Cricket: Front foot defence - leaving the ball

Very useful format and descriptions of drills. I am using Sportplan...
Tony

DESCRIPTION

The coach throws on one knee with a football style throw in, which the batsmen have to defend by hitting back through the cones, with 6 balls each.

COACHING POINTS

If the ball is left they may have another go. The batsmen rotate after 6 goes each.

With older players you can do this in a net with hard balls.

With younger players a giant tennis ball, volley ball or small football can be used for this exercise.
