Background: A common practice among sport scientists is to prescribe a targeted training load
for each training session. Loads captured in training should ideally align with what
was prescribed to ensure healthy adaptations. Otherwise, maladaptations to training
may occur, predisposing the athlete to overreaching, burnout, illness, or injury.
Most workload research in cricket fast bowling has not measured the intensity of a
delivery; a key component in profiling the demand of an activity. Elite fast bowlers
in Victoria have access to instantaneous feedback on their bowling speed during indoor
training that may help them adhere to a prescribed delivery intensity throughout a
session. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation was to determine the association
between prescribed and measured delivery intensity operationalised as bowling speed.
