Any active sportsman has to be very focused you've got to be in the right frame of mind. If your energy is diverted in various directions, you do not achieve the results.

Your conscious mind tells you the next ball might be a out-swinger, but when it's coming at you you realize it's an in-swinger... so literally, you've played two balls.
