IPL TEAMS STRIKE GOLD WITH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

CASE FACTS IPL represents not only cricket but also a big business deal . For e.g. in IPL

the players are paid nearly 20 lakhs to 14 crore per year depending on his experience and his stature .

During a 59 game season , a coach can pick up about a weakness in an opponent’s offense or the shots of one of his own players will translate into more runs on the scoreboard , more wins and ultimately more win for the team.

Traditional cricket statistics failed to capture all the details associated with every play and was not easily related to video tapes of games.

The software available with Indian team was very generic and did not produce any analytical information .

A company called Sports Mechanics has found a way to collect and organize fine-grined statistical data and relate the data to associate video clip .

• Each game is dissected and tagged , play by play using 100’s of descriptive categories and this date is linked to high resolution video .

• The service helps coaches analyze the strengths and weakness of individual players.

• Mr. S Ramkrishnan , the indian cricket analyst and the founder of sports mechanics has since 2003 helped over 5000 cricketers and provided analysis and software to ICC and 21 countries.
