Filed in:

Purpose: Practicing backing up and throwing at a stump.

At the same time the player at the top right runs to replace the player at bottom right. The throw is fielded by the player at the top left.

Cricket Basic Number 60 (Batting): Think Gaps and Singles

60. Push it into the gap. A batsman’s focus should be on placing the ball into the gap and scoring singles. Between balls don’t think, ‘if the next ball is a bad ball here I will hit a four through there’, think ‘if the next ball is a good ball I can defend it down there and get a single’. Hitting boundaries usually takes care of itself if you don't get out.
