What level of statistical analysis are the players using? When a Shakib is setting up field placings or an individual fielder is deciding how much to "walk in", are they doing this with the type of knowledge such as, "the opposition batter hits 60% of leg side full deliveries into this spot and 30% of them are in the air"?
With fielders who are not natural athletes what is your approach? "Hiding them" in the outfield or identifying redeeming attributes and up-skilling them in that area to make them specialists? For e.g. Junaed is slow but seems to be a decent close catcher.
