Inspiration

I’d like to call the attention of my fellow Kagglers to use Machine Learning and Data Sciences to help me explore these ideas:

• Who is the best-avg player in whole PSL?
• Visualize boundary hitting frequency
• Visualize Six hitting frequency
• Find a correlation between venue and runs with toss winners
• Find a correlation between batting averages, strike rate and consistency
• Find any hidden patterns that are counter-intuitive for a layman
• Can we predict after what no. of innings Baber Azam can hit 50 in PSL ?
