Australian bowlers have been asked to use room towels to maintain strength in their arms during lockdown and quarantine. With no cricket for up to a month before they fly to West Indies for two white-ball series, the Aussies are discovering novel ways, including using towels, to keep fit during the phase. "Our trainer has sent us a programme, an exercise for us to try out to keep our throwing up in lockdown," Pat Cummins had said on a YouTube show.
"Which is, you get a hand towel or a small towel and you tie a knot at the end of it. It 9the knot) almost looks like a cricket ball and you bowl in your room and you feel a bit of resistance while bowling," he added while explaining the method.
