Kirikiti- Cricket

Over the next 3 days we will be learning the skills of kirikiti. Today we had two ngā kaiwhakaako (coaches), Coach Matthew and Coach Nisheeth from Auckland Cricket.

We learnt the skills of bowling and batting.

For bowling, we used the Starfish stance and learnt that our bowling arm should always be straight when bowling the paoro (ball). In our small rōpū (group), we took turns to bowl and try to hit the wīkiti (wicket).

For batting we practised gently hitting the paoro of the tee, aiming for it to go between two cones to our partner down the other end of the court.
