The purpose of the drill is to highlight the importance of communication between two batting partners. The coach stands in the middle and shouts a colour zone followed by an instruction. The competitors in the game act as your batting partner listening and reacting to the coaches instuctions. The last player into the zone after a yes call, sits out of the game or becomes the lead batter. If a player races towards a colour when a no was shouted that person is out. The last person standing is the winner.
