================== ARTICLE START ==================
When fielding during cricket there are many things to think
about and consider depending on where you are fielding. This
brief article will look at a few essential cricket fielding
tips which you can incorporate into your game to improve your
fielding.

Where ever you are fielding you should always be on the balls
of your feet so you can react and change direction quickly. If
you are caught flat footed you’ll be slower off the mark and
potentially give away more runs.

Try to anticipate where ball will go; you can do this by
carefully watching the batters shape and movements. This may be
a little difficult at first but after a bit of practise will
become second nature and you’ll react much quicker to any shots
coming your way and field better as a result.

When you are fielding close to the boundary and have to throw
from the deep, try to aim your throw just above the keepers
head and the ball should drop nicely in to his gloves, provided
you have a relatively strong throwing arm.

When catching close to the wicket, such as in the slips, gulley
or short leg, make sure you stance is correct with your feet
shoulder width apart or slightly wider. Spread your weight
evenly across both feet, resting lightly on the balls of your
feet, with your knees flexed. Keep your hands together, close
to the ground with your fingers pointing down. Keep your head
up with your eyes level and stay alert.

When catching the ball in close, watch the ball all the way
into your hands, allowing the ball to come to you; don’t try to
snatch at it. ‘Give’ with the ball as you catch, cushioning the
impact. When catching in the deep, try and catch the ball at
eye level and cushion the ball into your chest.

The ball can come to you at any time so it is really important
you stay alert and awake so you can stop that vital run or take
a match winning catch.

These are just a few cricket fielding tips that you can
incorporate into you game; there are many more cricket fielding
tips for specific aspects of fielding. However these are the
general cricket fielding tips I’ve found to be the most useful
when fielding myself.
