A brand new season of IPL 2021 is on its way, and I intend to keep my Shiny app GooglyPlusPlus updated with all the analysis “as-it-happens”. I had written a post earlier Big Data 7: yorkr waltzes with Apache NiFi, where I used my R package yorkr in a NiFi pipeline to automate downloading, converting and generating appropriate data for GooglyPlusPlus. However, using Apache NiFi for daily updates would be an overkill. So, I have created a bash script (with bash,R,python scripts) (possibly scheduled with CRON), which will get daily updates from Cricsheet, convert the yaml files, generate the necessary data files for GooglyPlusPlus in an automated way, using my R package yorkr, and integrate with the Shiny app

Now, you should be able to do detailed analysis of batsmen, bowlers, IPL matches, IPL teams and also do the ranking of the batsmen and bowlers as new data is added on a daily basis. Also remember that GooglyPlusPlus2021 can do similar analysis for all T20 formats (Intl. T20 (men,women), BBL, NTB, PSL, CPL, WBB etc.)

Check out GooglyPlusPlus2021-IPL 2021

I will be keeping the app updated as data becomes available after the match. Do check it out. Here are some random analysis of the 2 completed matches

Important note :

Note: 1) The GooglyPlusPlus2021 Shiny app also includes functions for performing the following analysis namely

  • detailed analysis of batsmen

  • match analysis
  • Head-to-head between 2 IPL teams
  • Analysis of IPL team against all other teams

So do check the other tabs of this app
