• People play cricket in India at various levels of
  competition starting from schools to colleges to
  national and international levels. Injuries are
  common during cricket and especially common if
  adequate care is not taken. The commonest mistake
  is to ignore a small injury and to continue
  playing. This will aggravate a small problem to a
  bigger one, before one stops playing at
  competitive level. Shoulder injuries are very
  common among sports professionals and especially
  among cricket players. Injuries are the commonest
  reason people give up playing competitive sports.
  If you are looking to play competitive cricket or
  even for social entertainment, looking after your
  shoulders is important to avoid future damage.

Technique Cricketers use their shoulder
extensively during bowling and long distance
throwing. Getting the basics of bowling and
throwing is very important. Rotator cuff muscle
tears, shoulder dislocations, SLAP tears etc are
some of the injuries. They can occur due to poor
technique or inadequate exercises. In spite of
best available care, international cricketers
like Sachin Tendulkar, Sehwag, Dravid etc have
sustained injuries and were successfully treated.

• Muscle Imbalance
•  
• Imbalance in the shoulder muscles can lead to
  various injuries. Most people also make the
  mistake of only exercising the muscles in the
  front like Biceps and Pectorals. This causes an
  imbalance between the muscles in the front and
  back of the shoulder. On the long run, this
  imbalance can cause pain. It is very important to
  warm up adequately before playing and to stretch
  the muscles after playing. Exercising the rotator
  cuff muscles, shoulder blade muscles should be a
  routine part of everyday exercises.
•  
• Posture
•  
• Neck shoulder and upper body posture is the key
  to avoid long term pains. Sitting posture while
  studying for students, while working on computers
  for professionals or even bike riding are all
  extremely important to avoid neck and shoulder
  problems. Down sloping of the shoulder blades is
  the commonest reason of shoulder pain among
  Tennis and Cricket players. Postural advice
  should be taken from your physiotherapist and
  regularly followed.
•  
• If in doubt, you must consult sports injury
  specialist. But now with increasing technical
  advances and sports injury specialists available
  in the city, advanced sports injury care is a
  reality.
