Setup metric
Eyes level
At POR, the head should be still with the eyes level because any head tilt distorts how you perceive length and line (even a slight upward tilt can make deliveries look shorter), which leads to worse play/leave decisions. This metric measures the tilt of your eye line at release.
Setup metric
Head on middle/off
At POR, the head should be set near the off-stump channel (between off stump and middle/off). This helps the batsman judge whether to play or leave deliveries pitching in that "business area", where top bowlers attack most often. Starting there also saves time because you don't have to shift across the crease to get into line against high-speed deliveries (but if you set up too far over towards off stump, straighter balls can leave you less aligned and more vulnerable to being bowled or pinned in front).
Setup metric
Head near front foot
The head should be close to or over the front foot (but not beyond it) to enable easy movement forward or back.
Setup metric
Front knee inside front toe
Keep the front knee inside the line of the front toe at ball release; if it bends out past the toe line, your bodyweight gets taken across the wicket (sideways) instead of staying central/down the pitch, which makes quick movement into line harder.
Setup metric
Back knee inside back toe
Keep the back knee inside the line of the back toe at ball release so you're not sitting on a "collapsed" back leg; too much bend/weight on the back knee makes it slower to transfer onto the front foot when you need to go forward.
Setup metric
Front knee inside back knee line
At POR, the front knee should sit inside the line of the back knee to keep your bodyweight central (not drifting across), so you can move forward or back quickly into the right position to play.
Setup metric
Front toe inside back knee line
At POR, the front toe should stay inside the line of the back knee to keep your base narrower and more central, which helps you access all lines without an unnecessary sideways shift.
Setup metric
Feet slightly open
At POR, the feet/hips should be slightly open rather than fully side-on because it gives you a better starting alignment and access to more lines/angles, making it easier to adjust late if the ball swings, seams, or angles.
Setup metric
Front knee inside off stump
At POR, the front knee should stay well inside off stump so your knee bend doesn't take your weight too far to the off side, making it easier to cover straight balls and still access leg-side lines.
Setup metric
Head inside back toe
At POR, the head should stay inside the line of the feet (inside the back-toe line) so your weight is stacked over your base; when the head sits outside the feet at release it commonly makes you play across straight deliveries and costs clean movement forward/back.
Setup metric
Hands under head
At POR, keep the hands close to the body and under the head so the bat stays compact near your centre (lower rotational inertia), which improves balance and makes the bat easier to control from the start of the stroke.
Setup metric
Hands centred
Keep the hands set mid-body at ball release (around the midriff/hip line), not held back or pushed forward, so the bat stays close to your centre of mass and therefore feels lighter/easier to manoeuvre, helping a smoother, more repeatable backswing and a more controllable bat path.
Setup metric
Shoulder-elbow alignment
At POR, the front elbow should sit roughly under the front shoulder so the lead arm stays stacked and the forearms stay aligned, making a straighter, more repeatable bat path easier.
Setup metric
Elbow-wrist alignment
At POR, the top-hand wrist should stay close to the front elbow line so the forearms work as one unit, helping the bat swing in a straight line for longer and improving control of the bat face.

Cover drive metric
Weight transfer
Top batsmen drive with their weight committed onto the front leg at impact and then hold/continue that forward transfer into the finish, so the bat can travel through the ball with maximum control and power. When the weight stalls or shifts back after contact, it typically reduces force into the shot and makes it harder to keep the ball along the ground.

Cover drive metric
Stable base
We score how balanced your base is by checking whether your hips stay over your feet at release and again at the finish. The score is higher when your body stays centered and you finish stable, and lower when your hips drift outside your base.

Finish (stabilised)
Cover drive metric
Backswing
The hands are taken back as the body moves either forward or back to the ball. Some players like to keep the bat low before they take it back (one-phase backswing), while others stand with the bat halfway or even fully up before moving to the ball (two-phase backswing). It is a personal choice, and both can be effective. This metric measures how much your hands are taken back from release to peak backswing, scaled by torso length. A higher backlift helps generate more power for the downswing.
Cover drive metric
Unweighting the bat
Top batsmen in their backswing bring the bat to the unweighted position where the toe of the bat points vertical to the sky prior to commencing the swing of the bat. This makes the bat feel light as the weight of the bat runs down through the handle. This allows you to create lag where the bat comes down like a pendulum rather than relying on your hands to generate speed through the ball.
Cover drive metric
Weight transfer at impact
Top batsmen step towards the ball and transfer most of their weight onto the front foot / bent front knee at impact so their body momentum goes through the ball, making it easier to hit the drive hard and along the ground; if the weight stays back, you typically lose timing/power and are more likely to hit the ball in the air.

Forward
Cover drive metric
Contact under eyes
Top batsmen try to make contact under their eyes because it forces them to play later, which gives them more time to see any deviations in the ball's line and allows them to get on top of the ball, keeping it down instead of hitting it up in the air.
Cover drive metric
Head position
Top batsmen are consistently at a balanced position at ball contact. They look to create a straight line in their straight bat shots in both defence and attack (from their head through the hands and the bat to the ball). This metric draws a horizontal line between your nose and the bat line at impact to see this.
Cover drive metric
Front knee bend at impact
A bent front knee at contact is a simple check that you've transferred weight forward and set a stable base, so you can hit through the ball with more power and keep drives along the ground, rather than being stuck back and popping the ball up.
Cover drive metric
Front shoulder leads
Keeping the front shoulder slightly ahead of the back shoulder keeps you aligned to the line of the ball, so the bat can come down straight through the line (rather than opening up early and swinging across it).
Cover drive metric
Back toe stays still
Keeping the back toe/foot grounded and stable through the shot maintains a stable base, which helps you stay balanced and produce more consistent timing and power; lifting it early usually reduces balance and power.
Cover drive metric
Hands under head through shot
Tracks how close your hands stay to the line beneath your head from release to impact. The score uses the worst frame. Batsmen who can keep their hands under the line of their head find it easier to create a straight bat path and make late adjustments for swing, seam, or spin.
Cover drive metric
Head near/over front foot at impact
Top batsmen get their head to/over the front foot at impact because it's a checkpoint that the front foot and head have moved onto the line of the ball with weight transferred into a bent front knee, letting the bat come down straight/vertical and stay on line through contact.
