MathSport International 2017

[weldone]

I am going to present a paper co-authored with two of my (ex-)Professors in MathSport International 2017. The paper is titled 'Value Added As A Measure For Analyzing Batting Performance In Odi Cricket'. In short, we are applying the concept of EVA (Economic Value Added) to rate ODI batsmen. As some of you know, I am presently working on ODI batsmen and bowlers ranking. This is somewhat related to that - although my detailed ranking methodology involves many other concepts in addition to EVA. I shall publish my ranking in CW in a few days' time.

Looking at the wide variety of interesting topics being presented at the Conference, it is going to be a really exciting 3 days for me.

The schedule sounds very interesting, lots of topics that I'm sure I would enjoy. How likely would an International body adapt a new concept at this event? Congrats.

Indeed. It seemed really exciting when I looked at the topics for the first time.

Thanks. Didn't understand your question..

Congrats! Topics look really interesting despite me not knowing anything about the models being used.

"Math" is what yanks say, and its infected us over here too. Bug bear of mine for no rational reason. It was always "maths".

Good work mate. I can tell you though that if three Indian blokes are getting together to do a statistical approach to cricket then the correct answer is "Tendulkar".

I didn't name the Conference mate. But I thought their logic was maths+sport=mathsport

And Kohli if they are young

MathSport International 2017 was a memorable experience. The beautiful University of Padua provided the perfect setting. It was great to meet many like-minded people who have independently been thinking about similar problems. Our paper has been received well by the community.

Glad to hear it well and you had a good time.

Can you share the paper?

 

[weldone]

I'll share a better version of the rankings with the logic. You may like that more than the dry paper.
