Abstract: This study aims to compare the auditory and visual reaction times of district-level male cricket and baseball players. Reaction time is crucial in sports, affecting performance and decision-making under pressure. Thirty cricket players and thirty baseball players were tested using standard reaction time tests. The data were analyzed using the independent samples t-test. Results indicated a significant difference in auditory reaction time, with baseball players responding faster. No significant difference was observed in visual reaction time. The findings suggest that the nature and demands of the sport influence the type of sensory processing developed in players.
