The Effect of Proprioceptor Training on the Activity of Cricket Grounds_2
INTRODUCTIONProprioceptors are known as the sensors which gives details of joints and musculartensions. They also transmit information to brain related to limb position in space. Proprioceptivetraining aims at teaching individuals to establish a control over position of an injured or deficientjoint. The training held great importance especially for athletes and sports person as well as forindividuals injured in accidents (Telizabeth, 2018). The report will define the proprioceptivetraining and its impact on terms like agility, balance and coordination. It will also describe thebiomechanics of cricket particularly in lower limb and impact of proprioceptive training onnational cricket team of Hong Kong. The report will also analyse the modified Ilinois and 5-0-5tests. The report will focus on core muscles exercises and muscle group propriobalanceworkouts. PROPRIOCEPTIVE TRAINING The joint injuries can cause impairment in proprioception capabilities. This impairmentcan lead to an unstable sensation in joints. Its common symptom is difficulty in balancing. Forinjured athletes like cricketers these training sessions serves as rehabilitation components. Ithelps them to accomplish balance adjustments to varying terrain without meeting any injury.Proprioception improvement can help cricketers to develop more efficient sports techniqueswhich improves the performance of cricket players (El-Gohary and et.al., 2016). For examplebowlers always start by taking small steps instead of directly taking large strides and for frontand back foot shots players aims at emphasising their weight on front and back foot respectively(Robert, 2018). These sports techniques can be introduced only by proprioception training. Thisresistance training session are accomplished with uniform level of intensity in muscular regionssurrounding joints then optimum proprioception benefits are obtained. Muscular strength and balancing are the key components for qualitative performance incricket. Proprioception training encourages the reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament inlower limbs. It is also observed that there is strong correlation between proprioception and thestrength of players. Proprioception training involves the actions of joints, ligaments and musclesusing signals which are transmitted through central nervous system. 1

Balance and coordination training Ankle sprain and other limb injuries can severely affect the balancing skills of cricketplayers. Balance is known as the capability to stay under control of body movement whilecoordination is defined as the ability which allows movement of body parts smoothly, efficientlyand in controlled manner (Pratson and et.al., 2014). Balancing and coordination exercises aims atimproving balancing which is the fundamental building block for all functional movement.Balance exercises allows players and others to distribute their weight uniformly. Whileperforming physical activities, hitting balls or leaning down balance and coordination is vital forcricketers so that they do not get injured. According to Tereshchenko and et.al., 2015, theseexercises gives strength and support so that balancing and coordination issues does not affect theperformance of players or cause them to injuries due to fall. Statue batting, squats, single legdead-lift and lunge to front kick are some of the most effective balancing workouts. DEFINITION OF AGILITYAgility is defined as the ability to quickly change the body position and direction ofmovement with control. In order to achieve agility speed, higher reflexivity, coordination,accurate response to changing situation and balancing are the essential components (Parra,Clayton and Kuhns, 2018). Cricketers are also required to respond to the movements and actionsof other players or ball. For providing quick response to ball or moves of opposite team playersmust have these skills and abilities. For the purpose of testing agility Illinois run test are widelyused by the law enforcements. To gain the benefits from competitors in sports activities agilityprovide stability and flexibility so that players can win. To improve the agility various trainingdrills such as tuck jumps, lateral plyometric jumps and sprints can be used (Karakaya andet.al.,2015). RELATION BETWEEN AGILITY AND INJURIES Balance training and improved level of agility can reduce the risk of injury to a greatextent. According to Vos, Vandermeerschen and Scheerder, 2016, agility exercises significantlydecreases the knee or ankle injuries. The agility training teaches players to respond with properbalance, speed and coordination in response to the sport's activity. It is also observed that theplayers with slower times on agility tests such as Illinois have direct correlation with the numberof injuries. The cross athletes with low performances in agility test have more injuries. The2
