The 'Orthodox' Bat Grip

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

• 99% of British and European players use the shake hand grip.
• As the name suggests, players ‘shake hands’ with their bat.
• The thumb and first finger are on the playing surface and lie roughly parallel with the straight edge of the rubber.
• Other three fingers wrap loosely around handle to provide stability and balance
