Superstats, a new platform to analyse the game of cricket, comprises of three metrics. Which of the following is NOT one of them? 

Score Index 

What is Superstats?        
  • Superstats is a new language for numbers-based story-telling in cricket. 
  • The bouquet consists of three elements: 
  • Smart Stats, which puts each batting and bowling performance into context by looking at match situations and player quality. 
  • Luck Index, which - for the first time - quantifies the element of chance in cricket and 
  • Forecaster, which looks the future and predicts win probabilities in each game.
  • These metrics have been derived from ESPNcricinfo's rich ball-by-ball database, and from complex algorithms developed by IIT Madras and Gyan Data, an IIT-M incubated company.
