This is the fourth and final part of my Python package yorkpy. In this part yorkpy, the python avatar of my R package yorkr see Introducing cricket package yorkr: Part 1- Beaten by sheer pace!, develops wings and is prepared for take-off. The yorkpy package uses data from Cricsheet

You can clone/download the code at Github yorkpy
This post has been published to RPubs at yorkpy-Part4
You can download this post as PDF at IPLT20-yorkpy-part4
You can download all the data used in this post and the previous post at yorkpyData

This post is a continuation of the earlier posts on yorkpy

1. Pitching yorkpy . short of good length to IPL – Part 1 In this part I included functions that convert the yaml data of IPL matches into Pandas dataframe which are then saved as CSV. This part can perform analysis of individual IPL matches. Note The converted data is available at yorkpyData
2. Pitching yorkpy.on the middle and outside off-stump to IPL – Part 2 This part included functions to create a large data frame for head-to-head confrontation between any 2IPL teams says CSK-MI, DD-KKR etc, which can be saved as CSV. Analysis is then performed on these team-2-team confrontations. Note The converted data is available at yorkpyData
3. Pitching yorkpy.swinging away from the leg stump to IPL – Part 3 The 3rd part includes the performance of any IPL team against all other IPL teams. The data can also be saved as CSV.Note The converted data is available at yorkpyData

Note: If you would like to do a similar analysis for a different set of batsman and bowlers, you can clone/download my skeleton yorkpy-template from Github (which is the R Markdown file I have used for the analysis below).

This 4th and final part includes analysis of batting and bowling performances of any IPL player. The batting and bowling details for all teams have already been converted and are available at IPLT20-Batting-BowlingDetails

This part includes the following new functions

This can be saved as a csv file with name as for e.g. Delhi Daredevils-BattingDetails.csv.

dir1= "C:\\software\\cricket-package\\yorkpyIPLData\\data3"
#csk_details = yka.getTeamBattingDetails("Chennai Super Kings",dir=dir1, save=True)
