Abstract

The present study was investigatedto prepare a model Fitness test and to know the relationship of core stability with total fitness level of male professional cricketers. Randomly 40 (Forty) male professional cricketers aged 22 - 28 years were selected. Test and measurements were administered for 50 yards Dash for speed, Cooper test for endurance, Run-3 test for agility, 1 min Push-Up test for shoulder strength, Vertical jump for explosive leg strength, Sit and Reach test for Hip flexibility and Plank hold test for core stability. Statistical analysis was done only after extracting outlier data. The remaining data was calculated in 10th percentile and established a 10 point rating scale. Data were then normalized using Z-score technique. The total fitness score was derived from 10th point percentile scale to ascertain each variable separately and calculated out of 70 marks to justify the model test. Statistical technique Pearson Product Moment correlation test was applied to establish the relationship between core stability and total fitness score of professional cricketers, at 0.01 level. The result reveals a significant relationship (r=.674) between core stability and total fitness scores of the professional male cricketers.
