Hi Sivakumar,

Sportplan Cricket members have access to 350+ drills and over 45 session plans. Drills have been broken down into categories to allow you to select drills specific to the skill you are looking to put to the test.

You could start by browsing through these categories to pick out drills suitable for your needs! Here's a good session plan template for younger players which can help you evaluate fielding skills.

Hope this helps and good luck with the trials.
