CRICKET DOCTOR
Cricket is serious business in India, and
cricket stars, as we know, are next only to God.
But what we are perhaps not aware of is that a
lot goes into retaining the stars in the best
form. There is of course the coach and the
physio-therapist and the full team of
professionals of varying expertise who support
the players. What we are talking of today is an
unlikely entrant into this select group.
The coach has a key role to play in keeping our cricketing stars in the
right form. Traditionally, coaching is by sight. That is, the coach closely
watches the player in action on the nets and identifies the problem areas
and advises the player to correct the issues that are observed by him.
There is a problem with this sort of approach. The coach
may miss problems at the very start of the player's development, because even
the keenness of eyesight might not be able to catch minor variations in
technique.
This is where video-aided
coaching can play a very vital role in identifying
the problem areas of a player. The player is
videotaped in action and then the video is edited,
analyzed, and played back to the player to reveal to
him the faults or concerns, if any, with his
technique. The only problem is that there is a time
gap of a couple of hours between the practice
session and when the video is made available for
review. By now, the player is in a different frame
of mind, and possibly winding down after a hard day
at the nets - and often not in a frame of mind to
sit down with the coach to view the video and
discuss technique.
Then, a video of the practice session is taken - and the
video analysis is ready to run in seven minutes flat. So, even before the sweat
on the player's brow has dried, the player and the coach can sit down together
to analyze the players action. The practice is repeated after some time and the
player tries to incorporate the coach’s suggestions until it becomes second
nature to him.
