How do you keep the cricket player free from tension?

Answer 1

Cricket is a competitive sport, so there will always be some tension! However, here are some tips that might help.

(a) Prepare well. A well prepared player is a confident player.

(b) Short Goals. During match play, the player should analyse the match situation and go for short term goals. For example, a batsman may target making 18 runs in 3 overs. This is helpful because the player always knows what to do and avoids the stress that can come from having big targets.

(c) Do yoga. Yoga is extremely relaxing and it is impossible to feel tense while doing yoga. So do yoga half an hour before match starts.
