Actually, cricket is not just a game, it is a full-body exercise. As a result, in addition to increasing muscle strength, the risk of heart disease is also reduced. Be it batting, bowling, fielding, all of them burn a considerable amount of calories. Playing cricket can burn an average of 300 to 600 calories in an hour. However, it all depends on how hard he works.

According to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, a person weighing 60 kg consumes 295 calories, a person weighing 70 kg and a person weighing 86 kg consumes 352 calories and 431 calories respectively. While batting, running 22 yards, and hitting shots, a lot of energy is lost. Fast bowlers burn as many calories as they burn, while spin bowlers burn relatively less calories.

The way to burn the most calories by playing cricket:

Running between the wickets – the more runs you score while running, the more calories you burn.

Fielding – The more you make your body run while fielding, the better. That is why the fittest players are sent to field near the boundary line. So that they can catch the ball quickly and dive.

Bowling – A bowler also burns a lot of calories. Especially fast bowlers.

Along with these, it is also important to eat a balanced diet. Especially eat foods rich in protein and carbohydrates and make sure that there is enough water in the body.
