Cricket: Overarm Throw Basic Technique

** AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON **

• Drill can work with a mininum of 3 players and 1 feeder.
• Can add more pairs sharing catches if you have more numbers.
• Coach/feeder will use the ramp to send 4 consecutive catches to a player opposite.
• Inbetween that, players will pair up and swap catches whilst the coach is sending the 4 catches.
• Players rotate once the 4 catches have been taken.

**AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON**

• The player starts in a power position with feet aligned to target
• The players' front leg steps over the hurdle, ensuring it keeps pointing towards the intended target
• Receiving player collects the ball and repeats the drill

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON*

• Using a wall, set up a line of cones about a foot from the wall to create a narrow corridor
• Bowl along the wall (not releasing the ball)
• Bowl in both directions as one direction encourages front arm to align straight and other direction encourages bowling arm to align straight. 

• Cones are set out as a gate, in the point fielding position and extra cover fielding position.
• Players split into 2 groups in each of the gates.
• Coach will position themselves at the strikers end stump with a bat. 
• Coach will serve himself and strike a ball towards the point or extra cover gate. 
• Receiving player will catch or gather the ball, return it to the coach and join the back of the queue.
• This drill can be played as a competition, coach vs players. For every clean catch or gather, the players receive a point and for every misfield, the coach will receive a point.
