Zusammenfassung:The mean age of the athletes was 29.5 ± 5.3 years, mode bra size 12B, range 8A–12G; International Cricket (ICC) rankings: full member countries n=37 (41.6%) and associate member countries n=52 (58.4%). The probability of experiencing breast-related issues did not vary with age, breast size, training duration, playing experience, or ICC rankings (p>0.05). [...]to previous research, we attributed the lack of difference in prevalence and severity data with breast size to the relatively small model bra size of the elite female cricket players.
