Overarm Throws Backfoot Drives

Duration: 10–20 minutes
Repetitions: 30–60 balls

In this activity, you will face overarm throws and focus on playing backfoot drives, aiming to place the ball into straight and offside gaps. The objective is to quickly recognise length, shift weight onto the back foot, and drive the ball with balance, timing, and control. This drill helps improve your ability to handle slightly shorter deliveries with intent and precision.

Watch the activity video for a full explanation on how to complete the task.
