You Cannot Do That, Ben Stokes: AI-Powered Shot Typing in Cricket
About this episode
In this episode, we explore a groundbreaking study that uses personalized deep neural networks to predict not just where a ball will go, but the batsman’s intended shot. From eight years of international data and 16 field zones plus three aggression levels to personalized profiles for each batsman and bowler, we see how AI can reveal strategic patterns—and even simulate what-if scenarios from the 2019 World Cup final. We discuss implications for coaching, game strategy, and the future of cricket as data-driven decision-making expands on the field.
