Alyssa Healy Rejigs Wicketkeeping Technique To Overcome Injury Woes
ODI World Cup: Australia captain Alyssa Healy has made subtle adjustments to her wicketkeeping technique to help reduce the physical strain on her body ahead of the upcoming ODI World Cup in India and Sri Lanka.
Healy hasn’t taken up the gloves in a competitive match since the ODI series against England during the Ashes in January. During that series, she played the Test as a specialist batter due to a recurrence of a foot injury initially sustained at the previous year’s T20 World Cup. A separate knee injury also cut short her WBBL campaign.
She explained that while the changes may not be obvious to the eye, they involve adopting a slightly more upright stance - a hybrid style blending elements of wicketkeeping techniques typically taught in Australia and England.
