Cricket is a bat-and-ball sport involving batting, bowling, and fielding, played by two teams of eleven players. The physical demands vary by position — fast bowlers run repeatedly and generate significant upper body power, batsmen combine sprinting between wickets with powerful hitting, and fielders perform explosive sprints and diving catches. A typical cricket match involves extended periods of moderate activity interspersed with bursts of high-intensity effort, providing both aerobic and anaerobic conditioning.
