“…Typical game-prediction algorithms use numerous inputs representing the player, the team, the cricket ground, the weather, and other off filed statistics. According to the literature, some of the most frequently used performance indicators in ODI game-prediction are home-field advantage (Bailey and Clearke, 2006;Paul and Stephen, 2002), the result of the coin toss (De Silva and Swartz, 1997;Dawson et al, 2009), day/night effect (De Silva and Swartz, 1997), the effect of bowling (Lemmer, 2008) and batting (Kimber and Hansford, 1993;Koulis et al, 2014;Lemmer, 2008;Lewis, 2005;Scarf et al, 2011;Tan and Zhang, 2001;Wickramasinghe, 2015). In addition to the incorporation of large volume of variables and factors used in game-prediction, the dynamic nature of the game makes the prediction process a daunting task.…”
