Duckworth/Lewis - T20 revamp needed?

The mathematical equivalent is actually a target of 84 runs in 6 overs but our new concepts have been developed to input reality which brings it down to 80 runs in 6 overs. We actually take an average score and...well, I'll talk later once we upload the entire T20 documentation...

But whatever you say, 80 runs in 6 overs is achievable...People didn't think that 350 in 50 overs was achievable but you now it is...people didn't think 200 in 20 overs was possible because they were used to seeing about 225 getting scored in a 50 over game....if you have games of such duration like 6 overs, you'll see teams scoring 80 runs in at least 5-10% of the games. Similar is the probability of 191 in 20 overs.

Yash, it is pointless for me to keep restating my point as we are going in circles. Whilst you may think 80 off six overs is a relatively reasonable target, in reality it is not and few teams will get close to such a target. Looking at Twenty20 games currently many sides struggle to score 60 off six overs with full fielding restrictions in place so scoring 80 runs with maybe only one over of restrictions is going to be almost impossible.

Whilst you can argue that a target of 80 is a reasonable and fair target, scoring at 13.33 runs per over with almost no field restrictions is a lot bigger ask than making 9.55 runs per over with six overs of fielding restrictions to play with.

Fielding restrictions% remains the same...its 2 out of 6 or 6 out of 20....so that is nothing to discuss about

Whatever, we'll leave this argument for now as it is endless! :)

Hey everyone,

Check out our newly launched website at:
Yank's Model

There is a separate T20 Analysis at:
T20 Cricket Comparative Analysis Yank's Model

The website contains our Advanced Method(the earlier web page had the basic one) with a lot of new concepts introduced while calculating scores. So send us you fresh feedback!

We had this ready about 15 days ago but our IT guy was out of town...so it took a while to get the site launched!
