Continuing my question, when the cricket teams think of analysts, they release openings for Performance or Data (data-entry) Analyst, which is rare and mostly used for bowling in nets and motivation stuff.

Have you seen T20/T10 teams having posts as recruitment analyst or bringing in a recruitment analyst,

i. Is there such a position ('Recruitment Analyst') and do they consider analysts for recruitment process only?

ii. Do they hire freelance analysts like you in high quantity or the companies, specifically for the auction/draft planning stuff?

Great column Dan, and appreciate your answer to my question! I think IPL will benefit if groundskeepers work to create some of that home advantage you spoke about. #NoMore6HittingExhibitions

Absolutely fascinated by your assessment of Arshdeep's auction outlook. Fun player but I think neither historical auction trends nor Arshdeep's track record lead me to your conclusion. If he indeed gets up to 15+ crore, I suspect a lot of my assumptions about the auction will not be correct!
