Majestic Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Need some suggestions here. But for that let me give some context. I have IT experience in Analytics in terms of building dashboards in tools like Tableau and Power BI. And I personally like crunching stats and cricket data. Now, presently I am happy with my job but over a long run, I wish to switch to cricket analytics. So, 1. What kind of jobs are available in cricket analytics? 2.How and where should I start?

sandeep Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 start doing it. Some time back even cricviz was looking for interns. If you really want to make a career out of it, you will have to out-compete others to get those opportunities. And the way to get them is to start building a body of work. Iterate away, get better at it, and eventually you can find that opening that you can grab and convert into a gig.

Clarke Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 In simple words, break it down. Potential orgs, job profiles, networking, prep as suggested by Sandeep, career roadmap etc. U gotta do all that urself for such niche positions, lucky if u get mentoring. coffee_rules and Majestic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khota Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Sports Analytics is a tough business. Get a graduate degree in that field. You have a Computer/math background and you will do just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikhil_cric Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 You can start out by using cricsheet.org They have large datasets for pretty much every game since 2002. And tweet your analyses and tag folks etc. as Sandeep suggested. If you're lucky, you can work with Cricviz who are pretty the gold standard in cricket analytics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
