Cricket: Under arm flick run out game

The batsman calls 'yes' to start the drill and tries to run 2 lengths whilst the fielder (player 1) runs out to meet the stationary ball, picks it up and throw it back to the wicket keeper (thus trying to run out the batter).

The coach decides which team has won and both players return to the back of their respective lines.

Drill continues in this way.

5-6 fielders and batsmen will be needed for this circuit.

When the batting side is ready they must try and run to the other end before the fielding side have caught the ball behind the wickets.

When the batting player (1) shouts YES the fielder (1) rolls the ball out to the next fielder (2) and then runs behind the stumps to back up.

If the ball reaches the wickets before the batting players then those players have been run out.

Fielder (2) then throws ball to the fielder behind the stumps and Fielder (2) goes to Fielder (1)'s old position on the cone.

Fielder (1) throws the ball to fielder (2) before joining the back of the fielding queue and the drill starts again.

Organisation
Organise a group as shown in the diagram. On the command " Yes " the batsman runs up and down the wicket. At the same time players in Team B throw and catch the ball to each other. As the batsman completes the 2nd run the next batsman sets off. Count the total number of catches made when the last better completes the final run. Teams change over and repeat, the winning team is the one with the most catches.
