Cricket: Target throwing

As fielding becomes a more important part of the game, having a strong arm is vital in a game that?s getting faster and more powerful each season. Improve your players all-round game to offer something not just with the bat or ball.

How's your arm? Give all your players the best answer around and see them fizz it back into the stumps!

Two teams pass the ball to their team mates with an overarm throw which must bounce only once and then must be caught.

Using the throws to advance towards the opposition's grid players must not step inside the grid. When they get close enough they can throw at the stumps. If they miss a team mate can run around the back of the stumps to catch the ball.

If caught that team can have another shot, if the opposition catch the ball they then move back up the field to the opposition's grid.

When the batsman (1) calls Yes the coach rolls the ball towards the fielder stood by the stumps.

Fielder (1) runs across, picks up the ball and then tries to run out the batsmen.

Repeat with the next fielder and batsman.

Each batting team has a certain number of wickets (eg. 3 wickets). The teams change over once the batting side have lost all their wickets.

Player 1 starts on the cone with the ball and rolls the ball out for player 2 to run in and intercept the ball with two hands.

Once player 1 has rolled the ball out to player 2 they then have to run behind the stumps to field the throw.

After throwing the ball behind the stumps player 2 then stands on the cone, receives the ball back from player 1 and the drill can start again.

The fielder behind the stumps rolls the ball out, player 2 picks up the ball and throws over the top of the stumps to the fielder behind the stumps.

The process is repeated until player 5 goes who then continues their run to replace the player behind the stumps.
