Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between anthropometric variables and batting performance in cricket. The subjects selected for the present study were those who have played cricket game as batsmen during the session 2019-20. For the present study 200 batsmen of inter collegiate level were selected. The age of the subjects ranged from 18-25 years. Anthropometric rod and portable lever actuated weighing machine were used for measuring height and weight. To measure the circumferences a flexible steel tape was used. Vernier caliper and anthropometric compass was used for Diameters. The results showed linear measurements i.e. age, weight, height, foot length, forearm length, hand length have positive and important correlation whereas foot width, leg length, total arm length have negative and significant correlations with performance of batsmen. Also the results showed that girth measurements i.e. Chest, Calf, thigh and shoulder have positive and noteworthy association whereas hip has negative and significant correlation with performance of batsmen.
