I'm just posting this as Martin Crowe (who has thankfully come through his cancer treatment) has mentioned issues with the way people are taught to bat nowadays and it's something that's been in the back of my mind for a while.
Given that NZ usually takes its coaching methods from Aus and that Aus & NZ are pretty poor with the bat, have no spin bowling to speak of and have a good crop of young seam bowlers this link seems even greater.
So, is there something fundamentally wrong with the way Aus & NZ have been coaching batting over the last 10 years?
