Which bowlers are more vulnerable and need extra recovery?

Cricket Australia says some bowlers need more recovery than their peers and may need limits modified further. This includes bowlers who:

• have a known history of lumbar bone stress injury,
• have recently gone through a rapid growth period, or
• are taller and/or bowl faster than their peers.

The guidelines recommend these bowlers consult a medical professional experienced in managing lumbar bone stress injury to inform their programme. Teenage pace bowlers are described as being at the highest risk.
