Young cricketers must learn the key foundation movement principles, and develop the physical skills required for the game of cricket. In other sports, children warm up before playing and yet in cricket, they will often bowl in net sessions without warming up first.

Little prior knowledge of exercise programmes is needed with videoes to watch online.
