Tai Cricket

India -- Ancient Chinese martial art Tai Chi would form part of the regular training programme for cricketers from this year at the MRF Pace Foundation.

"Tai Chi helps in giving physical training and making people mentally strong. It helps players keep their cool on field during a match," T A Sekhar, chief coach at the Foundation, said yesterday.

Sekhar said the martial art had been introduced at the Pace Foundation last year.

The Indian cricket team had sessions on Tai Chi to help them focus and concentrate better and also improve their overall fitness and body control, he said.
