STBR Stats

A new version of X-treme Stats is now uploaded. And it features GRAPHS!
Check out the classic bar graph showing players scores per innings over time. Also available for bowling performances.

Graphs can be found in 'Player Profiles' - there is a button on the batting tab, and another on the bowling tab. Very pretty.

At the moment it's just very simple. I just made sure it was working, and showing graphs correctly, but haven't added any detail or bonus features yet. More features to be added to this soon, including the line that shows how the players average changes over time.

First off, you can download the new data file here, which now has the semi-final from Monday night included in it. Just replace the old "data.icd" file with this one.

Victory in the semi-final (against "Just One More", rather than "501" as I thought last week) takes us to the GRAND FINAL next week. Once again at our favourite time of 6:00!

This isn't really a new "version"... it's got nothing new from last time. But the data is now up to date. 4 new matches are in the database from last time - including both matches from tonight. So you can go back and relive, ball-by-ball the glory of G and X making -4 against a D-Grade team. Relive the double-header where we lost to a D-Grade team, and then went and beat the team who's coming 3rd in B-Grade.

So we finish 2nd on the ladder for the season... semi-finals next week, where we will play "501" again in the 2nd v 3rd match. At 6:00.... back to the good ol' time.

By the way, for you interest, our 7:20 and 8:40 double-header tonight broke a streak of 8 consecutive 6:00 matches.

It's the same as last week except that it works this time - and the scorecards now load in about 3-6 seconds, rather than 10-20 seconds. That's all I've had time for this week.

There are a few little things not quite right with the scorecards that need to be fixed. The yellow squares are supposed to indicate who was on strike each ball. But it doesn't seem to be picking up on balls where one player was on strike, but the other player got out (eg run-out). That's very minor - plus I want to think of a better way to show it than bright yellow squares anyway!

It also doesn't add additional balls to overs where extras get rebowled. The "!" symbol indicates that a ball was rebowled, but at the moment it's not adding those extra balls in to the card for you to see. Again, that's a minor thing (except in matches where Andy bowled the final over of course).

And so that inspired me to post "Most Extras Bowled" as the Stat-Of-The-Week. And in fact, it shows that it is not Andy who is king of the wides...

(Edit: it doesn't work... I forgot to change one of my lines of code from the testing version to the for-everyone-else version... so it only works on my home computer... Get the next version instead)

As the 2009/10 season draws to a close, you can now go back and re-live every game

New in this version:
Scorecards! The complete scorecard for every game in the database can now be viewed.

New in this version:
More player stats are now available. You can see how players are dismissed and how they take their wickets, as well as what kinds of scoring shots people play, and have played off their bowling.
You can see, for example, that Rian is the King Of The 7s, being the only player to average more than 1 per innings. Meanwhile, Gareth holds the same title for being run-out (fortunately for him, he rarely gets out any other way).
Most importantly, Rian is no longer known as 'Brian' - I finally decided to change it.

Behind the scenes:
I've been tinkering with the database, and so it now is able to easily track when people are batting or bowling additional times in a match. This means that I'll be able to change the MVP calculator to ensure that someone who bats twice in a game doesn't get incorrectly given an MVP just because they scored twice as many runs as everyone else. Similarly for people who bowl additional overs and may end up with figures of 4 overs 3/50... or something.

Coming next:
Scorecards. This is almost ready to go - next update should have the ability to choose a match and view the full scorecard.

Two more matches worth of scores have been added to the stats. Despite Rian's best attempts to give us all the same name, the umpire gave out enough info to easily put in the stats for this week.
I was going to change his name back to Rian this week, but as punishment for that little name-antics last night, he gets to remain as Brian for another week. When you're good, I'll change it back :)
New in this version: There's not actually any extra functionality that you'll see in this build. I haven't finished anything new to put in yet. You will notice, however, that the data file is now 1.5MB in size - rather than 8.5MB as last week. I realised that all my data I was using for testing was still sitting in there... so I got rid of it all... makes quite a difference!
There's also a now three files making up the program rather than two. The extra file is just a security file for the database... nothing very exciting.

Planned upcoming additions:

• Partnership stats
• Full scorecards
• The rest of the stats in the player profiles
