A Statistical Analysis On Bowling Performance Of Player In Professional Cricket

Abstract

Measuring the performance of the bowler according to wickets taken is the natural way ofquantifying their performance. Apart from it, the situation at which they scored is the match-winning event. The performance of a bowler could evaluate by determining the ability to takewickets against strong batting line up. In this paper, we present an analysis of the performanceof a bowler. Many parameters play a key role in analyzing the bowling performance. These include venue conditions, extras runs, the number of dismissals, type of dismissal of a batsman,especially during power-play and death-over. The testing supports the hypothesis with 95%confidence interval for the first, death and power-play over and also not found any evidence inthe data for finding the equal probability for fall of wickets in both the innings.
