Regression Analysis

Bowlers
Batters


"Our player rating system looks at the outcome of every ball bowled in the group stages of the tournament, and generates ratings based on a combination of two factors. For batters these are how well they preserve their wicket, and how quickly they score runs. For bowlers these are how well they keep the runs down, and how much of a wicket taking threat they have been.

These player ratings use regression modelling to account for the quality of their opposition, which means that, for example, the wicket of David Warner is worth more to the bowler than that of, say, Mark Wood, and that runs scored off Jasprit Bumrah are worth more than those scored off poor old Rashid Khan."
