthodox styles are generally unique to particular batsmen .... Lara for e.g had an unusual bat lift too 

 

In Ind, we appear to be more obsessed about text book cricket, which can work for masses, but ppl with unique technique that work for them should be encouraged to stick to with it

In India overcoaching is done too much, kids with talent should be left alone.They need to be guided rather than coached.
