“…Analysis of fine-grained sports data plays a pivotal role in data-driven decision-making in all aspects of sports management (Fried & Mumcu, 2016). Many machine learning models have been proposed for game modeling and match outcome prediction for soccer (Bai, Gedik, & Egilmez, 2022;Davis, Bransen, Decroos, Robberechts, & Haaren, 2019;, basketball (Deshpande & Jensen, 2016), and hockey (Liu & Schulte, 2018;Lord, Pyne, Welvaert, & Mara, 2022). However, data-driven decision-making has not received much attention in cricket, which has the second-highest viewership (Sankaranarayanan, Sattar, & Lakshmanan, 2014) after soccer and is a multi-billion dollar industry.…”

Cricket is the second most popular sport after soccer in terms of viewership. However, the assessment of individual player performance, a fundamental task in team sports, is currently primarily based on aggregate performance statistics, including average runs and wickets taken. We propose Context-Aware Metric of player Performance, camp, to quantify individual players' contributions toward a cricket match outcome. camp employs data mining methods and enables effective datadriven decision-making for selection and drafting, coaching and training, team lineups, and strategy development. camp incorporates the exact context of performance, such as opponents' strengths and specific circumstances of games, such as pressure situations. We empirically evaluate camp on data of limited-over cricket matches between 2001 and 2019. In every match, a committee of experts declares one player as the best player, called Man of the Match (MoM). The top two rated players by camp match with MoM in 83% of the 961 games. Thus, the camp rating of the best player closely matches that of the domain experts. By this measure, camp significantly outperforms the current best-known players' contribution measure based on the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (dls) method.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop a field hockey-specific training program based on high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and to verify its effectiveness by observing changes in individual movements during international competitions for female field hockey players.METHODS: The field hockey-specific training program was developed based on HIIT (≥95%HRmax, work:rest ratio=1:1) through meetings with experts’ and the participation of 13 female field hockey players who were enrolled in the Korean national team. Participants were trained for nine weeks (27 sessions) using this training program. Their individual movements were collected using GPS units during the Four Nations competitions and the 2022 Asian Games before and after applying the training program. Individual movements were defined as total distance covered, meters per minute (MpM), maximal velocity (MV), absolute distance, proportion of total distance covered at low-intensity (LI), moderate-intensity (MI), and high-intensity (HI), and number of accelerations, decelerations, and sprint efforts (SE).RESULTS: After applying the training program, the MpM (9.6 m/min), MV (0.69 km/hr), and SE (3.47 bouts) improved compared to before applying the program. Further, after applying the training program, the absolute distance (633.94 m) and the proportion (14.83%) at LI decreased, while those of MI (553.40 m and 9.78%) and HI (273.07 m and 5.05%) increased compared to before applying the program.CONCLUSIONS: The field hockey-specific training program developed in this study resulted in positive changes in individual movements during competitions, leading to improvements in team and individual performance.
