The properties of the high spin states of the neutron-rich 98-102Sr and 100-104Zr isotopes have been st udied using the projected shell model. In particular, the upbending phenomenon is investigated for these isotopes along the yrast line. The results show that the occurrence of upbending phenomenon is attributed to the band crossing between ground state band and 2-qp neutron band having configuration 2vh11/2[-3/2, 5/2], K = 1. Furthermore, the neutron two-quasi-particle structure of side bands in 98SR-102Zr is discussed in this paper.
