Background: Hand grip strength and mid upper arm circumference, mid upper arm area, tricep skin fold thickness has been an indicator for determining strength. Objectives: The purpose of study was to found out for correlation of mid upper arm circumference, mid upper arm area, tricep skin fold thickness with hand grip strength in cricket players. Material and Methods: Total 30 healthy cricket (1525 years), from district sport academy, regularly practicing from last 3 years at university level and who don’t have any abnormality of upper arm or any neurological problem, history of fracture of hand were included. Measurement of hand grip strength with help of Sahens hand grip digital dynamometer was done. Mean of three reading was taken as final reading. Mid upper arm area calculated by formula (Mid upper arm circumference) 2/4p. Mid Upper Arm Circumference measured by measuring tape. Tricep skin fold thickness is measured by harpendence calliper. Pearson correlation coefficient established a correlation of mid upper arm circumference, mid upper arm area, tricep skin fold thickness with hand grip strength. Result: It was also found that ,statistically there was positive correlation observed between hand grip strength with mid upper arm circumference, mid upper arm area and highly significant negative correlation between hand grip strength with tricep skin fold thickness in cricket players. Conclusion: Proper training for maintaining mid upper arm circumference, mid upper arm area, tricep skin fold thickness and hand grip strength will increase in hand grip strength. It will further lead to better strength and performance in cricket activities like bowling, fielding etc.
