Wonder what the odds of that were?

wow..........

Is there any way to remove the minnow matches from the aggregate records? I think this WC was higher scoring overall compared to previous ones.

Great find.

Here you go, top-8 sides only. Though IIRC the top 8 sides were slightly different in 2007...

Not much difference anyway. 1996 and 1987 still have the highest averages.

That only excludes minnow-v-minnow, though, and still includes, say, Australia v Canada.

I've had a play, too, and I can't figure out a way to exclude the latter.

No, I tried that, but it doesn't work (not for the purpose I intended anyway). Will still include games like Kenya vs. NZ, Kenya vs. SL etc. I want a filter that only includes matches involving any two members of the top 10 teams (India, SL, Pakistan, NZ, Australia, SA, England, WI, Bangladesh and Ireland).

EDIT : Or what Pickup said.

EDIT EDIT : Wondering whether Bangladesh should be included, they have a couple of horrific batting performances in there. Bangladesh vs. WI and Bangladesh vs. SA must be bringing that average down a fair bit.

Did it manually

Ah, I see.

If you exclude Bangladesh from this year, remember to exclude India from last time.

OK, having had another look at that original filter Pickup posted, you can see a pretty marked increase in the RR. Though the average runs/wicket doesn't change much from previous WCs (in fact it goes down compared to '87 and '96, something that I found pretty surprising at first glance), the increased RR shows that teams are scoring more runs at a faster rate than ever before (better bats, Power Plays). There must have been quite a few 230/5 or 245/6 type 1st innings scores in those previous editions, which simply don't happen anymore.

Top 8 only, by WC

Good spot Neil and good work Athlai and others. Easily debunks the popular theory that you can bat blindfold in the subcontinent and get away with it.
