Hey Ronar, this is a great question and actually something I’ve been working on myself in my own game recently too! It’s a little both of both the areas you mentioned, definitely playing with no hesitating, even against a fast push and keeping a relaxed and loose arm makea a hige difference. Like you mentioned it’s easy to fall back and be off balance, so it’s important to really brush through the ball with a closed bat and keep your weight forward.
Sometimes if the ball is very fast and deep you may need to create a bit more space by stepping back, however often players end up leaning back when doing this, so first tey from your original position by playing the ball with a quick acceleration and really making use of releasing the wrist as well which helps a lot with generating spin and also controlling direction of the ball.
Myself and Tom will create a video specifically on this topic next month, I feel it wull be useful for a lot of players 🙂
