Spilt the players into two teams, a fielding team and a batting team. The fielding team has to sprint to the ball, pick it up and throw it at the stumps. If they miss then the wicket keeper is to catch the ball and hit the stumps. (Fielding team must hit the stumps for their round to end). The batting team is to perform two runs between the cones. Aka - Each batter is to run to the other end and back. (Once the two runs are competle their round is done). Whichever team completes their task first wins that round and gets a point, the first team to 5 points wins. After each round the players are to swap with other players on their team. Once one team wins the game, the two teams are to swap over with the batting team be coming the fielding team and visa versa.
