ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
This has been a great opportunity to link a real life problem with a classroom briefing.
First of All I would like to thank my honorable supervisor Ms. Shakila Yasmin, Assistant Professor,
Institute of Business Administration for assigning this topic and explain insight of this topic to us.

Regression Analysis: How Runs are Scored by Bangladesh Cricket Team

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report is prepared as an integral part of EMBA Program. The main objective of this report is to carry
out a Linear Programming case study. Thus, the topic for the report, Regression Analysis: How Runs are
scored by Bangladesh Cricket Team? was chosen to work on.
Managers everyday faces problem which requires analysis of data to some extent and when analysis
matters we need to know some statistical tools. One common statistics tools is Regression Analysis. As a
manager we often tasked with find out what has impacted our profit or production or schedule or supply
chain most to do that we firstly need to understand how the faction of profit or production or supply chains
are associated. To what extent they explain the changes in the outcome. Once we have understood that
then we can take any measures to improve that situation.
Here in this report first I have tried to put the scenario of batting performance of Bangladesh cricket team
where we were failing to score big runs hence we have lost 625 of the matches in the period of 2010 2014. I have tried to put the problem in simplistic way so that it is easily understandable by readers.
As the report progress I tried to describe component of regression analysis and also the dependent and
independent variables from the case itself. Using multiple linear regression method and with excel data
analysis too I have tried to show how the independent variables are related to the dependent variables. I
have also shown how much the independent variable affects or relates to the Total Run Scored.
In the next part I have interpreted the result to see how much Bangladesh will run given the independent
variables do not perform well or at 0. Also I have showed among those six factors what factor have
significant relationship with the total run scored and what are the order from other factors in terms of
relationship with Total run scored.
Later and final part of the report says about the summarized finding and what Bangladesh cricket team
should do well to make big scores.

Regression Analysis: How Runs are Scored by Bangladesh Cricket Team

CHAPTER 1
Background of the study
During the course K501 Quantitative Analysis for Managers of EMBA program regression analysis was
discussed in the class by our instructor, Ms. Shakila Yasmin, Assistant Professor. To complete our
knowledge and understanding about Regression Analysis this assignment was assigned. This report is
prepared and presented to fulfill that requirement of the course.
We in our work filed everyday faces situations when we need to measure which is influencing our profit,
sales, production or even employee motivation. To do that we need to know how these relationship works
and sometime we need to know exactly how much anything is influencing our decision. This concept is
Regression and to measure that relationship better we need to know the Regression concept well.
To present the case I have choose to work on Bangladesh Cricket Team performances in last 40 years and
wanted to show how some of the variables are related to the Total Runs Scored by Bangladesh in ODI
matches.

Objective of the Report


Primary objective for this report was to fulfill partial criterion of the course K501 Quantitative Analysis
for Managers. However with that objective there were these below objectives as well:

Understanding of the Regression Analysis Concept


Understanding Business Implication of Regression Analysis
Working with a real life case which would present opportunity to learn to solve these problems in
daily operations
Mastering the use of Data Analysis tool pack of excel to solve Linear Programming

Methodology
Data is collected from primary source, here all the data used are the actual scores and data from matches
of Bangladesh Cricket team. (Archive, 2015) These data were extracted from the match scorecard then
complied to make each variables. To extract 65 variables scorecard from 65 matches were taken.
We have chosen multiple linear regression as there are more than one independent variables and the data
follows the basic assumptions of linear regression.1 Once this is determined we formulate the data.

Page

After formulation of data the task was to define confidence level for that 95% of confidence level was
selected as my expectations is that this result would be reflecting 95% of the parameter of all Bangladesh
Cricket Teams matches.
Once we have decided the confidence level the next task was to put these data into Microsoft Excel and
use Data Analysis tool pack to get the output.

1
Assumptions of Linear Regression are
Validity
Additivity and linearity
Independence of errors
Equal variance of errors
Normality of errors

CHAPTER 2
What is Regression Analysis?
Regression Analysis is a statistical tool to measure the extent of relations among the variables. Primarily it
focuses on the relationship between independent and dependent variable by applying techniques for
modelling variables to see the relationship. We business managers are more interested in how the
dependent variable changes when any of the independent variable changes or varies given other variables
are remained same. (Wikipedia, 2015)
This is a normal Linear Regression equation with one dependent and one independent variables:
=

Equation 1: Basic regression equation

Here,
= predicted value of dependent variables
a = is the intercept of the regression line
b = coefficient of variables in other words it is the slope of regression equation

