The way he's swinging the bat, he won't get a hit until the 20th century.
We know you can bunt, Mick. You're not down here to bunt. You're here to get some hits and get your swing back.
The one unbreakable rule about hitting is this: if a batter hits well with his own particular stance and swing, think twice - or more - before suggesting a change.
Jacques Rudolph at the moment is using the inside edge as much as the middle of the bat.
There is no one correct way to bat, and so of course there is no one correct stance for it.
You take a couple of days off, and your swing is going to be off. I think it takes 15, 20 at-bats to really feel comfortable again.
To me, form is not about scoring runs but how you feel about your game. Sometimes the runs are not there, but you know you are batting well, and that is good form for me.
I have always said the most difficult batsman to bowl against is the man who is in form. You may have seen the best batsmen get out early when they are not in form, but an in-form batsman is difficult to dismiss.
It happens with every batsman; sometimes, despite feeling good in the nets, you don't score runs in the match.
I'm not someone who needs to bat and bat to be in form.
Our hitting coaches have done a great job of understanding when I don't look right at the plate and getting me back on track.
I am happy with my batting form. I have been bowling well, too, and have bowled long spells.
