Demonstration video coming soon

Instructions

  1. 1Walk in as the ball is fed along the ground and attack it.
  2. 2Get low with the outside foot forward and hands in front of the eyes.
  3. 3Pick up and transfer in one motion — no standing up between.
  4. 4Throw at a single stump and reset immediately.

What to focus on

Hands in front of the body, not beside the boot.

Common mistake

Standing up after the pick-up, which kills the run-out chance.
