Sachin Tendulkar, India s star batsman and arguably the world s best batsman is facing a back injury that has caused him to stay out of cricket arena for quite some time now. Courtney Walsh has injured his knee before the start of series against Zimbabwe. He needs 9 more wickets to break the record of Kapil Dev s 434 wickets. Shane Warne also has fitness problems. A very talented quickie from Pakistan, Mohammad Zahid is now out of the cricket arena for a very long time because of a back injury.
Cricket nowadays is a very demanding and full-time job.
Cricket is a profession now not a hobby. This required a lot of hard work for the fitness of player. Every team has qualified persons for the maintenance of the players. Minor injuries, which cause the players to pull out of two to three matches, are something that should be avoided or overcome. These injuries are mainly due to carelessness of players, as they don t give a lot of time towards their fitness.
