Exercises for the busy cricketer!

Step up and press Single leg stance with elevated arms fully engages trunk stabilizers. Hold a 5-10kg weight or medicine ball to the chest and step up on to a gym bench. Drive the opposite knee as high as possible. Progress this by pressing the weight above the head as you step, or challenging the core and shoulders further by holding the weight above the head throughout the entire movement. Another variation to challenge the stabilising systems of the hips, trunk and shoulders is to use dumbbells to perform a single arm press.
