Buckley says ‘Cricket is unique sport in terms of its demands on the body and therefore requires very specific conditioning’.
Youths are typically weaker than adults and more prone to injury. In these sub-elite stages of sport development the gap between youth strength levels and the stressors they place on their bodies is large.

As they repeat the same actions over and over again the risk of overuse increases. Bowlers are a good example of this. Bowling places a lot of strain on the body, in particular the back and shoulders. Targeted strength training can offset this repetition, protecting the body and preventing injury. Strength and conditioning helps in the following ways:
Stronger muscles generate more power improving batting, bowling and throwing distance. They also increase running acceleration, support joints and with training designed to increase strength in a wide range of movement the risk of injury is minimized further.
Get Faster. Bowling speed will be increased. Getting to the ball faster in the field means less runs for the other team while faster sprint times equals more runs for you.
Being fitter raises your capacity to focus and be sharper when batting, bowling and catching. Endurance for repetitive sprinting means more runs while increased attention equates to faster reaction times and efficiency.
