Brief Summary
|
Cricket is a team event that demands the players to assume different activities like throwing, bowling and
batting, bowling, fielding, batting,. And wicket-keeping in the same game . Due to its intermittent nature, this
game imposes a considerable load on the physiological and neuromuscular systems.
A preliminary investigation using amateur male cricketers indicated that training practices
can be outdated, restrictive and monotonous . It requires individuals to execute a range of movements with varying intensities, such as striding, sprinting,
turning, and jumping.
Muscle strength has been put forth as an important factor in enhancing the effectiveness of cricket-related
activities, Bowlers benefit from upper body and leg strength to enhance their deliveries, batsmen rely on arm
and core strength for powerful shots and balance, fielders utilize upper body strength for precise throws, and
wicketkeepers depend on strong wrists and forearms for catching and stumping.
In cricket bowling, for example, faster deliveries reduce the batter’s decision making and execution time of the
stroke and increases the chance of the batter being beaten for pace |
