I also tried to embed the above link Jimbob and not embedding for some reason. Maybe the mods can have a look at the application. Pete :cheers:

Do most bowlers end their career due to shoulder rotator cup damage? I watch these guys and bowling in cricket must be the most unnatural way imaginable to propel a projectile. An arm simply is not built to throw that way and stay undamaged. Pete :cheers:

IMO fast bowlers get more injuries to the knee and back. Spinners and medium speed bowlers very few injuries. The fast bowlers injuries seem to occur in the last 2 strides of the run up, I have no stats to back this just watching cricket for a long time.
Woke up this morning breathing that's a good start to the day.

you can see from this chart that 70% of old elite bowlers suffer disc problems. Back problems dominate
