Between scenarios, the greatest mean speed, heart rate and blood lactate responses occurred when the rules were changed, resulting in increased movement patterns (P < 0.05), most notably for batsmen and wicketkeepers. In contrast, altering the playing field size or player number did not significantly influence (P > 0.05) these responses. These results suggest that the physical demands of cricket-specific training can be increased via rule variations including hit-and-run activities, more so than field size or player number.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:39 AEDT ]]> Battlezone: an examination of the physiological responses, movement demands and reproducibility of small-sided cricket games https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24469 0.05). The reliability for the majority of movement demands and physiological responses were moderate to high (CV: 5−17%; ICC: 0.48−1.00) within all playing positions. These results suggest that the physiological responses and movement characteristics of generic small-sided cricket games were consistent between sessions within respective playing positions.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:17:21 AEDT ]]>
