Cricket: Inside/Outisde

Work in groups of 10. Two rows of cones are set up, 5m apart in width and 2m apart.

Players get into pairs, opposite each other, lined up behind the first cone with one ball.

The first pair must exchange 5 catches before running diagonally to the next cone where they repeat the 5 catches.

After this players run to the next cone where they now roll the ball 5 times to their partner. The partner performs an underarm pick up and returns the ball to their partner.

upon reaching the end players jog back to the start and repeat.

Get your players to work with with one ball in groups of 3.

The player with the ball stands behind the other two players, who have their back to him.

On the command of "Now" the player with the ball throws the ball. The two catchers have to turn quickly and try and catch the ball before it bounces.

Rotate players after 10 throws.

Two teams pass the ball to their team mates with an overarm throw which must bounce only once and then must be caught.

Using the throws to advance towards the opposition's grid players must not step inside the grid. When they get close enough they can throw at the stumps. If they miss a team mate can run around the back of the stumps to catch the ball.

If caught that team can have another shot, if the opposition catch the ball they then move back up the field to the opposition's grid.

Player 2 throws the ball straight-up, player 1 runs in and catches before returning the ball back to player 2. Player 1 continues to run around the cone, and receives another high feed from player 2.

On catching th ball player 1 takes up 2s original position before the next person in the queue starts.
