    Two Handed interception + Backing up | Ground fielding and throwing

    Two Handed interception + Backing up:

    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.

    Two handed pick up and throw for 8-10 players minimum:

    See how many consecutive catches the Wicket Keeper can take before he has to move or the ball bounces. If this happens put score back to 0.
    This can be done against another group, i.e. first to 15 catches without keeper moving.

    Two handed pick up and throw at a wall | Ground fielding and throwing

    Two handed pick up and throw at a wall:

    1) picks up the ball and must throw over the top of the stumps so the ball rebounds straight between the two cones. He stops the rebound and replaces the ball on the spot and then 2) repeats. First team to get 10 rebounds through the cones wins. If a ball goes outside the line of cones your score goes back to 0.
    Variation:- do not replace the ball, but when the ball hits the wall No 2) goes, and so on.
