Abstract: For several years, ball pitching systems have been used in sport preparation. The aim of this project is to create the cheapest ball pitching device ever, capable of automatically throwing balls at various appropriate adjustable speeds for cricket practice. Typically, balls are tossed from a platform that uses motors, but the user may also control the discs and swing. The batsmen will benefit from the bowling machine's assistance in mastering their abilities. Different bowling patterns can be created by the machine. The unit is made up of two motors, one of which rotates clockwise and the other anticlockwise. The distance between the wheels should be moderately less than the diameter of the tossed ball. Between the two motors, a valve is mounted. The balls are inserted into the valve when the motor reaches the desired rpm. By frictionally grasping the ball between two spinning wheels, this machine transfers kinetic energy to the ball. The motor's rotational speed can be changed independently using an electronic regulator. The whole unit is placed on a height adjustable stand. Thus can be used for varying the length according to the requirements. The stand is placed perpendicular to the upper chassis. The report outlines all of the specification requirements for creating a professional cricket pitching machine, including technical and electronic aspects.
