  • Complex Network Characteristics and Team Performance in the Game of Cricket
    Complex Network Characteristics and Team Performance in the Game of Cricket Rudra M. Tripathy1, Amitabha Bagchi2, and Mona Jain2 1 Silicon Institute of Technology, Bhubaneshwar, India 2 Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, India Abstract. In this paper a complex network model is used to analyze the game of cricket. The nodes of this network are individual players and edges are placed between players who have scored runs in partnership. Results of these complex network models based on partnership are com- pared with performance of teams. Our study examines Test cricket, One Day Internationals (ODIs) and T20 cricket matches of the Indian Pre- mier League (IPL). We find that complex network properties: average degree, average strength and average clustering coefficient are directly related to the performance (win over loss ratio) of the teams, i.e., teams having higher connectivity and well-interconnected groups perform bet- ter in Test matches but not in ODIs and IPL. For our purpose, the basic difference between different forms of the game is duration of the game: Test cricket is played for 5-days, One day cricket is played only for a single day and T20 is played only for 20 overs in an inning. In this re- gard, we make a clear distinction in social network properties between the Test, One day, and T20 cricket networks by finding relationships between average weight with their end point’s degrees. We know that performance of teams varies with time - for example West Indies, who had established themselves as the best team during 1970s now is one of the worst teams in terms of results.

    The Indian Premier League (IPL) is an Indian professional league for men's Twenty20 cricket clubs with double round- robin and playoffs. Without any Twenty20 cricket league system, it is India's primary Twenty20 cricket club competition. Currently contested by eight clubs, it does not operates on a system of promotion and relegation. Only Indian clubs are qualify to play in the Premier League. Seasons run in the Indian summer spanning between April and June, with most games are played in the afternoons. The competition was formed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2008 after an altercation between the BCCI and the now-defunct Indian Cricket League.[1] The Premier League is headquartered in Mumbai,Maharashtra,[2][3] and is currently supervised by BCCI Vice-President Ranjib Biswal, who serves as the League's Chairman and Commissioner.[4] The Premier League is the most-watched Twenty20 cricket league in the world. It is generally considered to be the highest- profile showcase in the world for Twenty20 club cricket, the shortest form of professional cricket with just 20overs per innings. IPL is as well known for its commercial success and for the quality of Twenty20 cricket played. During the sixth IPL season (2013) its brand value was estimated to be around US$3.03 billion.[5][6] Live rights to the event are syndicated around the globe, and in 2010, the IPL became the first sporting event to be broadcast live on YouTube.[7] It is currently sponsored by Pepsi and thus officially known as the Pepsi Indian Premier League.[8] Two eligible bids were received, with Pepsi winning over Airtel with a bid of 3968 million.[9]However, the League has been the subject of several controversies where allegations of cricket betting, money laundering and spot fixing were witnessed.[10][11] Of the 11 clubs to have competed since the inception of the Premier League in 2008, five have won the title:Chennai Super Kings (2), Rajasthan Royals (1), Deccan Chargers (1), Kolkata Knight Riders (1) and Mumbai Indians (1).

  • 02, Jun 2016 the Lions Show in Saurashtra IPL Debutant Gujarat
    02, Jun 2016 The Lions show in Saurashtra IPL debutant Gujarat Lions almost scripted a fairy tale, they lost in the virtual semifinal, but they won many hearts not only in Rajkot but everywhere they played, but undoubtedly the foundation was laid at the Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) Stadium in Khanderi. A look at all their five matches which they played in one of the most magnificent stadium in the world… Match No 1 Lions off to a great start The home team started their campaign in Rajkot with a crushing seven-wicket win against Rising Pune Supergiants. It was billed as the match between MS Dhoni versus his boys as most of the Gujarat Lions players this year are former Dhoni’s team mates when he was leading the now disbanded Chennai Super Kings team. Batting first Supergiants looked set for a score in excess of 180, but a superb display of defensive bowling towards the end turned the contest in Lions' favour. Aaron Finch and Brendon McCullum then effectively killed the game by pillaging 62 in the Powerplay, during their chase of 164. MS Dhoni had pulled back some momentum for Supergiants by contributing to a 20-run last over in the first innings, but his bowlers threw it all away. Loose deliveries stacked up, and the Lions openers duly dispatched them.
