DoG's ODI Batting and Bowling Performances

[Days of Grace]

Inspired by this thread http://www.cricketweb.net/forum/threads/the-greatest-odi-innings-of-all-time.89487/, I decided to begin work on the greatest ODI batting and bowling performances using my own system, which is very similar to the one I use for rating test performances.

The criteria for ODI batting performances:
Runs
Strike-rate
Conditions
Point of entry (the team's situation when the batsman walked out to bat)
Fall of wickets while at the crease
Largest partnership involved in
Runs with the lower order (6th wicket and below)
Match result
Importance of the match
Opposition (measured by ICC bowler ratings at the completion of the match)
Chasing a target (points awarded for any target above 250)
Margin of win (points deducted for first innings performances)

[Socerer 01]

where would Zaman’s CT final 100 rank on this list? and Kohli’s 183 against Pakistan and 160 against South Africa? the latter was famous for him getting 100 runs without a boundary at the end on a hot day, does that get reflected in any way?

love the list and the work you have put into it

Brilliant work. Minor error about the opposition that Stokes batted against in his knock though.

Thanks for pointing out that mistake. Still dealing with the trauma so subconsciously entered England instead of NZ!

Still dealing with the trauma

Healing takes time

 

[Flem274*]

Looks good so far bro. Can't wait for a full list and if you wanted, another big countdown?

 

[Days of Grace]

I will do a countdown of the top 100 test batsmen and bowlers sometime this year.

 

[Migara]

Strike rate needs to be era adjusted.

 

[Days of Grace]

Strike rate needs to be era adjusted.

The strike-rates of each innings are compared to the strike-rates of other batsmen in the same match so I don’t think any adjustments are necessary.

The strike-rates of each innings are compared to the strike-rates of other batsmen in the same match so I don’t think any adjustments are necessary.

So it only shows where they stand in the match. Not in the era. Not the same thing I am afraid. Good innings in a match where opposition had a disastrous end , would show it as a very good innings (for ex. Jayasuriya's 189, where the opposition was actually done by bowlers)

Dave Houghton 142 against NZ

You are worried strike rates within the same game will not show the full story and yet you feel an "era SR" encompassing every different type of pitch across the world would be a more accurate relative measure?

 

[Shri]

do only winning innings qualify? because sachin's desert storm knock or his 98 vs pak in the 2003 wc not making it while michael bracewell's does is very amusing

Desert storm is there . Below Desilva’s knock .

Desert storm is there . Below Desilva’s knock .

desert storm was 143. final was 134

Some recent England ones I remember fondly are

Buttler 129 vs NZ, Edgbaston 2015
Moeen Ali 102 vs West Indies, Bristol 2017
Pietersen 100* vs SA, East London 2005
Morgan 103* vs Australia, Southampton 2010

 

[Migara]

You are worried strike rates within the same game will not show the full story and yet you feel an "era SR" encompassing every different type of pitch across the world would be a more accurate relative measure?

SRs in the same game tends to be skewed by extremely bad or extremely good performances/ The chance of era adjusted stats is skewed far less even by extreme outliers. if outliers affect the baseline then it creates a issue.

Hmm interesting cos I reckon Sachin has about 3 knocks better than the ones that actually made the list!

I wrote in the original post that this is a work in progress. What Tendulkar knocks would you like me to check?
