At the very least Duckworth/Lewis are paid just for purchasing the proffesional version of their product that gives their proper figures. They would most likely charge to use it on the larger scale as well as they would be stupid not to.
Copyright your work immediately. If somebody takes a fancy to it and manage to get their hands on it then you won't have a Yank method anymore.
The Jayadevan method rose up in popularity due to their potrayl in the media. As you've already done, keep emailing journalists for a start.
Re: Challenger to the Duckworth Lewis Method and the Jayadevan Method
Hello guys....this is ANKIT...the joint creator of the 'Yank model'....
This 1 is the most latest comparison 4 u to evaluate........
In the Friends Provident T20 2nd semi final between Nottinghamshire(Notts) and Somerset played at Southampton on the 14th Aug 2010, Somerset batting first scored 182/5 in 20 overs. It rained in the interval and left Notts only 16 overs to bat in which the D/L which used in the match set a target of 152 runs. It rained once again in the 13 overs in which Notts were 117/4 in 13 overs. D/L target for 4 wickets at the 13 overs was 121 runs. So Somerset won by 3 runs.
16 over Target
Yank Method 161
D/L Method 152*
VJD Method 160
*D/L method gives an irrationally low target.
13 over
for 4 wkts Target
Yank Method 124
D/L Method 121
VJD Method 116
Summary
Result
Yank Method Somerset won by 6runs
D/L Method Somerset won by 3runs
VJD Method Nottinghamshire won by 2 runs*
*VJD’s deflated target is because of the sluggish fall of wickets. At this point of the match, VJD’s fall of wickets is sluggish till the fall of the 5th wicket, then there is a major impact on the target on the fall of the sixth wicket. On the other hand if the team was 117/0 the target would have not changed even by a run(the difference would be in just decimals) which is hard to fathom.
And you can just see what a major impact this flaw has made to the match. If VJD’s method would have been used, Nottinghamshire would have won the semi-final and thus qualified for the final leaving Somerset out of the tournament which would not hav been fair at all.
So even the Yank model deals with resources remaining. We still haven't put up the details on the computation part as we've not completed the process of patenting.I remain to be convinced, I'm afraid. Not sure how you can factor in the pace of the fall of wickets. The D/L resources remaining basis seems most reliable to me.
