“…The derivation of the model likelihood for a single innings follows the method detailed in Brewer (2008) and Stevenson and Brewer (2017, 2018). If X ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3,…} is the number of runs a batsman scores in a particular innings, we define a hazard function , H ( x ) ∈ [0,1], as the probability a batsman gets out on score x , that is, H ( x ) = P ( X = x | X ≥ x ).…”
