Abstract The purpose of the present study was to compare the acute effects of suryanamaskar and dynamic stretching on the motor performances of Club Level Cricket Players. Thirty players competing in the Club level Leagues took part in the study. The training protocols consisted of 10 mins suryanamaskar and Dynamic Stretching protocol was a series of specific progressive exercises lasting a total of 10 minutes over a distance of 20m with a jog recovery (Young, 2007). The data collected without warm-up at baseline and immediately after the completion of two types of warm-up protocols namely Suryanamaskar and Dynamic Stretching the Speed, Upper-Body, and Shoulder muscular strength endurance, Core Stability, Balance, & Static Strength, Agility, Explosive leg power and were statistically analyzed by using a t-test. P value<0.05 was considered significant for this study. After the warm up protocol, the effect of suryanamaskar and dynamic stretching has shown a high positive significant effect when compared to the baseline values of no warm-up protocol in eliciting the greatest performance in speed, agility movements, upper-body & shoulder muscular strength endurance, core stability, balance, & static strength and explosive leg power by decreased sprinting time, agility test time and increased the number of push-up in one min., time in prone hold test and distance of vertical jump test. No significant difference was found after the warm-up protocols among the motor performance between the two groups. Based on the limitation of the study it can be concluded that both the protocol can be used during warm up sessions.
