Every state will appoint strength and conditioning coach, have sports medicine team: Jay Shah
Ahmedabad, May 27 (PTI) Keeping in mind the recent spate of injuries among Indian cricketers, the BCCI has decided to ask its state units to appoint their own strength and conditioning coaches and have in place sports science and sports medicine teams.
It was decided in the Board's Special General Meeting (SGM) on Saturday that each state unit will have strength and conditioning coaches interviewed by a panel from the National Cricket Academy.
"To address injury concerns of players, we have created a structure where every state association will appoint a strength and conditioning coach and a sport science and sports medicine team. The candidates will be interviewed by the NCA panel," BCCI secretary Jay Shah said after the SGM.
