Rules for Cricket Match Analysis

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

I have seen many horary charts in the forum regarding IPL and other cricket

matchs and some of them have given prediction correct and some are wrong. The

people who went wrong in their prediction must have corrected their

RULE/Approach.

 

I would like to request the members those (VGR, ADIT, SUBHASH & others) who have

done the research/horary one cricket match to summarize all the RULES/Approaches

that are followed to conclude the result.

 

The RULE/Approach may give answer to the minimum following points.

 

1.Whether the match will be played as per scheduled DATE/TIME or not? Is there

any disturbance (due to Spectator/rain etc) while playing the match?

 

There are many reasons for this.

 

a) Some time the match may be cancelled due to RAIN or other reason and the

points will be given EQUAL.

 

b) The match may start with some delay due to some reason (may be RAIN) and

number of over will be reduced.

 

c) Some time the RAIN may come while the second team is playing and the match

may not continue if the RAIN is not stopped. So based on the minimum over played

any one team may get FULL or both will get EQUAL point or rematch (this I am

sure) etc based on the cricket rule.

 

d) One of the team may not accept the match location due to security reason

hence other team who is willing to play the match as per the scheduled location

may be given with FULL points without playing the match.

 

2.Who will win the TOSS? And what they will elect to play (FIELDING or BOWLING)

 

3.Finally who will WIN the match? And what will be score difference (may be some

percentage basis not exact!)

 

4.Any other additional point or general RULES/Approach/method to be considered

while predicting the results?

 

As it is a research forum, the some of the points raised above may be too

deep/detailed. Nevertheless we will find some way to reach it.

 

I request any one of our members (those who have done the research) voluntarily

come forward to summarize all the RULES/Approaches that are followed to conclude

the match result. This will help the forum members for further discussion and to

test/apply etc

 

Thanks and regards,
