throwing the ball for the first time, the thrower should say right or
left loudly, and throw the ball so that it rolls. When you throw the
ball for the second time, throw it so that it reaches the waist. While
throwing the ball for the third time, throw it so that it lands on the
fielder's head. Remember that the player who will be a fielder should
be able to catch the ball by running, diving and catching the ball from
the place where he is standing, just like in goalkeeping. The bowler
should take care of the timing of the fielder's inovements.

D. Wicket Keeping

It is generally said that a
wicket keeper is born but
cannot be made. A wicket
keeper is a player who wears
safe clothes and waits for the
ball like a batsman. In this
practice, the entire weight of
the body is transferred to both
legs and the eyes are kept close
to the wicket while looking at
the ball. Practise this skill with the help of a teacher or team leader.
