A specialised Cricket Data Analysis workshop was conducted for Provincial and District Coaches attached to the Dambulla Super Province, representing the North Central, North Western and Northern Provinces. The program aimed to help coaches use match and training data more effectively to plan sessions, monitor player progress and make evidence-based coaching decisions.

During the session, coaches were introduced to key data concepts such as setting performance KPIs, recording training and match information, and interpreting statistics to identify player strengths and areas for improvement. Practical examples were used to demonstrate how simple tools such as scorecards, spreadsheets and video insights can be transformed into clear reports that support selection, talent identification and long-term player development.

The workshop also focused on integrating data into day-to-day coaching routines, including how to track workload, compare players across formats and communicate information clearly to athletes and support staff. Coaches were encouraged to develop their own data templates and reporting formats that suit their provincial and district environments while aligning with national high-performance standards.
