#2 Ability to watch the ball right from the point of release

This point is basically an extrapolation of the previous point. In order to judge the length of the ball, the batsman should focus on the point of release of the ball. He has to watch the bowler closely and concentrate on the wrist and position of release.
For instance, if the ball is released earlier the ball will be fuller, and this should dictate the footwork of the batsman. Warner wins half the battle here as he is like a hawk watching the ball very closely. His eyes are transfixed on the bowler, and then his footwork takes over.
