Abstract

The best performance of a fast bowler in cricket is dependent on a variety of factors. Some of these variables, like running speed, aerobic capacity, and jump heights, etc., are simple to measure. Anthropometry has been employed in numerous attempts to associate physical characteristics with racial and psychological features, for the purpose of identifying talent, to comprehend human physical variation, in anthropometry, and for various other purposes. The current study is being conducted to provide answers to these questions. Arm length, leg length, hand length, shoulder width, wrist diameter, elbow width, and palm length and width were the study's chosen variables. The fast bowlers' t-scale profile can be used to determine the optimal anthropometric of other athletes.
