Box cricket is short and intense — lots of sudden sprints, dives, and throws in a compact space. A five-minute warm-up goes a long way toward avoiding a pulled hamstring in the first over.
- Dynamic leg swings — 10 per side to loosen the hips
- Arm circles and shoulder rolls before any throwing
- Light jogging or shuttle runs for 2-3 minutes
- Bodyweight lunges — 10 per leg
- A few practice sprints at match intensity
None of this needs equipment, and it fits easily into the few minutes before your slot starts.
