IPL Data Analysis using

Python
Data Visualization and Insights
What is Sports Analytics?

Data analysis transforms raw numbers


into strategic insights. In sports,
analytics helps teams optimise
performance, identify patterns, and
make data-driven decisions.

The IPL, with over 15 years of match


data, provides rich opportunities to
apply statistical methods and
visualisation techniques to understand
cricket dynamics.

Outlier Detection Method

Interquartile Range (IQR)


The IQR method identifies outliers by
calculating the range between the first quartile
(Q1) and third quartile (Q3).
Data points outside 1.5 × IQR are classified as
outliers, helping identify exceptional
performances and data quality issues.
