Abstract

The paper proposes a novel concept called the Net Relative Run Ratio (NRRR) as an alternative to the currently used Net Run Rate (NRR) for evaluating the "degree of authority" of match wins in limited-over cricket. It aims to provide a more nuanced assessment of team performance. In essence, the paper proposes that NRRR offers a more comprehensive and fairer evaluation of team performance in limited-over cricket by accounting for aspects that NRR overlooks, ultimately leading to a more authoritative ranking of teams.
