This function is a specialized version of getPlayer Data. This function gets the players data along with details on matches' venue (home/abroad) and the result of match(won,lost,drawn) as 2 separate columns (ha & result). The column ha has 1:home and 2: overseas. The column result has values 1:won , 2;lost and :drawn match

1 2	getPlayerDataSp(profileNo, tdir = "./data", tfile = "player001.csv", ttype = "batting")

`profileNo`	This is the profile number of the player to get data. This can be obtained from https://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/content/player/index.html. Type the name of the player and click search. This will display the details of the player. Make a note of the profile ID. For e.g For Sachin Tendulkar this turns out to be https://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/player/35320.html. Hence the profile for Sachin is 35320
`tdir`	Name of the directory to store the player data into. If not specified the data is stored in a default directory "./data". Default="./tdata"
`tfile`	Name of the file to store the data into for e.g. tendulkar.csv. This can be used for subsequent functions. Default="player001.csv"
`ttype`	type of data required. This can be "batting" or "bowling"
