This blog is a loose assembly of some of the posts I had contributed to RCB website with the username "Observer" during IPL2. The posts were mainly about a "predictive analytical model" I had developed to forecast the semifinalists of IPL2 from Match 29 onwards. Unfortunately the posts have now been removed due to a revamp of RCB website. I have tried to recreate some of the posts based on my model "just to give a flavor of what it was all about". You may see more in IPL3.
