The present study is to find out the analysis of the changes on game specific fitness components and physiological parameters in response to concurrent training among rural and urban cricket players.30 male players who have represented the zonal level were selected from rural and urban area Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu. The age of the subjects range from 20 to 24. They were divided into two groups of fifteen in each. One group was act as the experimental group and another was as control group. The experimental group was undergoing the concurrent training for 12 weeks 3 days per week. Each training session was for one hour in the evening from 4.00 PM to 5.00 PM. To achieve the result, the collected data on following criterion measures namely specific fitness components that is cardio respiratory endurance and physiological parameters that is forced vital capacity. The standardized tests were taken before and after the concurrent training. Cardio respiratory endurance was tested using cooper’s 12 minutes run/walk and forced vital capacity was tested using spirometer. The paired‘t’ test were applied to analyzed the collected data and in all cases the criteria for the statistical significance will be set at 0.05 level of confidence.