Use of Regression Analysis


Regression Analysis is a daily tool for business, it helps managers in many ways like seeing what is
contributing most to the profit, what factor is most important to employee performance, whether
production is influenced by availability of raw materials or run time of machine? All these questions can be
answered by Regression Analysis. Below are the areas of where regression can be used: (Giulio Rocca, ,
2015)

Historical Analysis: Most common and fundamental use of regression in Business. In business we
often want to analyze the impact of a particular spending or decision on the bottom line hence we
need to use regression on the historical data.
Testing Hypothesis: In business we also use regression for testing hypothesis, these are like in
business we often think that certain variables are causing declining trend in profit. To test this
belief we might want to test whether those variables are actually be blamed for declining profit.
Forecasting: Another use of regression is in forecasting future data based on the present data.
Once we have the relationship explained from Regression Analysis and found the coefficient for
each variable we can then forecast the data from a future period.

Apart from these regression also used heavily in healthcare, pharmaceutical, sports and education sector.
This case particularly focuses on the use of regression analysis in sports sector.

Learning of Regression from Managerial Prospective:

Page

As manager came up with the problem on daily basis it wont be wrong to say that Managers who are
working on Finance, Planning, Production and Supply chain regression is a great tool to be an expert on.
With regression analysis a manager can solve problem from these area with significant level of preciseness
and with lesser difficulty. From the results or solution of regression analysis manager can have idea of the
relationship between independent and dependent variables and also is says about how to fine tune the
inputs to change output.

CHAPTER 3
Problem Case Case Study of Bangladesh Cricket Team
Bangladesh cricket team has been playing ODI cricket since 1997, after 14 years they havent progressed
as they were supposed to. Between 2010 and 2014 Bangladesh cricket team has played 65 matches and
their winning rate was 38%. Knowing the capability team management expected this to be around 60%.
These below table shows performances of Bangladesh for 2010 2014

Table 1: Bangladesh Team performance from 2010 to 2014

Team management identifies batting performance of the team to be accountable for these results. Since
IPL was started in 2008 cricket has emerged as Batsman game and game of batting performance. So the
Bangladesh team management also wanted to see improvement in their batting performances.
Between 2010 and 2014 Bangladeshs batting hasnt clicked that well they have only scored average of 211
runs in their 65 matches. This performance was not enough in matching performance from the opponents.
So Bangladesh Team management wanted to see what contribute most in making runs. So they have
chosen these variables to measure their contribution in the total run.2

Taking these variables into consideration team management wanted to see how these variable affect total
run scored and if these variables are affecting performances what are the extent of that influence. To see
this we have taken data from 65 matches played from June, 2010 to August, 2014. These data are in below:

This problem has underlying hypothesis that all the coefficient are equal to zero (0) which means that the
variables has no effect on the dependent variable. And the alternate hypothesis is that the independent
variable has effect on the Dependent variable thus coefficients are not equal to zero (0). This is written as
H0 = b1 = b2 = b3 = b4 = b5 = b6 = 0
Or

HA = bi 0

CHAPTER 4
Regression Analysis Output
Once we have run the excel to analyze these data we have will have a result which will say if these variables
explains the runs scored by Bangladesh well and what are the significance of this result. Also this result will
tell how each variable impact Run Scored and whether that relation are by chance or not.

REGRESSION STATISTICS
This below table tells us about how variables are related to each other, how much of the variability in the
dependent variable are explained by the movement in the independent variable and it also tell us about
the standard variability in the estimated and actual values of dependent variable. The most important
values in this table are Multiple R and Adjusted R Square. We will consider Adjusted R Square because this
is comparatively better measure of coefficient of determination as this is the sample size adjusted value.

ANOVA TABLE
This ANOVA table also known as variance table, this table give us the significance of this regression and
also tells us whether this solution occurred randomly. Because if the solution has occurred randomly then
the variable may not be associated with the changes in dependent variable. This table also helps to verify
if the model is significant enough. Also this says about which hypothesis will be accepted.

This Coefficient table below explain the strength of relationship with individual variable and also says
whether these relationship are statistically valid.

RESIDUAL TABLE
For Every predicted value there will be a actual value and these values will differ from one another. So for
every observations or data we will get a residual values. These residual values are important in
understanding the pattern of the data and also useful to know as it will detect the nature of the problem
(Linearity or Non Linearity).

