Research - Outcome of the Extra Delivery in Cricket

One of the Famous No-Ball in the History of Cricket source: SBS

There is a common belief in cricket that extra delivery that is resulted in from No-Ball or Wide in an over will cost more than to the bowling team than to the batting team. This research paper is to verify the above statement. By employing data warehousing techniques, it was proved that there is no basis for this claim. 

You can visit the research paper at ResearchGate

This is the outcome of the extra delivery.


You will see that more than 70% of extra delivery has cost no runs or only one run. only 17% are accounted for boundaries. 

This was done in 2014 and cricket has evolved for half a decade. Therefore, this has to be verified against new data. IPL 2021 data will be used to further verification. Stay tuned!
