Strike Rate: The Cricket Analytics Podcast
Sports:Cricket
On this episode of Strike Rate: The Cricket Analytics Podcast we invited Paul Nixon to join us. Paul Nixon had a 23 year career as a pro, played for England, played a World Cup, then has gone on to be a successful coach (winning the CPL) and spending a number of years working with Dan at Leicestershire.
In the podcast we talk to Paul about his time working as a coach, covering how he works with analytics and brings data into his coaching style. We discuss his time with Leicestershire and what role he filled as Head Coach, as well as how that differs to his time as the coach of the Jamaica Tallawahs.
In a great conversation we get into detail about where analysis was able to supplement his role as a coach, with particular successes including the breakthrough of Rishi Patel and the recruitment of Naveen Ul-Haq before he played in the IPL.
What role did his analyst (Dan Weston himself!) play at Leicestershire? What does he do when players are resistant to using data? What were some of his successes based on data?
