Basic game setup - minus fielders and balls.
Iron the pitch flat using a cool setting (Wool). You can iron directly onto the reverse side without the printed lines, or on the printed side but you must cover with a tea towel to prevent the silk print from transferring to the iron.
Lay out the 6 fences along the straight edges of the pitch, with the triangular connectors aligned where the batter and bowler will play from (They are both the same). Insert the corner pieces one at a time, ensuring the Velcro pads are aligned and press down firmly.
Insert the gantries, then add the batter and bowler at their respective ends. Place the stumps at the batter end on the white line.
You can safely sit the unused balls on the fence by the bowler to prevent them rolling away.
