Indian Cricket National Cricket team coach, Gautam Gambhir Support Member Adrian Le Roux
Ravichandran Ashwin said that the introduction of the Bronco test at the Indian cricket with the arrival of the new force and the conditioning coach, Adrian Le Roux, will make things difficult for the players and could even cause injury.
Bronco test entered in the Indian cricket
According to The Indian Express reports, the Cricket Control Council in India (BCCI) has introduced the Bronco test as a new point of reference for fitness for Indian cricketers.
Your daily dose of cricket!
This has been done after Adrian Le Roux replaced Soham Desai as a coach of strength and conditioning, under the orientation of the main coach Gautam Gambhir.
The Bronco test will complement the existing Yo-Yo test and the 2 kilometer test to evaluate the physical form of the players, especially focused on the resistance and cardiovascular health.
The Bronco Test is a high -intensity aerobic resistance test originally designed for rugby and involves shuttle routes of more than 20 meters, 40 meters and 60 meters.
A set includes executing the three distances, and the player repeats the set five times continuously, for a total of 1,200 meters without rest. All players must complete the test within six minutes.
Above all, the reason for fitness reference changes has been the levels of subpar fitness of some Indian patients who were observed by the coaches during the tour of England.
The coach changes, the training schemes change – Ravichandran Ashwin warns Gautam Gambhir
In a video shared on his ‘Ash Ki Baat’ YouTube channel, Ravichandran Ashwin warned the main coach Gautam Gambhir, saying that changes in training schemes will be difficult for players and some could also hurt.
“I have always asked coaches. When coaches change, the test mechanism changes. The coach changes, the training schemes change. When this happens, players have many difficulties. As a player, if you continue to change the training schemes, it is virtually difficult for the players. In many cases, I could also cause injuries. I do not neglect that it has led to injury,” said Ravichandran Ashwin.
“From 2017 to 2019, I was looking for my training scheme. I have endured this. Soham Desai knows everything,” added Ravichandran Ashwin.
I just want to ask some questions: Ravichandran Ashwin
Ravichandran Ashwin urged the BCCI to maintain the continuity of the fitness tests and requested the proper training of the new force and conditioning coach under the outgoing before playing a permanent role.
“I just want to ask a few questions. As a player, the problem is a continuity. I would like to continue a continuity. It is important to give it. I just want a new coach to come in, I would have to work with the coming coach for six months to a year to give the delivery,” said Ravichandran Ashwin.
“It is important to address this problem. India has all the money and the media. This continuity must be pending. As a wrap thought, I would only say that something is not to be changed. If something works, it must be discussed and then changed” Ravichandran Ashwin.
