IPL 2020 - Performance Above Average in the League Stage
Who are the best performers accounting for context?
I described a Runs Above Average and Wins Above Average measure in this recent article.
The RAA is the difference of a batsman’s runs scored or bowler’s runs conceded and the average score in the situation. So, for each combination of (wickets down, innings phase, ground), I calculate the average runs scored per ball, and then subtract that from a player’s runs scored (or conceded). Adding this over all balls in a season gives the season RAA.
This can be converted into an impact on the player’s team’s win percentage. I report a Wins Above Average corresponding to an RAA value, which is defined as the wins earned above the average player in a 14-match season.
In the following tables, I have reported Season RAA, RAA per Ball, RAA per Inns, and WAA.
At the end, I’ve linked the full sortable tables.
