摘要:The introduction of the shorter match formats in cricket (i.e. Twenty20 cricket) has led to a greater emphasis placed upon the successful performance of a quick single in match play. Therefore, the study aim was to investigate the kinematic variables between batsmen and fast bowlers when completing a quick single. Eighteen male cricketers completed 17.68-meter (m) sprints utilizing a match-specific start (walking start, bat dragged through crease and leg guards worn). Timing gates recorded 0-5 and 0-17.68 m time. Joint and step kinematics were analyzed through the first and second steps via motion analysis. Participants were split into batsmen and fast bowler groups based on their primary role within a team. A one-way analysis of variance determined significant (p< 0.05) differences between the batsmen and fast bowler groups. Effect sizes (Cohen’s d) were also calculated. Selected between-group kinematic differences were found. Fast bowlers had a significantly greater non-dominant elbow flexion, and second step swing leg ankle dorsi flexion. The requirements of fast bowling may have resulted in a cross-training effect, as increased range of motion in the bowling arm, and increased dorsi flexion on front and back foot landing, is associated with fast bowling technique. Nevertheless, there were no differences between the groups regarding quick single sprint performance. All cricket players should be proficient in the mechanisms of quick single sprint acceleration, regardless of their primary role in the team.
