Title: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: UmerIdrees on May 30, 2019, 06:28:15 PM I am analyzing if batting first will win more matches or batting second will be more beneficial in the current world cup.
These stats will be helpful for the teams to take the decision on winning the toss and also gamblers can place bet on matches based on the team batting first or second. No. of Matches Won by Batting First : 08 No of Matches Won by Batting Second : 03 Match Date Match Wining Team Bat First / Bat Second No. 1 30-May England vs South Africa Bat First 2 31-May Pakistan vs Windies Bat Second 3 1-Jun New Zealand vs Sri Lanka Bat Second 4 1-Jun Afghanistan vs Australia Bat Second 5 2-Jun Bangladesh vs South Africa Bat First 6 3-Jun England vs Pakistan Bat First 7 4-Jun Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka Bat First 8 5-Jun India vs South Africa Bat First 9 5-Jun Bangladesh vs New Zealand Bat First 10 6-Jun Australia vs Windies Bat First 11 7-Jun Pakistan vs Sri Lanka No Result 12 8-Jun England vs Bangladesh Bat First 13 8-Jun Afghanistan vs New Zealand 14 9-Jun Australia vs India 15 10-Jun South Africa vs Windies 16 11-Jun Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka 17 12-Jun Australia vs Pakistan 18 13-Jun India vs New Zealand 19 14-Jun England vs Windies 20 15-Jun Australia vs Sri Lanka 21 15-Jun Afghanistan vs South Africa 22 16-Jun India vs Pakistan 23 17-Jun Bangladesh vs Windies 24 18-Jun England vs Afghanistan 25 19-Jun New Zealand vs South Africa 26 20-Jun Australia vs Bangladesh 27 21-Jun England vs Sri Lanka 28 22-Jun Afghanistan vs India 29 22-Jun New Zealand vs Windies 30 23-Jun Pakistan vs South Africa 31 24-Jun Afghanistan vs Bangladesh 32 25-Jun England vs Australia 33 26-Jun New Zealand vs Pakistan 34 27-Jun India vs Windies 35 28-Jun Sri Lanka vs South Africa 36 29-Jun Afghanistan vs Pakistan 37 29-Jun Australia vs New Zealand 38 30-Jun England vs India 39 1-Jul Sri Lanka vs Windies 40 2-Jul Bangladesh vs India 41 3-Jul England vs New Zealand 42 4-Jul Afghanistan vs Windies 43 5-Jul Bangladesh vs Pakistan 44 6-Jul India vs Sri Lanka 45 6-Jul Australia vs South Africa 46 9-Jul Qualifier 1 vs Qualifier 4 47 11-Jul Qualifier 2 vs Qualifier 3 48 14-Jul Winners Semi-final 1 vs Winners Semi-final 2 Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: UmerIdrees on May 31, 2019, 01:16:53 PM So we have two matches in the world cup till now and one match is won by batting first while the other match is won by batting second. So it makes it even probability of winning the matches either bating first or second till now.
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: monalia on May 31, 2019, 01:33:15 PM Haha good move for the world cup analysis. I feel that batting 2nd is the best choice the make their winning moment.
I will be bet for New Zealand tomorrow because of their team's potential. Whether they play first and second they will win for sure. Chasing may give some idea for the team playing 2nd innings to perform well with the hard ball. Even weather conditions will be perform on their side only. Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: UmerIdrees on June 01, 2019, 05:59:09 PM I feel that batting 2nd is the best choice the make their winning moment. Yes, the percentage of wining is more while batting second. Still its early stage of the tournament. Only 4 matches have been played out of which only the first match (England vs South Africa) was won by batting first.