Table 6: Table of Residuals

Interpretation of the Result:


From the regression table we can say that STRONG positive correlation exists between independent and
dependent variables. Also we see that 85% of the variability is explained by the variability in the
independent variable which interpret as 85% variability or movement in Total Runs Scored are explained
by the variability in 50 + Partnership, Run in First 10 Over, Run Scored Between 35 - 50 Over, Run by Shakib,
Run by Musfiq and Run by First 4 Batsman.
Also actual Total runs can vary by 23 runs from the estimated Total Runs Scored. We can say from the F
value that the null hypothesis are rejected that means independent variables have certain degree of
association with the dependent variable and changes in the dependent variables can be explained by the
movement in the independent variables.

F value (61.24) is greater than the Critical value 2.25 Null hypothesis was rejected

Coefficient table shows how each variables and also tells about the height of the regression line. We see
that the constant is 71.87 here which means that Total Runs Scored will be at least 72 even there is no 50+

In this regression we have selected 95% of confidence level that leaves significance level at 5% and the
Significance F value we get is far below our selected significance level which interprets as the results are
not random or occurred by chance.

partnership, No run in First 10 overs, No run between 35 50 overs, No run by Shakib, No run by Musfiq
and no run by first 4 batsman. For this constant as P value is less than the Significance Level ( = .05) and
t-Stat falls in the rejection area we can say that this constant is not random or didnt occurred by chance
and Null hypothesis of no impact on the Total Runs Scored is rejected.
All the variables 50+ partnership, Run in First 10 overs, Run between 35 50 overs, Run by Shakib, Run by
Musfiq and Run by first 4 batsman are positively related to the Total Runs Scored and are not random or
occurred by chance.
Strongest variable among those are 50+ Partnership, if there is one 50+ Partnership in the innings Total
Runs Scored will increase by 13.85 or 14. For each one run scored for Run in First 10 Overs, Run between
35 50 overs, Run by Shakib, Run by Musfiq and Run by first 4 batsman will increase Total Run Scored by
Bangladesh 0.58 , 0.88 , 0.25 , 0.22 , 0.25 respectively. From this we can sort the variables by their strength
of relationship with dependent variable as below:
Variables

0.58

Run by Shakib
Run by First 4 Batsman

0.25
0.25

Run by Musfiq

0.22

Table 7: Table of Variables and their Coefficient sorted as per their strength

From this table we can see that runs scored between 35 - 50 over are significant than run scored in first 10
overs. This is a fact of modern cricket that team wants a slow but steady start which they can capitalize in
the later overs. Also we see significance of run scored by Shakib and first four batsman are equal which
signifies the important role played by Shakib in the team and failures in our top order.
From the residuals we have plotted this this graphs where we can see that data are have heteroscedasticity
and there are some extreme values at both positive and negative ends. Also the trend line drawn here says
that the data have non-linearity.
The residuals does not have any trend, so we can say that the slope of the regression line was computed
correctly. Also residuals do not have any trend also their average is not zero, the intercept of the regression
line was computed correctly. So we can say that the regression line do not have any error and correct.

CHAPTER 5
Findings
As we have discussed about the variables and their relationship between Independent and Dependent one,
we have seen how dependent variable is being explained by the Independent one and also we have seen
how much each variable contributes to the Total Runs Scored. Bit by bit we have reached to the regression
equation which enable us to see different how different values for our Independent variable will affect the
Total Run Scored. Below we can sum up all these with this points:

There is 93% relationship between Independent and Dependent variables


85% of the variability in the dependent variable can be explained by the variability in independent
variable.
The regression model is reject the null hypothesis and results are significant and did not occurred
by chance.
All the independent variables do have positive relationship with dependent variables
No variables coefficient has not occurred by chance or randomly
If all the independent variables are at 0 even then total Runs Scored would be 72
50+ Partnership has the strongest relationship among the variables
There is a randomness in the data which makes this problem suggest that Linear Regression
method could be used

Recommendation:
Team management wanted to see how this features of Bangladesh batting is associated with the total runs
scored by the team. As now they have found the association and the extent of relationship for each
variables to the total runs scored they would be in better position to improve the areas needed to score
more runs.

Page

12

For this case they want to focus on partnership building as partnership of 50+ has the most significant
relationship with the total runs scored. Also they should focus on the runs coming in the 35 50 over as
well as first 10 over. If Bangladesh could work well in this area it is likely that will have a big score. 86% of
Total Runs can be explained by the changes in this 6 features of batting so Bangladesh should be motivated
to work on this toward improving their batting performance.
