Arm amplitude is the determinant factor for running between the wicket in cricket with equipment

Abstract

The objective of the study was the particular technique adaptation made when performing running between the wicket in cricket in with equipment and without equipment condition. The twenty (20) male state level players were performed with and without equipment condition. A digital video graphic camera (Nikon D3300 with 60 FPS) were used for recording of motion. The subjects were performed in 30m running in two different condition. The velocity was without equipment condition 3.53m/s at 2.5m,3.57m/s at 5m, 4.66m/s at 10m, 5.30m/sat 15m, 5.51m/sat 22.5m and 5.61m/sat 30m position. With equipment condition was 3.43m/s at 2.5m, 3.52m/s at 5m, 4.44m/sat 10m, 5.01m/s at 15m, 5.20m/sat 22.5m, and 5.28m/s at 30m position. i.e with constraint condition velocity was significantly decreased because one of the main linear kinematic parameter, arm amplitude was significant changed and it was the important technique. This study would help to guide clear direction for coaches and athletes.
