The brief

Everyone has IPL opinions. You are going to back yours with numbers.

Get Your Data :

Go to cricsheet.org/matches → click Indian Premier League data → download the JSON format and convert it into csv using python library. ( Only for people who want to learn from scratch as you wont get the data always in csv :P)

Alternatively, you can download the data in csv format form the attachments sections. Each row is one ball bowled — batter, bowler, runs, wicket, match result. Free. No signup.

Answer These Three Things Do teams that win the toss actually win more matches? Which phase — powerplay, middle overs, or death overs — is most linked to winning? Who are the top 5 batters and top 5 bowlers across 5 seasons?

What To Build Chart 1 — two bars showing win rate of toss winners vs toss losers Chart 2 — average runs per phase for winning teams vs losing teams Table — top 5 batters by runs, top 5 bowlers by wickets One sentence — something the data showed you that genuinely surprised you
