Cricket: Dive Catching - To your right

Diving catch taken to the player's left, after walking in towards the catching board (note - catching board is optional but recommended if availible).

Players must attack the catch by walking in towards the board.

Once the catch is taken, player must get to their feet qucikly and aim to hit the stump.Group 2 of players are backing up and return the ball to the coach.

After players have performed a diving catch or returned the ball to the coach they run to the back of the other group and the drill continues.

Partners stand opposite each other and throw a ball back and forth, trying to see how many catches they can make in a given time (e.g. 1 minute).

1. Player 1 throws the ball to player 2 to run in and catch before throwing the ball back to player 1. Player 2 then joins the back of the other queue.
2. Player 1 throws another flat catch to the next person in line on the other side.

Player 1 throws 10 balls before everyone swaps position in a clockwise direction with all players taking it in turn to throw the ball.

The fielder behind the stumps rolls the ball out, player 2 picks up the ball and throws over the top of the stumps to the fielder behind the stumps.

The process is repeated until player 5 goes who then continues their run to replace the player behind the stumps.
