Fielding practice.10

The best slip fielding practice is provided by one of the fielders in rotation throwing the ball fast from a range of from 8 to 10 yds, and full pitch so that the coach can slice it off the bat to slips and gully. This needs accurate throwing and considerable skill on the part of the coach, but it is far nearer the real thing than practice off the cradle and can stimulate the fielders into excitedenjoyment and competition.
