Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Cricket is transformed over the years and dynamic of batting has changed. Gone are the days, when batters used to play the game with defensive mindset. Maintaining higher striker rate and arsenal of power hitting is the epitome of stroke play in limited overs cricket.This study will compare the effects of the nerve gliding exercises and conventional grip strength exercises on handgrip strength, range of motion and performance of cricket batters. It will be a randomized clinical trial where non-probability convenience sampling will be used to recruit participants aged 18 to 35 years from various cricket academies in Lahore.
