  • Performance Analysis of T20-World Cup Cricket 2012 Ananda B
    Sri Lankan Journal of Applied Statistics, Vol (14-1) Performance Analysis of T20-World Cup Cricket 2012 Ananda B. W. Manage*, Stephen M. Scariano and Cecil R. Hallum Sam Houston State University Huntsville, Texas, USA 77341 Corresponding Author (Email: [email protected]) Received: 13 February 2013 / Revised: 15 May 2013 ABSTRACT Performance analysis of cricket players is always an intricate task due to the correlated nature of the variables used to quantify contributions to the team. Lack of transparency of current methods, probably due to commercial confidentiality, creates a necessity for new and lucent evaluative methods. Here, we present a simple, yet straightforward, method for analyzing the performance of T20-World Cup Cricket 2012 players that can be easily adapted to other team sports. Keywords: Cricket, Principal Component Analysis, Ranking Methods. 1. Introduction Quantifying individual player contributions to a team is an important yet difficult task in all team sports. Usually, there are several indicators available to measure player performances, which are based on different aspects of their contributions to the team. Unfortunately these indicators are mostly related to each other in a manner that oftentimes causes difficulty in constructing an overall performance measure. Our idea is to use a tool acquired from multivariate statistical analysis and apply it directly to T20-World Cup Cricket 2012 data. In this method, the first principal component is used to rank batsmen and bowlers. The technique is simple and can be directly applied to the type of correlated data routinely found in team sports such as cricket. Cricket administrators and sports analysts can use this amenable method to quantify players’ contribution, which could lead to a ranking structure based on their performances.

    Sports43 FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2017 CRICKET Wade confident back Will endure India test MUMBAI: Australia wicketkeeper Matthew Wade is confident his back problem will not flare up during the team’s four-test series in India, the 29-year-old said yesterday. Wade abandoned the recent one-day tour of New Zealand to return home to manage a bulging disc before joining his team mates at a pre-series training camp in Dubai. “It’s just something that I’ll have to manage,” Wade told reporters at Mumbai’s Brabourne Stadium. “The disc just bulged a little bit but it just hit one of the nerves, so it took a little while to come right. “I’ve done it before, touch wood it doesn’t happen again but if it does I’m confident that I can turn it around pretty quick.” Australia will take on world number one India in the first of the four tests at Pune next Thursday and Wade is aware that his keeping techniques will be thoroughly tested in India’s spin-friendly condi- tions. “It’s trying to get all that out of your mind and stick to the basics,” the Victoria captain said. “The ball that turns and bounces, you’ll react if your technique’s good. “It’s about trying to hone my technique in the next week or two, then when you do get one that spits out of the rough it’s just trusting your technique. “But I quite enjoy keeping over here, the ball beats the bat a lot more up to the stumps so that’s probably the challenge.