Good analysis, I think 4 matches as a reference is not enough for a reference as for probability in winning, but this can still help since out of 4 matches team the chances of winning by batting 2nd is higher. But still, it's a sport, anything can still happen the other way around. Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: traderethereum on June 01, 2019, 10:25:26 PM I think I choose South Africa, England, and Afghanistan to be the winner in the next round ;D
New Zealand could have the potential to win, but we don't know yet. It still a long road to know what team that can win the cricket world cup ;D Although I don't know much about cricket, I guess these sports have big fans too in some countries. Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: onrise on June 02, 2019, 04:48:58 AM The only of those matches I have played money on was the first match where England won. I know too little about cricket to gamble on all the matches, but if I see some good tips and they make sense to me, I will give it a try. England becomes favorite due to the home ground conditions and the support from the fans which they receive it. And also their team this time is very strong and given under any conditions they can play a better cricket batting first or second. Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: Avirunes on June 02, 2019, 06:29:50 AM It would be good to add grounds against the matches. Stats per ground also is a good factor to make a good bet judgement.

Well not everytime say for against good teams but I can say they have advantage over others. Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: akram143 on June 02, 2019, 08:33:12 AM I don't think the Batting or fielding first will not be decides the winning chances of yeah team but the the winning toss will decide everything in most of the time so your analysis is also like that if the team win the toss then the possibility of winning is also available for the team to win
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: UmerIdrees on June 02, 2019, 05:57:38 PM Finally we got a team , Bangladesh, who won by batting first. This make the ratio of bat first or second to 2:3 which is almost even. So there is no advantage of batting first or second until this point of world cup.
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: UmerIdrees on June 05, 2019, 04:49:36 AM With Srilankan winning the match, while batting fist, this now makes Team batting first Wins 4 times while team batting second won three times. We need to analysis few more matches and if it remain even, the winning or losing toss will not be significant in this world cup.
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: UmerIdrees on June 07, 2019, 05:59:06 AM 10 Matches of the World cup are finished and we can clearly see that team batting first has more chances of winning the match than team batting second. This may be because of the pressure of the WC matches makes chase difficult.
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: Duzter on June 07, 2019, 06:32:05 PM That's really a good effort to know the winning probabilities of the matches played on an entire tournament. Though the ground and the weather plays a major part in deciding on the winning of the match, the majority of the winning happens unlike these factors and mostly depend on the teams and the players into it. Anyhow the result will serve as a statistical data.
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: Patatas on June 07, 2019, 06:59:46 PM Absolutely illogical thread. If you had the slightest clue about cricket, you know how weather, ground, the opposite team, and match conditions for that day affect the decision to bat or bowl. Captains can't take that decision based on the previous odds. On a ground that is supposed be good as a bowling pitch, a captain can't choose to bat because previous two teams batting on a totally different grounds. You know nothing about cricket.

Oh really, I have no idea about cricket. :D Before stating this, you should have read my post history as majority of my posts are on the discussion on cricket only. ;D Below are the few discussion threads started by me on cricket only ;) and I know nothing about cricket. :P https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5127946.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5123777.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5108250.0 I know that in cricket there are a lot of factors which decide the decision of batting first or second, but this is also another important factor which cannot be denied. Although batting first or second does not matter much in England, but in many places of the world it does matter. In sub continent, the dew factor comes up which makes the toss, make or break of the match. Anyways still you know everything about cricket, I am just trying to learn and help others in my way. Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: Thanasis on June 08, 2019, 05:49:04 PM If the pitch is assisting bowling then people who are batting forst have the better chance because later part of the game will assist more and more bowlers so batting second will struggle more compared to batting first.SO it means pitches in England are good for the bowlers which is nothing related to batting first or second only pitch decide which is better way to go.
Title: Re: Wining the Toss : Bat Or Bowl In Cricket World Cup Post by: nakamura12 on June 08, 2019, 05:53:39 PM I am not a cricket fan but if I am a bettor of that kind of game i'd bet on the team that has a good match record. Base on op, i think there are more teams who won by batting first and only three teams who won in batting second for now. Let's see if there will be more teams who will win in batting second.

Another explanation is that teams batting first are under no pressure to keep the run rate ticking, but the teams batting second are under pressure to score runs and in that process they keep on losing wickets. In the end I feel it’s all about holding your nerves, and so far teams that have won batting first have hold it better than their counterparts. |
