Fascinating talk about data in sport (with lots of football) by Patrick Lucey. Masterful. 👏

Here are the 1st innings score predictions for NZ. Pre-game we predicted 260 for NZ, with ~10% chance of scoring less than 135. Lowest prediction was a score of 84 at the 24.5 over mark. This was just after the Jamieson wicket when NZ were 45-7. (2/2)

A very simple chase for Cricket Australia against Sri Lanka Cricket 🇱🇰. When SL were 100-1 off 11.4 overs, we predicted their final total at 182 with a win prob ~62%. They only managed 128. The 13th over alone dropped SL's win prob from ~50% to ~32% (Hazlewood's 3 wickets). #SLvAus
