This is a simple runout competition to start OR end your fielding session.
Set Up:
Stump in the middle (or 2 or 3 along the field depending on numbers)
Cones at each side 15m, 30m & 45m distances out from the stumps
Separate players into even groups for example 2 to 3 at each end.
Start players at the closest cones to the stumps.
Players must hit the stumps 10 times at close range
Then they move back to the 30m cones and must hit the stumps 5 times.
Then move back to the 45m cones and hit the stumps 3 times.
Winner is the team to complete the circuit first.
Game-based training and match simulation prepare players for real competition more effectively than isolated drills. Modern coaching integrates pressure scenarios, decision-making, and competitive situations into every training session.
Catches win matches remains cricket's truest saying. From high balls under lights to sharp slip catches, the ability to hold chances consistently separates winning teams from those that let matches slip away.
Elite running between wickets adds significant runs without risk. Quick singles, converted twos, and intelligent strike rotation separate the best batting partnerships from average ones across all formats.
