Ground fielding drill for more advanced players to warm up hand-eye skills ahead of further practice. The drill runs with a Wicket Keeper and a group of fielders. The drill begins with the Wicket Keeper behind a stump. There is then 3 groups of fielders in a triangle around the Wicket Keeper. The drill will start with the Wicket Keeper (position 1) who will roll the ball out to fielder 2 who will attack the ball and underarm at the Wicket Keepers stump. The fielder backing this up at position 3 will create a long barrier to gather the ball and then have an overarm throw at the stump by position 4 with the ball bouncing once. Fielders at position 4 will gather the ball and throw this to the Wicket Keeper on the full over the top of his set of stumps. Fielders will follow the ball they have thrown and move around the triangle, with Fielders from position 2 always stopping on route behind the Wicket Keeper to back up the throw from position 4.
