Answer 1

cut off your right arm

Answer 2

it is very tough to learn to do wat u r not used to. I  bat with my left hand and write with my right hand. for me i find it extremely weird when trying batting with my right hand. But practice makes perfect. For instance if you practice yourself to write with ur other arm you are elligible to write with it after alotta practice. Same with batting. Practice hard. and get used to it. But i am gonna say that you will able to score a century for 75 balls with ur right hand but u will only able to score a century for 150 balled using ur left hand but it could be used as an alternative.

Answer 3

Cut you right arm

Answer 4

BASICS Go back to the basics, put a ball on the ground, get in stance and practice hitting it, throw a ball against a wall and hit it when it comes back, slowly go through all the stages of a shot and remember, it takes 1000 repetitions for something to become natural, or for your brain to do it automatically,so repeat repeat and repeat.

Also, you can get someone to roll the ball to you, and you hit it, slowly, as your technique gets better and more comfortable, progress to an underarm throw with maybe a couple of bounces, then up to one bounces, then a soft overarm throw, etc, but always, when you start a new session, for the first 20 mins revert back to the basics.

Answer 5

You had to be ambidextrous to be able to switch easily, if that is not the case, then you would have to build more muscle and keep on using the left hand more since, currently the right one seems to be doing the bulk of the work ...
