Why you drop more catches than you should (and what to do about it)

WHAT HAPPEN IN DROP OF CATCH ?
In fraction of second any thing will happen in cricket.It will change the whole match in drop of one catch.Drop of one catch Bowler get more pressure to bowl the next ball and fielder also get tension.

The myth of soft hands
"Catch with soft hands and give with the ball"
We heard that coach tell to take catch and enjoy with your team mates with out any pressure we can play the whole match and win the match.But watching top players catch the ball shows a different picture.

Excellent fielders like Rahul Dravid make catches look like they are having a ball lobbed to them from 5 yards, not flying off the edge at great speed, or just travelled 60 metres plus to the boundary edge.

They are not catching with soft hands, but they are catching. What's more they make it look easy.

The secret of catching under pressure
Batsman hit the ball very high your the man to take the catch and also the winning stage of match while to take the catch.At that time your under pressure so you while drop the catch and lose the match.For that you need to make your self as cool and Dont blink your eye while ball is coming on you ok... now you can take the catch easy.The secret of good catching isn't being soft, it's being strong.

How to catch with strong hands

* Get your hands to the line of the ball, not the ball itself.
* Get into position to catch the ball with the minimum amount of movement.
* Allow the ball to come to you.
* Keep the phrase "strong but relaxed" in your mind.
* Keep the hand together and make it wide open.
* Make your hand like cup or basket to catch ball.

There is an important distinction between strong hands and hard hands. When you are tensed up your hands are hard and don't allow the ball in.

Strong hands close around the ball effortlessly while your arms remain relaxed and your eyes focused on the ball. You will often hear players talking about 'seeing the ball all the way in' when they pull of a great catch. It's rare to see it all the way and drop it.
