Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The purpose of this study is to analyze the kinematic variables of different throwing techniques in cricket (ball velocity, accuracy, and segmental linear and angular variables). For the purpose of the study ten male intervarsity cricket players were selected as the subjects. Thrower performed side-arm and over-head throwing techniques with 1120 approach angle at 450 throwing angle of 10m distance. The mean age, height and body weight of the subjects were reported as 20.60 ± 2.91 years, 170.80 ± 4.02 cm and 60.80 ± 5.14 kg respectively. Canon Legria HF S10 Camcorder operating at 120 Hz used to record the movement. The identified clips were analyzed with the help of Silicon Coach Pro7 motion analysis software. The result of study revealed that there is significant difference existed between different throwing kinematics
