Only a couple of months prior, however, things were a touch desperate. Fellow reviews that stage when Parkar was coming up short on certainty.
“He was going through a fix where nothing was occurring for him. So we chose to return to essentials. For two hours, consistently, we did the ‘cone practice’. It’s a drill where a batsman keeps the ball on a cone and needs to hit it straight. He needs to do this without anyone else. This further develops center. He did it unobtrusively and the best part is he is prepared to really buckle down. Continuously all set that additional mile to improve.
