Point Nine Four

A fresh look at Australian sports through the lens of statistical analysis.

[Tim Newans @TNewans]

Over the past 10 days, 3 of the 5 highest @BBL innings have been scored. After 4 overs, none of these were even in the Top 50. Even more remarkably, the Scorchers (33) were barely higher than the average score after 4 overs (29.8).

After two matches of #BBL11, we only one addition to ScatterBat (Henriques 76 off 38) and one addition to ScatterBowl (Rainbird 1/59), no individual innings was a unique combination in tonight's game.

@jacquietran I'd love to see how it goes! I think it's a really underrated tool in sports analysis

[Point Nine Four @PointNineFour]

On the eve of #BBL11, thought it would be a good time to start tweeting again, firstly to show that our cricket dashboards have been revamped. We will update them after each match and post when new scattergrams or Pareto frontiers are altered. Link: https://t.co/TCDrbiV2mg

Over the coming days it will be updated with the latest season of @WBBL as well as all ODIs, hopefully to add more leagues in the near future.

Seven new additions to ScatterBat last night. For more info, see here: https://t.co/CVBWaFVg47

[Point Nine Four @PointNineFour]

A new addition to ScatterBat and ScatterBowl, the most likely new combination to occur. That is, these are the most likely bowling figures to occur that have not yet occurred in the @BBL.

Scatterbat is back! Scatterbat shows every possible runs/ball faced combination and how often it has occurred. In BBL09 we have seen seven new combinations added so far.

Steve Smith can't score any runs against you if you don't let him bat.

[Point Nine Four @PointNineFour]

Australia's opening partnership today has scored more runs than the total runs for Australia's opening partnership in the whole Ashes series. #AUSvPAK #Ashes @CricketAus

@sirswampthing How often does this occur in modern @AFL? A current player has been playing the whole life of a debutant?

[Tim Newans @TNewans]

If Knights' gun rookie Bradman Best debuts this year, Paul Gallen will have been playing @NRL for the whole of Best's life.

@SportSciData Great work PCA is definitely something that needs more attention in the sports science community! Just as a heads up though, the https://t.co/PJDyY1LUCB link is dead, I had to go through the site to find it.
