Effects of Rhythmic stabilization with and without Closed Kinetic Chain Exercises on upper body strength, endurance and balance among fast bowlers
The literature mostly ignores the specific needs of fast bowlers in favor of concentrating on general strength and fitness for cricket players. Exercises for rhythmical stabilization, which improve neuromuscular control and stability, are not given much attention. There is not enough research done on closed chain workouts in cricket-specific contexts. Closed chain exercises replicate the weight transfer and ground response forces during quick bowling. There is a paucity of literature offering fast bowlers-specific evidence-based training routines, despite the unique demands of cricket. Coaches and practitioners are less able to create interventions that target the specifics of the fast bowling motion in the literature because there aren't many exercises specifically designed for cricket.
