Compare T11: max of roughly 84 match hours per season, and, with 1 full training session per day, 46.67 hours of training (assuming the time of training is equivalent to the time between training availability).

So comparatively, we should have about twice as many match injuries (84 hours in T11 vs 41 match hours IRL) and somewhere between 20% and 40% of the IRL training injury rate (IF we accept the training time assumption above)
Your first mistake here is comparing a mean to a MAX.

Second, the values stated for Match hours (on the study) are a mean per player, not per team. If you do a quick math, Premier league has 38 league matches per team, i believe, considering 1.5 hours per match would give you 57 match hours, league alone. The study also represents top European Clubs, so you'd have to add CL and Cup games, at least (there are other competitions that add up to the statistics)


Compare T11 28 day season, which is compressed into roughly 9% of the time.
Thus a severe injury in T11 (>28 days IRL, would be ~ 3 days) and you should expect 7 of those per season (8 * (22/25)) and on average each and every player on your squad should miss about 3.5 days out of every season.
I had 7 you qualify as severe in 5 days, and none of the light ones. Maybe an exception ?!? (i always play on normal, full condition players)
