My first post on here and after the incredible World Cup thought I would post some stats for the upcoming Vitality Blast.
May be useful, may not be, but just a very basic look at the 20 over form of the game. (Stats taken over the last 5 years)

Graph above shows a basic % chance of the team batting first winning based on their innings score (Excludes limited overs i.e less than a full first innings)

Good stuff, I need to study analytics side of cricket more than I do. The Blast appeals as its less likely to be marred by corruption than some of the other T20 leagues imho

Very basic stuff but shows what can be found with limited time. Hopefully someone finds it useful, or if nothing else informative.

The log reg graph again is at a very basic level but just a guide.

Graph below shows first innings scores by ground in UK T20s (last 5 seasons). Will do this by Home/Away team batting first, should be more informative.

The first TV game is on Thursday .. Notts v Worcs.

This is the scorcard from cricinfo :

https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/805 ... blast-2018

Here is a graph of the game :

Notts 4 Aug 2018 v Worcs.jpg
I also attach a excel file with data split into 100 intervals.

The file is a work in progress, but I just havent the time to devote to it.

Maybe we can all help each other .. or at least .. find some who want to.

Similar excel files are available for games where the Betfair History allows.

The file is 2 games .. I presume the 2nd game was T20. I think the first must have been RLODC .. but havent checked.

I am rushing out now .. will explain better later .. but basically slice 1 starts from in-play 1 sec, till slice 100, which is end of in-play time.

(( Fuck this .. cant upload a xlsm file .. will have to do it later)) sorry

Just a few simple charts showing In-Play odds of last seasons opening day of the Vitality Blast. Leicestershire traded at a whopping 55 and still came back to win!

Not quite as detailed as Megarain's previous charts but just gives an idea.

Here (hopefully) is a xlsx file of Nottinghams home games in 2018, where over 1m was traded.

The in-play game time is split into 100 slices .. so, for a 180 min game, each slice is maybe 90 seconds.

The in-play high/low within that time slice is shown etc.

Another version of this file, has macros enabled, which was a route I was going down to data mine strategies .. but, I cant seem to upload a excel
file with macros .. so, lets try this.
