We generate batting partnership network (BPN) for different teams and determine the exact values of clustering coefficient, average degree, average shortest path length of the networks and compare them with the Erd¨os-R´enyi model. We observe that the networks display small-world behavior. We find that most connected batsman is not necessarily the most central and most central players are not necessarily the one with high batting averages. We study the community structure of the BPNs and identify each player’s role based on inter-community and intra-community links. We observe that Sir DG Bradman, regarded as the best batsman in Cricket history does not occupy the central position in the network − the so-called connector hub. We extend our analysis to quantify the performance, relative importance and effect of removing a player from the team, based on different centrality scores. Keywords: Complex network; Small world behavior; Centrality scores; Cricket. Introduction In recent years there has been an increase in study of activities involving team sports. Time series analysis have been applied to football [1, 2], baseball [3, 4], basketball [5, 6, 7] and soccer [8, 9].
